Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump Find Themselves Face to Face at US Open

The post Bruce Springsteen and Donald Trump Find Themselves Face to Face at US Open appeared first on Consequence.

Broadcasters were asked to censor the negative reaction to Donald Trump’s attendance at the men’s final of the US Open in Queens, New York, on Sunday. But there was no masking the awkwardness when Trump likely realized Bruce Springsteen was seated just a few feet away.

Springsteen, of course, has spent the past few months on tour in the UK and Europe, denouncing what he has called the “corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous” Trump administration. He also released an EP collecting songs he performed on tour as well as recordings of the speeches he made that provoked the ire of the president.

In response, Trump threatened to block his re-entry into the country, and called for an investigation into Springsteen and other musicians who supported Kamala Harris — though he has yet to follow through on either threat.

As for Trump’s reception at the US Open? You can judge for yourself:
