It's his birthday, and his new memoir is out any second, and now amid all the new attention, Bruce Springsteen (who some though might sit out this election) has instead slammed Trump and backed Hillary. Rolling Stone released a teaser for its upcomig cover story, in which Bruce makes his "moron" comment and more.
“The republic is under siege by a moron,” Springsteen told Stone in its teaser published Friday.
“The whole thing is tragic,” he said re: Trump’s campaign. “Without
overstating it, it’s a tragedy for our democracy. When you start talking
about elections being rigged, you’re pushing people beyond democratic
governance. And it’s a very, very dangerous thing to do. Once you let
those genies out of the bottle, they don’t go back in so easy, if they
go back in at all.”
Springsteen supports Democratic
nominee Hillary Clinton. “I like Hillary,” he said. “I think she would be a very, very good president.”
