'I wonder if it had anything to do with his politics': Alec Baldwin suggests park ranger arrested Bruce Springsteen for drunk driving because he is a liberal

Alec Baldwin thinks Bruce Springsteen’s drunk driving arrest may have been motivated by the New Jersey rocker’s liberal politics.

‘I wonder if Springsteen’s arrest [sic] had anything to do with his politics,’ the 30 Rock actor speculated on his Twitter feed on Thursday.

Baldwin tweeted days after it was revealed that the rock icon was arrested last fall by a federal park ranger on suspicion of drunken driving in New Jersey.

Over the years, Springsteen, like Baldwin, has not been shy about expressing his left-leaning political views.

Springsteen had performed on January 20 as part of President Joe Biden´s inauguration, singing Land of Hope and Dreams in front of the Lincoln Memorial.

Springsteen has also been a frequent critic of Biden’s predecessor, Donald Trump, calling him ‘a con man from Queens’ who has ‘hypnotized’ and ‘brainwashed’ his supporters with ‘jingoism’ and ‘paranoia.’

The Boss was also an avid supporter of Barack Obama and his presidency.

Springsteen has also made his views known on police brutality. In 2003, he released a song called American Skin (41 Shots), which was inspired by the fatal shooting by New York police of an unarmed black man, Amadou Diallo, in 1999.

Baldwin, who is also a prominent supporter of the Democratic Party, has had his own run-ins with the law.

He’s a hard socialist not a liberal. Too dumb to realize he’s a wealthy elite and the party he supports hates blue collar Jersey types he pretends to care about.

Well, see how it feels? Maybe you should show as much concern when it’s typically a conservative who gets nabbed due to politics. You were awfully quiet during the conservative ban on twitter and other social media.

Seems like all his songs have same beat. I only like Pink Cadillac and I prefer to hear Natalie Cole sing it.

Tired of hearing him called “The Boss”. “The Punk” is more appropriate.

These liberals...always deflecting. Smoke screens and shifting blame.

They act like lil punk teenagers caught red handed with a doobie, “uh uh..I found it on the ground. About to give it to the principal”. lol

Actually the test show .02 which is below the limit but we don’t know how long between arrest and the test because he refused to take the test at first.

Alec Baldwin is a Brain Dead Punk. I’ve changed the channel for years now when I see him in a movie or on TV. I’ll not support these types, period.

If he didn’t, Bruce should’ve paid royalties to Henry Mancini for basically lifting the riff from the Mancini song, Peter Gunn, when he came up with Pink Cadillac?

Bruce Springsteen's DWI police report claims he was 'visibly swaying' and took 45 steps during the 'walk and turn' instead of the instructed 18

Yep, politics.

Does that mean if the ‘boss’ runs over a child in the road, it’s OK?

Drunk is drunk, man. How stupid can you get?

Arrested because he’s a liberal? Well, he was arrested for being stupid, does that count?

that’s because Baldwin would have arrested someone based on their political views or give others a pass based on their political views. The left views everything thru a political and/or racial lens.

Absolutely!

There’s a lot of ripping off in the music industry, fer sure. I play guitar. When I learn a new song, I often think I’ve heard that part before (e.g. True Love Ways - Buddy Holly and Weekend in New England - Barry Manilow)

in another life, I was an operating system and application programmer. I once read in a C programming guide that plagiarism was the greatest form of flattery.

In other words, liberals are above the law.

Someone pointed out that the area Brucie was busted in is known for being a gay hook-up spot. Stopped by a park ranger? Hmmmm...
