Bruce Springsteen on Trump’s America: “I haven’t lived through a time like this in my entire life”

Bruce Springsteen has hit out at Donald Trump again describing the US President’s administration as an “American tragedy”.

Last week, he criticised Trump’s “disgusting” immigration policies following the ICE immigration raids that began in Los Angeles earlier this month.

It came after he called Trump’s administration “corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous” at a recent show in Manchester – a move which led to the President describing him as a “dried out ‘prune’” who “ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country.”

Now, in a new interview with The Sunday Times, The Boss has hit out at Trump’s immigration policies again.

“We’re living through a terrible moment in history, where Congress has neutered itself and the boundaries that once curtailed this type of leadership have disintegrated,” he said.

Springsteen added: “The pure incompetence of [the administration] may carry the seeds of its own destruction. But I don’t know what’s going to happen. I haven’t lived through a time like this in my entire life and I’m 75 years-old.”

On the subject of the immigration raids, he went on to say “it’s been disgusting and dehumanising for so many folks who live here in the country.”

Since his comments in Manchester, The Boss has been backed by Pearl Jam frontman Eddie Vedder, Neil Young and Bono for his on-stage comments.

Earlier this week, the first trailer for his highly anticipated biopic Deliver Me From Nowhere was shared, giving fans a first look at The Bear star Jeremy Allen White as the legendary musician. The film is scheduled for worldwide release on October 24.

Springsteen also recently said that the film contained moments from his life that were so “painful” he couldn’t be on set.

The singer-songwriter is set to release seven never-heard-before records next Friday (June 27) as part of a new compilation, titled ‘Tracks II: The Lost Albums’. It’ll contain 83 songs that were written across his expansive career.

He also recently confirmed the existence of an electric version of his 1982 album ‘Nebraska’.
