From Bruce Springsteen’s Tour in Manchester, England, on May 14, 2025, he said:
“In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, and has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous administration,” Springsteen told the crowd after walking onstage. “Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us, raise your voices against the authoritarianism, and let freedom ring.” “In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction in abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death,” he said. “That’s happening now. In my country, they’re taking sadistic pleasure in the pain they inflict on loyal American workers. They’re rolling back historic civil rights legislation that led to a more just society. They’re abandoning our great allies and siding with dictators against those who are struggling for their freedom. That’s happening now. They are defunding American universities that won’t bow down to their ideological demands. And they are removing residents off American streets without due process of law and deploying them to foreign detention centers and prisons. That’s happening now.”
Neil Young wrote:
“THANKS BRUCE” in the headline.
To the insane convicted felon and rapist loser, Neil wrote: “Bruce and thousands of musicians think you are ruining America. You worry about that instead of the dyin’ kids in Gaza.”
Neil Young wrote this response to Springsteen:
“As a Canadian-American dual citizen, I stand with the great majority, thanking you for speaking so eloquently and truthfully on behalf of the American people,” Young said. “We are with you my old friend. Your great songs of America ring true as you sing them to Europe and the world!”
Neil also wrote to the convicted felon and rapist:
“Bruce and thousands of musicians think you are ruining America. You worry about that instead of the dyin’ kids in Gaza,” Young wrote on his website late Monday. “That’s your problem. I am not scared of you. Neither are the rest of us. You shut down FEMA when we needed it most. That’s your problem Trump. STOP THINKING ABOUT WHAT ROCKERS ARE SAYING. Think about saving America from the mess you made….Remember what the White House is? 86/47??? That’s what you think about,” Young further wrote, seeming to reference the White House response to a James Comey Instagram post last week. You are forgetting your real job. You work for us. Wake up Republicans! This guy is out of control. We need a real president!”
Agreed. This narcissistic crass child, this immature revengeful and vengeful international bully wants the world to be terrified of him, afraid of him. But mature people who have experienced childish bullies in their past and learned how to deal with these schoolyard bullies are not afraid of him. We find him disgusting and a disgrace. There is nothing remotely presidential about him. And the degenerate US Republican Party allowed this narcissistic insane lunatic, this nut, this kook — they are accurate descriptions of him — to take over their party rather than their doing the more difficult work of choosing a credible, sane and intelligent candidate, and they now behave like he’s their cult leader, their messiah figure, and it is like the worst of cults. By most Republicans, he’s seen as can do no wrong and is above reproach. That’s the definition of a cult leader.
As for Bruce, he was just getting warmed up. And in his description of this vengeful and revengeful regime, he left out the word lawless. These people think they are in a monarchy, and the far-right US Supreme Court is responsible for this by granting the convicted felon and rapist immunity. As I was telling a friend of mine, the one monarchy in the world that comes to mind for me — the British monarchy — they don’t act at all like this. All the people I’ve spoken with about the convicted felon’s complete immunity cannot understand that decision. I’ve heard people say, “the Supreme Court created a monster.” No one else in any other job has ongoing “benefits” or complete immunity from any previous job. When the job ends, so do everything that came with that job. That’s the way the real world works and its workforce. It’s as if the US Supreme Court intended to create a US monarchy with the convicted felon and rapist as the above-the-law king.
As for above the law or lawless, take this headline for example: Marco Rubio Says No Judge Has Authority Over Him in Alarming Testimony. Tr*mp’s secretary of state made a shocking confession in a testy exchange with Democratic Senator Chris Van Hollen. [Source].
There’s also nothing presidential about the convicted felon. For example, at the Kennedy Center Board Dinner, he had to go on another rambling rant:
“Then he went into his pet subject how the 2020 election was stolen from him….“And then they rigged the election, and then I said, ‘You know what I’ll do? I’ll run again and I’ll shove it up their ass,’” Trump told the audience. Headline: Tr*mp Spirals at Kennedy Center Dinner: “I’ll Shove It Up Their Ass”. Is that what one would expect a president of the United States of America to say? He doesn’t possess “common sense.”
The Democrats have become mostly useless — more so than usual — with some admitting that they are “terrified” of the international bully. Some Republicans have said the same. Even if they are, why would they admit that publicly? Anyone who is afraid of this piece of semi-closeted nazi trash is in the wrong job and they have no place in the US Congress since they never matured to the level of knowing how to deal with some bully who puts on this big and tough fist-pumping act when in reality he couldn’t harm a gnat. He’s a petty, insane, mentally dysfunctional child in an excessively unhealthy overweight adult body.
It’s these outstanding musicians who aren’t afraid of the international bully and ignoramus. I have absolutely no respect for him at all and never have. I see him for what he is: A low-life, basura, and a cult leader for a lot of pathetic, stupid and hateful people. As I wrote after the 2024 election, Hate won the 2024 election since this man-child spewed nonstop hate at all of his cult rallies. Assuming the election results were legit — and I’m not convinced they were — since wet-doily Harris was urged by several groups of election experts to demand a hand recount in the swing states because the experts saw problems there. What did she do? Went on holiday to Hawaii. That’s how much she cared about it.
