Barbra Streisand put her feelings about Donald Trump into song Friday night.
At an LGBT fundraiser for Hillary Clinton Friday, the singer performed a parody of the Stephen Sondheim song "Send in the Clowns" with lyrics about the Republican nominee.
"Is he that rich, maybe he's poor, 'til he reveals his returns, who can be sure?" Streisand sang to an applauding crowd of about 1,000. "Something's amiss, I don't approve, if he were running the free world, where would we move?"

The event raised money for the Hillary Victory Fund, a joint fundraising committee between Clinton's campaign, the Democratic National Committee and state parties. Contributions ranged from $1,200 to over $250,000.
Streisand included renditions of "People," ''Pure Imagination" and "Happy Days Are Here Again."
