Barbra Streisand - Don't Lie to Me (Official Lyric Video)

This video appeared in my Facebook feed today (May 1, 2020) and I thought at first that this must be a new piece by "Babs". Upon further inspection it was posted onto YouTube  on October 9, 2018 which is around the time that #45 decimated the Pandemic Emergency Response Team and cut funding to the Center for Disease Control.
The lyrics in the song and the content in the video are very powerful and gave me goosebumps with  its powerful imagery.  It goes over everything that has been said about #45 including a vivid visual image of the on-going tally of how many lies this individual has told the public. It feels as if he is of a mind frame that quite frankly escapes my comprehension..."why tell the truth when a lie will do."
"Babs'" voice is in full blown surge and hits her notes impeccably like the professional that she is.  Her voice has a way of sucking one in and pulling them into her song's essence and takes you on a journey into the realm of her chosen subject.  In this case the subject is #45 whose legacy will go down in history text books as the greatest failure in American history and a bigger disaster than the "Edsel" car.
The imagery that "Babs" has chosen to tell her story is quite engaging and memorable which deserves an award just for this part of the content. Her talent is above reproach and is iconic in its steadfast course to tell her story.  Relax, close your eyes and understand what you are hearing and appreciate the talent that has gone into it.
As of this date most of us have pretty much had it with #45 and hold him responsible for the COVID-19 unrelenting assault upon the citizens of the United States as well as the world. #45 did nothing but lie and play down the real danger that this "plague"  has cast and it's devious effects upon any poor soul who "catches" it.
Someone posted an interesting question the other day on social media.  They asked "What have you learned about yourself during the quarantine."  My answer was "I have discovered that I am a Darwinist."  Shocked me to think of myself as that, but it is what it is.
