This week, Bruce Springsteen claimed that he was standing amount “embarrassed Americans”.
This coming from the man who sings “Born in the USA,” but the signs were there all along. Springsteen’s hit may sound like a patriotic jam, but its intention is often misheard or misunderstood. With lyrics like “So they put a rifle in my hand / Sent me off to a foreign land / To go and kill the yellow man,” the song was a political statement from the very beginning.
The anti-war/anti-America message may have been subtle then, but now Springsteen is making his displeasure with the United States known across the world. His most overt criticism of his home country came this week during a concert in Melbourne, Australia.

YOU WERE LEAVING WHEN ALL READY ?
I love Bruce’s music and his recent book about his life was an awesome read. However, I love Trump as president and I want to hear Bruce’s political views about as much as I would want to hear Trump sing a song.
Scumbag & filled w hate fr our country to do such a thing. Speak for yourself$#%&!@* We who voted Trump are not embarrassed we are embarrassed by you far left degenerates, elitist & liberals who know nothing about middle America cause your rich & out of touch. Do not speak for all of Americans.
F**k off pos
What a ignorant man
This narcissistic individual is the rich elite, yet he claimed his property in New Jersey as farmland so he does not have to pay his fair share of taxes
But he wants the struggling working class, who can barely survive or pay their own necessities
To pay for Medicaid, illegals, failing Obamacare, taxes for the corrupt politicians and his outrages concert ticket prices
Stop supporting this hypocritical man
I agree with you totally

You re a ‘has-been’ Bruce.
Yeah I agree.
Just another idiot entertainer.
