Bruce Springsteen Keeps Slamming Trump Because 'A Lot of People Bought Into His Lies': 'If Congress Had Guts, He'd Be

Consigned to the Trash Heap of History’

Bruce Springsteen talks about a lot of things in his new Time magazine cover story: fame, family, therapy, touring with the E Street Band and the 50 th anniversary of his epochal “Born to Run” album — in fact, the issue appears almost exactly 50 years after his first Time cover (and simultaneous Newsweek one), which heralded him as rock’s bright new hope.

But the most attention-grabbing quotes are his fairly fearless statements about President Donald Trump, whom he initially shied away from criticizing directly (in a 2017 Variety interview) but increasingly has slammed, beginning during his 2018 Broadway residency.

Since Trump’s re-election last year, he and the Boss have traded barbs, with Springsteen calling his administration “corrupt, incompetent and treasonous” and Trump saying the musician is “dumb as a rock,” posting a video mocking him, and groundlessly calling for a investigation into his and other artists’ support of Trump’s 2024 election opponent Kamala Harris.

Springsteen fires back in the new interview, with possibly his strongest statements yet.
