Donald Trump fires back at Bruce Springsteen with personal jabs: 'Incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome'
Donald Trump responds to Bruce Springsteen over tour speech criticism
Donald Trump has lashed out at Bruce Springsteen in response to the musician’s recent criticism of his administration during a live performance.
The exchange began when Springsteen took the stage in Minneapolis to open his Land of Hope and Dreams tour. On stage, he made a series of political remarks, accusing the current leadership of damaging America’s global reputation.
"While working Americans struggle, our president and his family enrich themselves by billions of dollars trading on the people’s office in corruption unmatched in American history. This is happening now," the musician told concertgoers.
"This White House is destroying the American idea and our reputation around the world," he added.
Springsteen, who has been openly critical of Trump for years, went on to describe the current period as “very dark times” and called on citizens to uphold values like honesty and compassion.
Within a day, Trump hit back on Truth Social with a personal and highly critical post, dismissing Springsteen’s talent, mocking his appearance, and accusing him of political bias.
"Bad, and very boring singer, Bruce Springsteen, who looks like a dried up prune who has suffered greatly from the work of a really bad plastic surgeon, has long had a horrible and incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, sometimes referred to as TDS."
Trump added, "The guy is a total loser who spews hate against a President who won a Landslide Election, including the popular vote, all Seven Swing States, and 86% of the Counties across America."
The president also urged his supporters to boycott his concerts.
