Bruce Springsteen calls Trump admin. ‘incompetent, and treasonous’ at UK show

In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration in America. They are persecuting people for using their right to free speech and voicing their descent. This is happening now in America. The richest men are taking satisfaction and abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death. This is happening [Music] now in my country. They’re taking sadistic pleasure in the pain that they inflict on loyal American workers. They’re rolling back historic civil rights legislation that led to a more just and plural society. They’re abandoning our great allies. and siding with dictators against those struggling for their freedom. A majority of our elected representatives have failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. They have no concern or idea of what it means to be deeply American. The America that I’ve sung to you about for 50 years is real and regardless of its faults is a great country with a great people. So we’ll survive this moment.

Musician Bruce Springsteen launched his 2025 Land of Hope and Dreams European tour in Manchester, England on Wednesday with a fiery speech condemning President Donald Trump.
“In my home, the America I love — the America I’ve written about that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years — is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration,” he said.

  2. Bruce, are you doing anything (with your big fat bank account ) to help the starving children of the world???

  4. I love you Boss.
    This mans base is older middle class white folks. Meaning Maga. He risked quite a bit to say this publicly. I see you Bruce

  7. So whats its gunna be MAGA people ..
    I know youve grown up with Bruce ( as a lot of us have )
    Youve known Bruce for most of your lives .
    So now thats hes laid waste to your Super Hero – Trump , thats put you in a pickle of loyalty – Hasnt it ? ?
    I know youll dump Bruce – for Trump because he Has somehow ,Brain washed your souls ..Thats what he does and you all fall for his Salesman Pitch ..
    You all know Bruce —— Hes real and always has been .

  10. My hat goes off to Springsteen for being so brave to use his huge platform and voice to get the truth out there and to wake up those who are misinformed and/or wrapped up in the madness of Trump 2.0…
    Thanks a million, Bruce…

  26. Uncle donald doesnot give a flying fart about us of a or americans. He just wants to steal as much as possible!!! The silly clown !!!!!!!!

  27. Ironically, he made this speech in Manchester, UK. Over the last year, our Prime Minister, Kier Starmer, has been putting people in prison for up to 5 years for writing WORDS on X. They complained that the multiple child murderer, in Southport, was an immigrant and Islamic terrorist. The government said he wasn't, and people who had said that were imprisoned. At his trial on January 25, it was disclosed that police found Ricin and an al-Qaeda terrorist manual in his bedroom.

    Those who wrote that were telling the truth are still in prison. That means in the UK, under the present government, people are sent to prison for writing the TRUTH! And you think the United States has an issue!!!

  38. He conveniently forgot the genocide supported by his current and former president. Shameful.
    He's crying about the rights of Americans but not standing for the rights of people American is destroying.

  41. 100% On Point… Thank You Bruce, This Is One Of Many Reasons You’re “The Boss” (Always Have Been…Always Will Be) 💙✌🏽
