“Chilling”: Trump’s Fury at Bruce Springsteen Just Got Much Darker - The DSR Network

In May 2025, Donald Trump used his Truth Social account to sharply criticize Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift amid rising political tensions.
The criticism followed Springsteen's speech in the UK condemning the U.S. Administration as corrupt and incompetent, which sparked social media posts falsely claiming a joint performance with Swift.
Checks revealed that Springsteen and Swift appeared in separate past concerts rather than sharing a stage recently; the images circulated were taken from different events, and the false claims stemmed from Facebook pages known for spreading misleading content.
Springsteen stated America has been a 'beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years' but is now governed by a corrupt administration, while Trump called him a 'dried out prune of a rocker' and demanded investigations into his campaign contributions.
The American Federation of Musicians publicly supported Springsteen and Swift against Trump's attacks, highlighting issues of political expression and freedom of speech among artists.

Trump Posts Wild Meme of Bruce Springsteen as He Ramps Up Threats

The eight-second edited video shows the president in a MAGA hat hitting Springsteen with a golf ball, taking the rock star down as he gets onstage. It was posted without a caption but is yet another indication that Trump’s absurd targeting of Springsteen may not be a joke. On Monday, Trump said in a Truth Social post he …
