President Trump Posts Video Knocking Bruce Springsteen Down With a Golf Ball as the Boss Continues to Wage War on Trump Overseas

May 21, 2025

The political battle between Democrat rocker Bruce Springsteen and President Donald Trump carried on into a second week, with the Boss ranting against Trump throughout his third straight show in Manchester, England, Tuesday night and releasing his anti-Trump speeches online, while Trump posted a trolling video of him knocking Springsteen over with a golf ball Wednesday morning.

Trump’s post of the Springsteen video is a play on a classic meme of him hitting a tee shot and the ball knocking Hillary Clinton, and later Joe Biden, down. This one uses a real video of Springsteen tripping and falling on stage during a concert in Amsterdam in 2023. The video was created by “resistthedonkey.”

Previously, Trump hit back at Springsteen for trashing him in his concert speeches in a post on Truth Social and a second post calling for an investigation into whether Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris violated campaign finance rules by paying for endorsements by Springsteen and other celebrities last year.

Overnight, Springsteen released a four-song EP on streaming services worldwide containing his anti-Trump speeches from his opening night concert with the E Street Band last week at the Co-Op Live arena in Manchester.

Introduction to Land of Hope and Dreams

Good Evening!

It’s great to be in Manchester and back in the U.K. Welcome to the Land of Hope & Dreams Tour! The mighty E Street Band is here tonight to call upon the righteous power of art, of music, of rock ‘n’ roll in dangerous times.

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!

It appears Springsteen, who has performed for every Democratic presidential nominee since John Kerry in 2004 including the the Harris campaign last fall, is going to spend the next two months on his European tour campaigning overseas against President Trump, working to undermine the Make America Great Again agenda that 77 million Americans voted for last November when they elected Trump president and gave Republicans control of the House and Senate.

Jennifer Palmieri, a senior Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton operative, posted last Saturday that she was in attendance for Springsteen’s second show in Manchester, lending the appearance that Springsteen is coordinating with his good friend Obama and the Democratic Party to sabotage President Trump’s efforts to bring peace to Europe and the Middle East, rebalance trade agreements, secure America’s borders, reform government and bring good paying jobs to the blue collar workers Springsteen claims to sing for.

Trump’s previous Truth Social posts on Springsteen:

I see that Highly Overrated Bruce Springsteen goes to a Foreign Country to speak badly about the President of the United States. Never liked him, never liked his music, or his Radical Left Politics and, importantly, he’s not a talented guy — Just a pushy, obnoxious JERK, who fervently supported Crooked Joe Biden, a mentally incompetent FOOL, and our WORST EVER President, who came close to destroying our Country. If I wasn’t elected, it would have been GONE by now! Sleepy Joe didn’t have a clue as to what he was doing, but Springsteen is “dumb as a rock,” and couldn’t see what was going on, or could he (which is even worse!)? This dried out “prune” of a rocker (his skin is all atrophied!) ought to KEEP HIS MOUTH SHUT until he gets back into the Country, that’s just “standard fare.” Then we’ll all see how it goes for him!

HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN FOR HIS POOR PERFORMANCE DURING HER CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT? WHY DID HE ACCEPT THAT MONEY IF HE IS SUCH A FAN OF HERS? ISN’T THAT A MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION? WHAT ABOUT BEYONCÉ? …AND HOW MUCH WENT TO OPRAH, AND BONO??? I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter. Candidates aren’t allowed to pay for ENDORSEMENTS, which is what Kamala did, under the guise of paying for entertainment. In addition, this was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially build up her sparse crowds. IT’S NOT LEGAL! For these unpatriotic “entertainers,” this was just a CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL way to capitalize on a broken system. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!

Springsteen’s other speeches given during each of his three shows in Manchester:

Introduction to House of a Thousand Guitars

The last check, the last check on power after the checks and balances of government have failed are the people, you and me. It’s in the union of people around a common set of values now that’s all that stands between a democracy and authoritarianism. At the end of the day, all we’ve got is each other.

Introduction to My City of Ruins

There’s some very weird, strange and dangerous shit going on out there right now. In America, they are persecuting people for using their right to free speech and voicing their dissent. This is happening now.

In America, the richest men are taking satisfaction in abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death. This is happening now.

In my country, they’re taking sadistic pleasure in the pain they inflict on loyal American workers.

They’re rolling back historic civil rights legislation that has led to a more just and plural society.

They are abandoning our great allies and siding with dictators against those struggling for their freedom. They are defunding American universities that won’t bow down to their ideological demands.

They are removing residents off American streets and, without due process of law, are deporting them to foreign detention centers and prisons. This is all happening now.

A majority of our elected representatives have failed to protect the American people from the abuses of an unfit president and a rogue government. They have no concern or idea for what it means to be deeply American.

The America l’ve sung to you about for 50 years is real and regardless of its faults is a great country with a great people. So we’ll survive this moment. Now, I have hope, because I believe in the truth of what the great American writer James Baldwin said. He said, “In this world, there isn’t as much humanity as one would like, but there’s enough.” Let’s pray.

Springsteen is scheduled to tour Europe now through July 3rd with shows (in order) in France, England, Germany, Czech Republic, Germany, Spain, Germany and ending with shows in Italy–with the finale taking place on July 3rd.

No U.S. shows have been announced, but with Springsteen having gone overseas to declare war on President Trump and his MAGA supporters, it would be cowardly of him not to play U.S. shows this summer or fall.
