Bruce Springsteen used a concert stage in Minneapolis to deliver a blunt warning about the state of America, leading critics to label the musician a "traitor."
Springsteen unleashed four pointed political speeches during the opening night of his "Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour" on Tuesday.
"We are living through some very dark times," he told the crowd mid-show, according to Variety. "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.

Stay on subject here, your TDS is clouding your thinking.
Cloris Leachman.

Go look.

In a music magazine article from 1980, he bragged about going to the draft board pretending to be queer.
You will NEVER find that article anywhere ever again.
I’ve searched for decades.
It got disappeared.
But I bloody well stood in that used record store in Frederick MD and read it.
‘ Stay on subject here, your TDS is clouding your thinking.’
The post I replied to referred to draft dodging and that wrapping yourself in the flag.
I am on topic.
Ever had a bone spur or a shin splint?
It’s very particular agony.
Bone spurs had nothing to do with “The Boss”, Springsteen.
‘ Ever had a bone spur or a shin splint?

Yeah. Trump always looks like he’s in agony while saying he is the most in shape perfect specimen on earth.
Gtfoh
‘ Bone spurs had nothing to do with “The Boss”, Springsteen.’
You’re right.
Make the connection Einstein.
I’m sorry you’re having a bad day Fuzz.
Truly.
No, but acting effete and all prancy at the draft hearing did.
And I read that when I was a huge fan.
Was not happy about that all.
I’m sorry you need to use passive aggressiveness to avoid an uncomfortable reality.
Truly
Salamander, you are way too kind.
Fuzz is a half-assed AI trolling bot with a bad attitude and an asshole personality programmed into it. He, or rather it, is a royal PITA to every thread on FR that it decides to attack.
I'm not sorry for anything about it. It has no feelings, and all it ever has are bad days. It's a piece of shiite AI malware some anti-American leftist wrote and inflicted on FR.
Prove me wrong, and I'll apologize to it. Like maybe it could provide its donation history. I think I'm pretty safe. :-)
Bruce cooked his brain with drugs.
I have, but you apparently haven’t.
No, you are an ai bot controlled by the red Chinese in an effort to make us question trump and his infinite wisdom
Prove me wrong.
Good lord. Worms gotten in your brain?
‘ I have, but you apparently haven’t.’
Perhaps you have, but you haven’t acknowledged it.
The comment I responded to called Springsteen a draft dodger who wraps himself in the flag.
On a forum where the draft dodging Trump who hugs the flag repeatedly is revered can’t be questioned and if he is that person is attacked and banned.
Use your brain if there is anything left of it.
Bruce isnt a traitor, it’s who he’s been all along, a puppet just singing or saying what gets him paid
Bruce is no fool. His net worth is $1.2B (with a “B”). he’s running this scam because he’s scared they will come after him. I can see him pleading, ‘Hey, I’m one of you.’ as they loot and pillage for his ‘Fair Share’.
Now who is the one with the diminished brain capacity?
So, did Trump dodge the draft or no?
