White House Communications Director Steven Cheung had a tantrum after rock legend Bruce Springsteen hit out at the Trump administration.
Springsteen this week announced his “Land of Hope and Dreams Tour," a 20-date run with the E Street Band that starts at a significant place on March 31 — Minneapolis, The Daily Beast reported. He also pointed to ICE's immigration policies and harsh attacks on citizens, which have inspired his most recent song "Streets of Minneapolis."
“We are living through dark, disturbing, and dangerous times,” Springsteen said.
Trump's top aide was apparently upset by Springsteen's comments, lashing out at the music star with bizarre references to his own songs.
“When this loser Springsteen comes back home to his own City of Ruins in his head, he’ll realize his Glory Days are behind him and his fans have left him Out in the Street, putting him in a Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out because he has a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his brain,” Cheung told Politico's Playbook.
Springsteen made it clear that he has taken a stance against Trump.
“We will be rocking your town in celebration and in defense of America—American democracy, American freedom, our American Constitution, and our sacred American dream—all of which are under attack by our wannabe king and his rogue government in Washington, D.C.," he said.
