Rock legend Bruce Springsteen has described Donald Trump as an embarrassment to the United States, saying the Republican presidential candidate is a demagogue with simple solutions.
Springsteen, who has dramatized the plight of working-class Americans in his music, said he understands how Trump could seem “compelling” to people who are economically insecure. “The absurdity is beyond cartoon-like. But he's gotten close enough (to the White House) so it can make you nervous,” he told Skavlan, a talk show in Norway and Sweden, during an interview released Friday. […]

Yeah.
King of the idiocracy jerseyland.
Good description.
Springsteen is one of these frauds who pretends he represents the common man, but who, in reality, is all about glorifying himself. The common man loves and has pride in this country. The common man despises self serving elitists like Springsteen who embrace policies that harm the common man while pretending he`s doing him a favor.

Exactly!
I’ll give you a call when anyone cares what you think Bruce. That’ll be around the time hell freezes over.
Bruce, Norway doesn’t vote, dumbass.
I’d rather listen to Bobby Pickett for ten years than Springsteen for five seconds, frankly.
Springsteen is yet to discover music, never mind musicianship.
hey, brucey, you can help stop the wealth distribution by giving me a few million.....that won’t hurt will it?
Oh yeah sure thing ....mr working man who made his millions by singing on stage drunk and doped up.
A song and dance man wants to be relevant!
Springsteen is an idiot.
After ‘The River’, he jumped the shark.
Springsteen, aka The Boss? PFFFT!!!! I never did like his music. Sounds like he’s been trying to make a bowel movement for the last 40 years.
Hardly the same. They bashed a sitting president in another country. He bashed a private citizen. Do it in February and I agree.
The forecast for the next few years for idiot dims like bruce is a heavy embarrassment front moving in for the duration.
