Springsteen Doubles Down on Political Criticism with a Digital EP that Includes Anti-Trump Comments

  • Bruce Springsteen unexpectedly released a six-track digital EP on Wednesday called "Land of Hope and Dreams," featuring live performances recorded in Manchester, England, on May 14.
  • Springsteen’s long-standing opposition to Donald Trump and recent political tensions led him to include critical remarks about the Trump administration in two tracks.
  • The EP includes two spoken segments in which Springsteen condemns the current administration as corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous, and calls on listeners who value democracy and freedom to stand up and raise their voices in opposition to oppression.
  • In response to Springsteen's remarks, Trump called him an "obnoxious JERK," shared a humorous golf clip seemingly striking Springsteen, and claimed, without proof, that Springsteen and other celebrities should be thoroughly investigated for allegedly receiving payments to support his political rival.
  • This exchange intensified the ongoing culture war, highlighting deep political divisions and drawing responses from other public figures on both sides of the debate.
