Showing Original Post only (View all)Bruce Springsteen Calls Out 'Unfit President' Trump Again, Says Elected Reps 'Utterly Failed to Protect the American [View all]
PeopleBruce Springsteen resumed denouncing Donald Trump from the stage of his Land of Hopes and Dreams Tour Saturday night (May 17) in Manchester, England.
The Los Angeles Times reports the Boss didnt back down from his stance on Trump this weekend, after the U.S. president called Springsteen highly overrated, dumb as a rock and a dried out prune of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) in a post on Truth Social. The rant was Trumps reaction to the musician calling out the presidents corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration at his tour opener earlier in the week.
Things are happening right now that are altering the very nature of our countrys democracy, and theyre too important to ignore, Springsteen said to the crowd in a three-minute speech on Manchesters Co-op Live stage on Saturday, as heard in a video posted by the L.A. Times.
In my home, theyre persecuting people for their right to free speech and voicing their dissent. Thats happening now, Springsteen said, echoing what hed spoken about at his May 14 show. In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction in abandoning the worlds poorest children to sickness and death. Thats happening now. In my country, theyre taking sadistic pleasure in the pain they inflict on loyal American workers.

No, this tour was planned more than a year ago. I think Springsteen's speaking out is real and in the moment. nt
