Bruce Springsteen Finally Says How He Feels When Trump Insults Him

“I absolutely couldn’t care less what he thinks about me,” the rock legend told Time magazine in a story published Thursday. “He’s the living personification of what the 25th Amendment and impeachment were for. If Congress had any guts, he’d be consigned to the trash heap of history.”

“If I’m going to stay true to who I’ve tried to be… I can’t give these guys a free pass,” Springsteen told Time. “A lot of people bought into his lies.… He doesn’t care about the forgotten anybody but himself and the multibillionaires who stood behind him on Inauguration Day.”

“You have to face the fact that a good number of Americans are simply comfortable with his politics of power and dominance,” Springsteen concluded.

The president and Springsteen won’t be dancing in the dark any time soon.

On the first date of his European tour in May, Springsteen said America “is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration.” He also asked democracy lovers to “raise your voices against the authoritarianism, and let freedom ring.”

Trump wrote back on Truth Social that Springsteen was “HIGHLY OVERRATED,” “dumb as a rock” and “a JERK” whose skin had “atrophied.” He also told the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer to “KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT.”

“We’re desperately in need of an effective alternative party, or for the Democratic Party to find someone who can speak to the majority of the nation,” he said. “There is a problem with the language that they’re using and the way they’re trying to reach people.”
