Democratic Party rock singer Bruce Springsteen spoke out against President Donald Trump at a concert in Perth, Australia on Sunday, declaring, “We are the new American resistance.”
The show was the opening night of Springsteen and his E Street Band’s ‘Summer 2017’ tour of Australia and New Zealand.

The rally in Sydney, Australia was overshadowed by the skywriting of Trump’s name overhead.

“The E Street Band is glad to be here in Western Australia. But we’re a long way from home, and our hearts and spirits are with the hundreds of thousands of women and men that marched yesterday in every city in America and in Melbourne who rallied against hate and division and in support of tolerance, inclusion, reproductive rights, civil rights, racial justice, LGBTQ rights, the environment, wage equality, gender equality, healthcare, and immigrant rights. We stand with you. We are the new American resistance.”
– Bruce Springsteen – January 22, 2017 Perth, Australia”
Backstreets reported last week that Springsteen played a two hour private acoustic concert at the White House for President and Mrs. Obama and about 200-250 staffers on January 12.
The Dixie Chicks garnered notoriety for trashing President Bush at a London concert in 2003. While Springsteen is in no danger of facing a similar career nosediving backlash from his fans as the Chicks had a conservative country music fan base, he will still likely face criticism for his overseas attack on President Trump from some quarters.
He talks about wage equality but he kept the other e-street members of the band away from the money so he’s a fraud.
Yeah, the struggle to squeeze into those pants!
We are the new American resistance, uh excuse me I have to get home to my mansion on the hill I have a dinner party at 8
Is that @TheRealTrigglypuff?
BRILLIANT!
Never heard it put just that way...the imagery fits!
Yeah, he is a one man 80s tribute band now. The real rebels are in power now, old has been. You’re spouting fed lines from those who would do you in. Which means
YOU
ARE
STUPID.
Baby, you were born to suck.
I’m so proud of mommy with a vagina on her face!
/puke
what a jerkoff...and his music stinks, too.
Take a look at this house, this is a man fighting for his people
In 2016, Bruce is more concerned about his Hollywood pals while his blue collar fans voted for Donald Trump in droves. From Allentown PA to Wisconsin and all in between, Donald Trump won in a landslide.
Thank you...Well said...Beat me to it...
Alternative would be CJ - complete jerkoff
Is that all ? ?
How long before many of these ‘entertainers’ are broke because no one is buying what they put out???
Here’s hoping Bruce breaks a vocal cord and no longer can spew his nonsense.
