"The republic is under siege by a moron," Springsteen says in excerpts from upcoming Rolling Stone feature. "It's a tragedy for our democracy"
Bruce Springsteen spent the summer playing stadiums with the E Street Band and preparing to release his autobiography, Born To Run, while largely staying clear of this year's presidential campaigns. In an excerpt from an extensive interview that will appear in the next issue of Rolling Stone, Springsteen shares his thoughts on Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, while addressing his own absence from the trail.

Bruce Springsteen Talks Throat Surgery, Depression, New Music Musician opens up about his troubled relationship with his father, family's history of mental illness ahead of new autobiography What do you make of the Trump phenomenon? Well, you know, the republic is under siege by a moron, basically. The whole thing is tragic. Without overstating it, it's a tragedy for our democracy. When you start talking about elections being rigged, you're pushing people beyond democratic governance. And it's a very, very dangerous thing to do. Once you let those genies out of the bottle, they don't go back in so easy, if they go back in at all. The ideas he's moving to the mainstream are all very dangerous ideas – white nationalism and the alt-right movement. The outrageous things that he's done – not immediately disavowing David Duke? These are things that are obviously beyond the pale for any previous political candidate. It would sink your candidacy immediately.

Amen! Over rated on every level. He looks like a bull dog and sings like a frog.
Another tick to be removed -

She was born to run. From the law.
It must be the Prozac talking.
Bruce,
You never could sing.
Your band covered for your lack of a voice.
No one cares what you think.
Have a nice day.
“Glory days...they’ll pass you by, glory days....”
I am so glad I got rid of all his cd’s for $16, 20 years ago. POS.
Sings about the blue collars and then screws his roadies out of pay.
FU!
Like anyone would ever take seriously a Serial Adulterer that wants to use the bathroom and showers with LITTLE GIRLS!!!
I like some of his music but to me he always sounds like he needs to start a heavy regime of bowel detox and large doses of Metamucil.
Springsteen has long been a political idiot .
I never listen to his music . If it comes on the radio I even change the channel
I’m sure Trump will be up all night fretting over this.
So Springsteen uses the David Duke canard as reasoning? He doesn’t have two brain cells to rub together...he could have Alzheimer’s and you’d never see a difference.

I spose we outta cut him a break since it’s his birthday and all. A shame such a no-talent jerk has such a great band.
His opinion is not the makings of headlines.
Bruce, no one cares.
You mean, ‘shut up and don’t sing. We’re sick of your self righteous crap songs. Take your $350 million dollars and retire. Oh Yea, Bruce, we really pay attention to what you have to say. Spar us.
And Rolling Stone, you couldn’t just stick to music rock and roll,, your liberal retard founders had to express their twisted mental sick politic views. Let’s see, oh yea that why I haven’t bought your rag for over 30 some years.
We don't have a democracy you idiot. We have a constitutional republic.
Hey! Don't go comparing Sprigstein to a great singer like Clarence Henry! :)
Is than mansion in New Jersey?
