Donald Trump's Taylor Swift & Bruce Springsteen contributions by AMF condemned

Donald Trump recently launched online rants that aimed at one but two of the largest musicians in the world, and the American Federation of Musicians International does not slip.

Hours after Trump wrote that Taylor Swift was no longer “hot” when Bruce Springsteen in the posts Friday (May 16) called “Dumb as rocks” about the social truth as “stupid rock”, AFM international President Tino Gagliardi gave an explanation in which the “attacks” were condemned to two of the members of the union.

“The American Federation of Musicians of the USA and Canada will not be silent because two of our members – Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift – are awarded and personally attacked by the President of the United States,” Gagliardi began.

“Bruce Springsteen and Taylor Swift are not just brilliant musicians. They are role models and inspiration for millions of people in the USA and all over the world,” continued the explanation. “Whether it is Born in the USA Or the Eras tour, their music is timeless, effective and has a deep cultural meaning. Musicians have the right to freedom of expression, and we are in solidarity with all of our members. “

The “anti -hero” singer and e Street Band Leader are only two of tens of thousands of musicians who are part of the AFM, who “negotiates fair agreements, protects ownership of recorded music, ensure advantages such as health care and pensions and lobbies for musicians and the rights of workers”, according to the Union's website. Swift is a member of her local branch in Nashville, while Springsteen part of the chapters is both in Los Angeles and in his home state New Jersey, according to AFM's statement.

The defense of the two stars by the organization underneath Trump's Tirade against both on Friday. Starting with Swift, the politician had written: “Has anyone noticed that since I said” I hate Taylor Swift “, is she no longer hot?”

The remark is eight months after he was published for the first time that he hated the 14-time Grammy winner for Truth Social after promoting his opponent Kamala Harris in the 2024 elections. Trump has a long history directed by Barbed comments at Swift and previously made fun of her because she was booed in February in the Super Bowl by Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Shortly after the name that bore the Eras headliner by name, Trump turned his attention to the boss. In response that Springsteen beat the “corrupt, incompetent and treacherous administration” two days earlier at a concert in Manchester, England, Manchester, England, Trump wrote: “Never liked him, never liked his music, or his radical left politics, and above all he was a talented guy – just an intrusive, Olliger Hockous Called, whatever you gave yourself with a spotted Heucher who gotten what with a ball of howls, which gave you what you had with a ball when he had crossed it. ”

At the time of printing, neither Swift nor Springsteen Trump's recent comments had addressed, but both were loud in their resistance to the leader of the Republican Party. The “karma” artist not only supported his opponents in both of the last two elections, but also criticized his guidelines several times. And in 2020 the rock star called “Dancing in Dark” Rockstar Trump a “threat” for democracy and told The Atlantic“It simply makes every kind of reform so much more difficult … these are all existential threats to our democracy and our American way of life.”
