We all cope in different ways. If you’re Barbra Streisand, that means smothering pancakes in spools of maple syrup and eating them all up.
The pop icon took to Twitter on March 4 to vent her frustration at Donald Trump, who she claims is personally responsible for her packing on the pounds.
“Donald Trump is making me gain weight,” she writes. “I start the day with liquids, but after the morning news, I eat pancakes smothered in maple syrup!”
Later on in the day, Streisand once again confirmed that she had Trump and pancakes on her mind:
How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
“Trump just accused Obama of tapping his phones,” she writes. “Seriously crazy times. Time for more pancakes.”

Don’t tell her not to fly. Do tell her to pass the syrup.

May I recommend Parker’s Maple Syrup? (https://www.parkersmaple.com) I think it is the best and the owners story is amazing. Might as well use the best syrup.

Dear Queerty,
I didn’t sign up for this site to see all this Trump bashing. Stick to the porno and leave the politics alone! I find it so disgusting how you LOOK for ways to put a shit story on here about how bad the President is as a person or what he does in office. Apparently, a whole bunch of us voted for him or he wouldn’t be President. Even without those articles for filler, your site doesn’t offer much any more. It used to have some very good things to SEE . . . .

Trump represents their failures under Obama.

Mick406, a whole bunch of you may have voted for him, but not enough to actually be a majority. If you don’t like what Queerty publishes, move on. Trump is a total buffoon and unfit to be President.

So, so, so many gay people voted for Trump it’s ridiculous. Ridiculously fabulous that is. I sure did.

It’s true. Pancakes and syrup are the most fattening. I went thru this myself recently. Waffles are good too. The pounds just jump on ya. It’s an inch away from a trough as Bette Midler said. I don’t even bother with a knife and fork anymore I just pick up the dish.

Fat old ladies overeating is Trump’s fault, too?
Derangement has officially overtaken the left.

Liberals are in total disarray. While Trump is remaking the world, the left is moaning about pancakes making them fat. And of course it isn’t THEIR fault, it ‘s someone else’s fault.

Queerty should change their name to Trump Daily. Its one thing to bash and criticize Trump which is perfectly fine in my book but seems like this site has an un healthy obsession with Trump that they have even stopped reporting real LGBT news. Over the past week I have come across many news about Transgender people being murdered yet not one report on here on this site shameful!

Funny, though I have loved her to death for half a century I have to part ways with Barbra on this matter. Any mention of vision of Trumplethinskin and I lose my appetite. Which is just as well as it leaves me with no lunch to lose.

So now fat women are blaming their unattractive looks and poor diet on Donald Trump?

As they lose credibility with every “protest,” they abandon discussion in favor of vacuous accusations . . . and liberals treat it as “news.”
