Springsteen Again Unloads On “Unfit President” After Trump Warned Him He Better “Keep His Mouth Shut”

“Things are happening right now that are altering the very nature of our country’s democracy, and they’re too important to ignore. In America, my home, they’re persecuting people for their right to free speech and voicing their dissent. That’s happening now.

“In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction in abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death. 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.

“They have utterly failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. That’s happening now.” – Bruce Springsteen, last night in Manchester, after Trump warned him that he’d better “keep his mouth shut.”
