Richard Johnson: Cher, Barbra Streisand vow -- again -- to leave US if Trump elected

Streisand recently told late-night host Stephen Colbert, “I will move. I can’t live in this country if he became president.”
Cher told The Guardian, “If he gets in, who knows? This time I will leave (the country).”
Empty promises. They both claimed they’d emigrate if Trump won in 2017, and both stayed in America, along with 18 other Hollywood stars who had vowed to move abroad, including Samuel L. Jackson, Miley Ray Cyrus, Bryan Cranston, Whoopi Goldberg, George Lopez and Chelsea Handler.

The Ramos Foundation’s annual Winter Gala Fundraiser will be held Nov. 30 at Russo’s on the Bay in Howard Beach honoring Police Commissioner Edward Caban, Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey, and lawyer Arthur Aidala, who helped Maritza create the foundation.
