Bruce Springsteen was slammed by critics and lauded by the leftist TDS crowd as he began his “Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour” on Tuesday.
Springsteen began the tour in Minneapolis to vent his anger at President Trump and the current administration and wasted no time promoting himself as a savior of “democracy.”

After covering the 70s hit song “War” by Edwin Singer and his own classic “Born in the USA,” the bitter singer really let loose on the current administration.
“We are living through some very dark times. Our American values that have sustained us for 250 years are being challenged as never before. We’ve got our young men and women’s lives at risk in an unconstitutional and illegal war. This is happening now,” he warned, according to Variety.
“There are immigrants being held in detention centers around the country and being deported without due process of law to alien countries and foreign gulags. This is happening now.”
He then focused his wildly ignorant ire on AG Pam Bondi and presumably Elon Musk.
“Our Justice Department has completely abdicated its independence, and our attorney general, Pam Bondi, takes her marching orders straight from a corrupt White House. She prosecutes our president’s perceived enemies, covers up for his misdeeds, and protects his powerful friends. This is happening now.”
“The richest men in America have abandoned the world’s poorest children through death and disease, through their dismantling of USAID. This is happening now.”
“We are abandoning NATO and the world order that’s kept us safe and at global peace for 80 years. This is happening now.”
Springsteen reportedly droned on and on in what must have seemed like eternity to any reasonable person in the audience, and declared that Trump “can’t handle the truth.”
“Our museums are being told to whitewash American history of any unpleasant or inconvenient facts, like the full history of the brutality of slavery. You want to talk about snowflakes? We have a president who can’t handle the truth. This is happening now.”
And while his leftist fans lapped up Springsteen’s public struggle session, plenty of X users sounded off on the “No Kings” promoter.

“Billionaire who charges $800 for concert tickets claims to represent working class Americans,” another user wrote.”Another concert, another political rant. People came for the music, not a lecture.”
