Rock-and-roll superstar Bruce Springsteen lashed out at President Trump this week calling for an “exorcism in our nation’s capital.”
“It is time for an exorcism in our nation’s capital,” Springsteen said on his Sirius XM radio show. “Welcome to our Halloween-Election Day monster mash. This is Vol. 14 of ‘From My Home to Yours’ titled ‘Farewell to the Thief.’ In just a few days, we’ll be throwing the bums out. I thought it was a f—ing nightmare, but it was so true.”
Springsteen also criticized members of Trump’s family for not sharing personal moments with the media and not placing enough art in the White House.
“There’s no art in this White House,” the “Born to Run” singer explained. “There’s no literature, no poetry, no music. There are no pets in this White House, no loyal man’s best friend, no Socks the family cat, no kid’s science fairs, no time when the president takes off his blue suit, red tie uniform and becomes human. Except when he puts on his white shirt and khaki pants uniform and hides from the American people to play golf.”
Springsteen continued: “There are no images of the first family enjoying themselves together in a moment of relaxation. No Obamas on the beach in Hawaii moments, or Bushes fishing in Kennebunkport, no Reagans on horseback, no Kennedys playing touch football on the Cape.”
Springsteen urged listeners to vote Trump out of office next week, calling the country’s current state “rudderless and joyless.”
“We have lost the cultural aspects of society that make America great. We have lost our mojo, our fun, our happiness, our cheering on of others,” he said. “The shared experience of humanity that makes it all worth it. The challenges and the triumph that we shared and celebrated. The unique, can-do spirit that America has always been known for. We are lost. We’ve lost so much in so short a time. On Nov. 3, vote them out.”
Earlier this month, Springsteen predicted a victory for Joe Biden and suggested that he would move to another country if Trump is reelected.
