Bruce Springsteen is not afraid of President Trump’s threatening social media tirade “shut up” as the rocker once again delivered a three-minute speech at the second concert in Manchester, England, criticizing “an inappropriate president and a rogue government.”
"What is happening right now is changing the nature of democracy in our country, and they are too important to ignore," Springsteen said Saturday.
"In America, in my home, they persecut people's right to speak freely and to express dissent. This is happening," Springsteen said. "In America, the richest people are satisfied with giving up the condition and death of the poorest children in the world. This is happening now. In my country, they enjoy sadism in the pain they exert on faithful American workers. They are retreating from historic civil rights legislation, which has led to a more just society that has led to a more just society. They have abandoned our great allies, with those who are unwilling to surrender to their freedom, and they are now unwilling to surrender. Their demands.
After Springsteen’s first speech in Manchester earlier this week in Manchester, Trump turned to Truth Social, calling the rock singer “highly overrated” and “not a talented guy, just an impatient, nasty asshole” and seems to threaten Springsteen’s ability to re-enter the U.S. in the conclusion of his European tour.
Springsteen once again said: "Most of our elected representatives have completely failed to protect the American people from the abuse of an inappropriate president and a rogue government. They don't care or think about what it means to be America."
“For about 50 years, the United States I sing with you is real, regardless of its many shortcomings, it is a great country with a great man and we will survive in this moment. Well, I have hope because I believe in the truth about the great American writer James Baldwin. “In this world, there are not so many humans, but there are enough people.” ”
Like previous Manchester Shows, Springsteen ended the Dreams Tour Concers with a rendition of Bob Dylan's Of Freedom, who last played in 1988. Springsteen and E Street Band returned to Manchester to live broadcast, with the third show on May 20.
