The Spat Between Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump

It’s widely known that rocker Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump are not on friendly terms (which is good news), and that a lot of this is finding its way into the news.

Personally, if my approval rating were in the 30s, I’d be loath to pick a PR fight with one of our nation’s most beloved celebrity musicians. Most of us in that unwelcomed position would be inclined to let stuff like this slide, but it’s just not in Trump’s DNA to let insults pass without making a big deal of them and further making himself look like a pathetic madman.

It’s funny that Trump called The Boss “overrated.” Apparently, he likes the word, insofar as that’s what he called both actress Meryl Streep and former defense secretary James Mattis, about which Mattis quipped, “I guess that makes me the Meryl Streep of generals.”
