\t\t\t\t\tMusicians Donald Trump Has Insulted, From Taylor Swift to Snoop\u00a0Dogg\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tThis time, an altered video Trump shared via his Truth Social<\/a> platform on Wednesday (May 21) shows the commander in chief in a red Make America Great Again cap as he takes a big swing and hits a ball on the golf course as onlookers cheer him on. The video then cuts to a scene of The Boss walking on stage during a concert, as a white dot representing the golf ball suddenly sails into the shot, hits the musician in the back and knocks him down as audio of onlookers clapping and saying \u201cnice shot\u201d plays. Trump did not caption the video, but also shared it on X.<\/p>\n

\n\tBillboard<\/em> has reached out to Springsteen\u2019s reps for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis latest dig at the 20-time Grammy winner comes after Springsteen spoke out<\/a> against the twice-impeached president on his ongoing tour. \u201c[America] is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration,\u201d the rocker, who endorsed Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in the 2024 election, said during his first Land of Hopes and Dreams Tour in Manchester, England, on May 14. \u201cTonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us, raise your voices against the authoritarianism, and let freedom ring.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tTrump, who in May 2024 was convicted of 34 felony charges<\/a> in his hush money trial, responded in a lengthy Truth Social post on May 16 calling the artist<\/a> \u201cdumb as a rock\u201d and going on to insult his talent. \u201cThis dried out \u2018prune\u2019 of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country, that\u2019s just \u2018standard fare,\u2019\u201d Trump wrote the same day he also insulted Taylor Swift, who also endorsed his opponent in the election. \u201cThen we\u2019ll all see how it goes for him!\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSpringsteen continued his criticism<\/a> of the president during his May 17 show in Manchester. \u201cIn my home, they\u2019re persecuting people for their right to free speech and voicing their dissent. That\u2019s happening now,\u201d the musician told concertgoers. \u201cThe majority of our elected representatives have utterly failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. They have no concern or idea of what it means to be deeply American.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThose same comments from his two concerts are included in a new six-track EP also titled Land of Hopes & Dreams<\/em>, which arrived on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

\n\tSince the back-and-forth, the president has called for investigations into Springsteen as well as other stars for allegedly joining in on an what he calls an \u201cillegal election scam\u201d he claims was orchestrated by Harris\u2019 campaign. In May 19 Truth Social posts, Trump accused<\/a> The Boss, Beyonc\u00e9, U2\u2019s Bono as well as Oprah Winfrey of illegally accepting undisclosed payments to appear at the former VP\u2019s rallies and endorse her. FactCheck.org previously disproved those allegations<\/a> when they first surfaced in 2024.<\/p>\n

\n\tAfter Trump initially insulted Springsteen and Swift on May 16, the American Federation of Musicians International stepped up to defend the artists<\/a>. \u201cThe American Federation of Musicians of the United States and Canada will not remain silent as two of our members \u2014 Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift \u2014 are singled out and personally attacked by the President of the United States,\u201d Tino Gagliardi, the organization\u2019s president, said in part in a statement that day. \u201cMusicians have the right to freedom of expression, and we stand in solidarity with all our members.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
