Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band Member Steven Van Zandt Says He Meant to Say ‘Exterminate’ Conservatives ‘At the Ballot Box’
Breitbart ^ | 04/11/2023 | David NG

Posted on 04/11/2023 12:40:57 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

After calling for and then deleting his demand for the left to “exterminate” conservative “cockroaches,” Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band guitarist Steven Van Zandt is still walking back his incendiary comment, claiming he meant to say “exterminate at the ballot box.”

In a recent set of angry tweets, Steven Van Zandt defended his use of “cockroaches” to describe the political opposition after someone pointed out that the same insult was used in Rwanda to foment genocide.

Van Zandt claimed his use of “cockroach” was just “symbolism” and that he really meant to say “exterminate at the ballot box.” He called Trump supporters “pathetic MAgotts” and warned them: “Don’t project your mindless violence fantasies on this peace loving hippie.”

I never liked his music anyway and never listened to it after the first time, that was more than enough.

I never understand why, so many in the entertainment industry, feel the need to virtue signal that they are liberal.

Liberals are mentally ill, they can't help themselves.

Bruce is every bit as bad, a loyal rat and constantly preaches it.

Not in the eyes of today’s ‘law’.

You’ll be lucky if you don’t get investigated for just making this little old post. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, leftist ‘celebrities’ can call for genocide and go on living in the sun (or at least in their bubbles)

Hush, Steven. You’re a one trick pony, an idiot savant.
Stay in your lane, Pal. Leave politics to the grown folks.

I reckon he thinks someone else will do the exterminating for him; sort of like a pest-control service! It’s a beech when you got to get down and do the exterminatin’ yourself!
