US President Donald Trump on Wednesday took another new click at former rock legend Bruce Springsteen, taking their common conflict to a fresh levels. The MAGA chairman shared a faked video on social media showing himself hitting Springsteen with a golf game. The video was posted on both Trump’s Truth Social, begins with images of Trump swinging a golfing club and hitting a ball. It then cuts to a picture of Springsteen tumbling and rolling onto the period during one of his concerts. In the written type, a golf game is added to the image, making it look as if Trump’s chance caused Springsteen’s collapse. The movie follows a series of terrible exchanges between the two, which began after Springsteen’s new critical remarks about the Trump presidency during the opening show of his German tour. ” The America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and independence for 250 years, is now in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and traitorous supervision”, Springsteen said. He went on to accuse Trump’s state of “abandoning the world’s poorest babies to sickness and death… taking sadistic delight in the problems that they impose on faithful American employees”, and rolling up civil rights in the United States. Springsteen plans to include these comments about Trump on an EP he will release based on the recent concert, according to Variety. The Trump administration initially responded with a statement:” the 77 million Americans that elected President Trump disagree with elitist and out-of-touch celebrities like Bruce Springsteen“.Trump later took to Truth Social himself to reply, calling Springsteen “overrated” and a “jerk”. ” Never liked him, never liked his music, or his Radical Left Politics and, importantly, he’s not a talented guy — Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent FOOL, and our WORST EVER President, who came close to destroying our Country”, Trump wrote. Springsteen is not the only musician to face Trump’s criticism. The president also targeted pop star Taylor Swift, who recently completed a record-breaking two-year tour. Trump posted that she is no longer “hot” since he declared on social media that he “HATE]s ] TAYLOR SWIFT” following her endorsement of Kamala Harris. Several other musicians, including Neil Young and Pearl Jam’s Eddie Vedder, have publicly supported Springsteen and Swift. ” Bruce and thousands of musicians think you are ruining America. You worry about that instead of the dyin ‘ kids in Gaza”, Neil Young wrote on his website. ” That’s your problem. I am not scared of you “.At a concert in Pittsburgh on Sunday, Vedder addressed Trump’s attacks on Springsteen. ” All that we heard were personal attacks and threats that nobody else should try to use their microphones or voice in public or they’ll be shut down”, Vedder told the audience. Trump also accused Kamala Harris of “illegally paying millions” to Beyoncé for an endorsement under the “veil of entertainment” this week. He demanded a fresh investigation into these payments.
