President Donald Trump seems very angry with US-born Singer Bruce Springsteen. Springsteen started his 2025 Europe tour recently with a concert in Manchester, England. At the concert, he reportedly spoke about Donald Trump’s government, calling it “corrupt, not good at its job, and doing things that go against the country.” As per the reports, Springsteen said that the America he loves is being run by people who don’t know what they’re doing. He reportedly asked people to “rise against authoritarianism and let freedom ring” “the power of art, music, and rock ‘n’ roll is important during dangerous times.
An angry Donald Trump blasted the singer in a post on Truth Social. Trump called Springsteen “highly overrated,” “not a talented guy,” and a “pushy, obnoxious JERK.” Trump went on to add, “This dried out ‘prune’ of a rocker ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country.” Trump brought up Joe Biden, calling him “Sleepy Joe” and said Springsteen is “dumb as a rock.” He further wrote, “We’ll all see how it goes for him,” suggesting there might be consequences when Springsteen returns to the U.S.
Trump also criticised Taylor Swift, a vocal Trump critic. Trump's statement made the American Federation of Musicians release a statement defending Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift. According to the reports, The American Federation of Musicians said, “Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift are not just brilliant musicians, they are role models and inspirations to millions. He added. “musicians have the right to freedom of expression.”

Incidentally, Springsteen has criticised Trump multiple times, once calling him a “moron” who’s taken the country under siege. He criticised Trump's border policy during his first term as President as well. In June 2018, during a one-man Broadway show, he slammed Donald Trump’s border-control policy. According to a report in The New Yorker then, Springsteen stood “on a bare stage and under a simple spotlight” to reflect on the renewed significance of the March for Our Lives protest after witnessing the traumatic scenes from detention centers at the border in recent days.
“It was a good day, and a necessary day, because we are seeing things right now on our American borders that are so shockingly and disgracefully inhumane and un-American that it is simply enraging,” he said. “And we have heard people in high positions in the American government blaspheme in the name of God and country that it is a moral thing to assault the children amongst us. May God save our souls.”
