Bruce Springsteen and the Mighty E Street Band are not having it with Donald Trump.
Called him "corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous" and asked audience to "raise your voice against this authoritarianism and let freedom ring" in Manchester tonight.

As an aside, just for my own bucket list - what I wouldn’t give to watch them perform Murder Incorporated.
Yayyy NJ Dems.
Bruce is a poet, a gifted musician, and (even though "they" say, "never meet your heroes" I suspect) a truly decent person. Yes, to folks with broad influence, using their voices to promote decency while sharing damn good art.
