[Politics] Donald Trump, US President

Pretty much. To be fair, he’s only the 27th most successful artist of all time. Plenty of room for improvement.

Picking a fight with Bruce Springsteen is an odd thing to do, especially in the written style of an uneducated, angry, resentful and ignorant teenager.
I just don't understand how his popularity does not collapse as he locks horns with an all American legend? Bizarre.

I would hope that little by little as he gets around to insulting and picking fights with various groups and individuals, sectors of his support drop away .

Absolutely staggering to consider this is written by the CURRENT and TWO TIME president of the United States. Take yourself back ten years and this would be utterly unbelievable, not even something parody writers could get away with writing.

As a point of interest is he as outspoken when playing concerts in the US? I see the potential for a crowd riot if so given how many actually support the rogue President and his government. I imagine in Manchester more than 95% of the crowd would be in agreement.Pleased to see the Boss having a good swing at Trump and the gang:
Bruce Springsteen says Trump is running ‘rogue government’ and ‘siding with dictators’

I'm guessing he's just learned a new word, 'atrophied'.
I wonder if the next few weeks will see him using it repeatedly? Like a child.
In other news he's claimed that India has offered to drop all tariffs on US goods because he is an incredible genius deal maker. An offer that he might take up in a while it he decides he wants to.
India says, no we havent, that's not what's happened, that's not how trade deals work.

It’s all a bit ‘odd’ - Trump picks a playground fight with every celebrity, reporter and popular politician that speaks out against him.
He called Meryl Streep (winner of 3 Academy Awards, eight Golden Globes, three Primetime Emmys) as one of the ‘most overrated actors in Hollywood’ after she criticised him for mocking a disabled reporter. He’s attacked Spike Lee, Robert de Niro, Madonna, Rihanna, Beyonncé, Lady Gaga … and Taylor Swift repeatedly.
The American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada’s response to attacks on Swift and Springsteen:
“Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift are not just brilliant musicians; they are role models and inspirations to millions of people in the United States and across the world ... Whether it’s Born in the U.S.A. or the Eras Tour, their music is timeless, impactful, and has deep cultural meaning. Musicians have the right to freedom of expression, and we stand in solidarity with all our members.”

A celebrity exercises power and control by criticising me.
I must reclaim power and control by retaliating and attacking the source of their power.
Oh for the lessons of history.
Great Britain relocated thousands and thousands of Scottish Protestants to Ireland centuries ago. How many thousands have died because of that? How many lives ruined? How many families broken apart?
If they do this, it will be catastrophic for Gaza, Libya, the Middle East and the World.

Its going to massively pour fuel on an already incendiary middle east.
Arab nations and civillians will rightly be enraged.
US and Israel complain of terrorism, but you can't do things like this and expect people to accept it.
There will be consequences

this one isn't just about Trump, something like this could only happen if other leaders go along with it, instead of telling a fascist state to cease their ethnic cleansing.

Has he had a truth social tantrum about this yet and blamed Biden, Springsteen and Swift for it?
But, but - Biden left the economy in a mess - and the country 'would be gone' if Big Donald hadn't gotten back into power......
