Trump Hits At Bruce Springsteen For The Most Ironic Thing Ever & No One Can Keep Quiet

Once again, Donald Trump is showing how fragile his ego is in a meltdown on social media. Now, the president is taking aim at rock 'n' roll legend Bruce Springsteen, who has been outspoken about his disdain for Trump. "I see that Highly Overrated Bruce Springsteen goes to a Foreign Country to speak badly about the President of the United States," Trump wrote on Truth Social Friday, May 16.

During a concert in Manchester on Wednesday, Springsteen, who is on his "Land of Hope and Dreams" tour, denounced the Republican politician to an audience of over 20,000 people, calling Trump an unfit leader. "The America I've written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration," Springsteen asserted, per The Guardian. The "Born in the U.S.A." singer seemingly struck a chord with Trump, who waxed on about his own contempt for the star.

After insulting Springsteen's music and left-wing political views, Trump said that the musician was untalented. "Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden," he wrote. "Springsteen is 'dumb as a rock,' and couldn't see what was going on ... This dried out 'prune' of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country." The latter jab at Springsteen is really what prompted an uproar from people on the internet.

After Donald Trump called Bruce Springsteen a "dried out 'prune' of a rocker," social media users couldn't help but point out the irony in his diss. "Trump should probably look in a mirror before commenting on someone's appearance," one person wrote on X (formerly Twitter). "The line about skin is so much projection [it's] crazy," another wrote, adding, "A dude who has to paint his face on each morning!!! What world are we living in?"

The president, who is nearly in his 80s, has been repeatedly called out on the internet for his jarring use of self-tanner, which we've already compiled in a list of his worst fake tan fails. "I know HE does not have the nerve to talk about somebody's skin with his CHESTER CHEETAH lookin' ass," another X user quipped. Trump's real skin color has seemingly been exposed, and he appears to be much paler (and frankly, more wrinkly) than The Boss — Springsteen is probably thanking his Italian genes right about now.
