Trump slams Bruce Springsteen as 'total loser' and 'dried up prune' following singer's criticism
United States President Donald Trump has launched into his latest tirade against singer Bruce Springsteen.
Trump and 'The Boss' have been locked in a public feud for quite some time now, with the latest update in the saga seeing the president take some time out of his busy schedule to slam Springsteen, 76, after his comments made during a recent 'No Kings' protest.
The 'Born in the U.S.A' singer, who once co-hosted a podcast with former Democratic President Barack Obama, recently launched a political tour in Minneapolis in honour of the city’s protests against Trump's crackdown on immigration.
"The power and the solidarity of the people of Minneapolis, of Minnesota, was an inspiration to the entire country," Springsteen told a crowd in St. Paul last Saturday (29 March).

"Your strength and your commitment told us that this is still America, and this reactionary nightmare, and these invasions of American cities will not stand."
Taking to Truth Social earlier this afternoon (2 April), the 79-year-old Republican penned: "Bad, and very boring singer, Bruce Springsteen, who looks like a dried up prune who has suffered greatly from the work of a really bad plastic surgeon, has long had a horrible and incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, sometimes referred to as TDS.
"The guy is a total loser who spews hate against a President who won a Landslide Election, including the popular vote, all Seven Swing States, and 86% of the Counties across America."
Trump continued: "Under Sleepy Joe and the Dems, our Country was DEAD, and now we have the “hottest” Country, by far, anywhere in the World.
"MAGA SHOULD BOYCOTT HIS OVERPRICED CONCERTS, WHICH SUCK."
He concluded the rant: "SAVE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY. AMERICA IS BACK!!! President DJT."
Trump's feud with Springsteen has been public for quite some time now.
Last May, Springsteen called the White House 'corrupt, incompetent and treasonous' while performing at Co-op Live in Manchester, England.
"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!" Springsteen said to the cheering crowds.
Inevitably, it didn't take long for Trump to run to Truth Social to hit out over the rocker's remarks at the time: "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."
Trump also exclaimed that Springsteen 'ought to keep his mouth shut'.
