We know that Bruce Springsteen has always been forthright in his views about American politics. But last night at one of his shows at the Manchester Co-Op Arena he made it quite clear – as if we were in any doubt – about how he feels about the current incumbent of the White House and his right wing policies.
Introducing the song Land Of Hope and Dreams, Springsteen said: “In my home, the America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration. Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experiment to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring!”
