President Donald Trump on Sunday urged his MAGA supporters to boycott Bruce Springsteen’s concerts, describing them as “overpriced” and criticizing the rock legend’s far-left politics.
Trump targeted the longtime musician after Springsteen repeatedly attacked him and the administration in interviews and onstage comments. The president told supporters to stop buying tickets and refuse to fund an artist who openly opposes their values.
In his statement, Trump argued that Springsteen has become more focused on progressive politics than on entertainment. He called the ticket prices excessive and said fans should spend their money elsewhere.
The call for a boycott spread quickly among Trump supporters online. Many shared messages encouraging others to skip Springsteen’s upcoming shows and avoid streaming his music.
Springsteen has long been vocal in his opposition to Trump, using concerts and public appearances to promote left-leaning causes. The president’s response frames the dispute as another example of cultural elites attacking everyday Americans.
The exchange continues the pattern of high-profile clashes between Trump and major entertainment figures. Whether the boycott call affects ticket sales remains to be seen, but it has already intensified the political divide surrounding the veteran rock star.
