It was just one of several social media posts the president has made on Thursday morning broadly focused on personal grudges and not his Wednesday evening speech about the war.
Trump took an apparent dig at the Supreme Court as a “kangaroo court!!!” and reposted articles dinging ally (and sometimes critic) Tucker Carlson and Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.).
The administration has had shifting goalposts for the White House’s operation in Iran in the month since the attacks kicked off in February. On Wednesday night, he called Tehran an existential threat to “the free world” and urged U.S. allies to assist in opening up the Strait of Hormuz, a pivotal waterway for the transit of the world’s oil supply that has vexed the president.
Springsteen’s advocacy against the president goes back a decade. The “Republic is under siege by a moron,” he told Rolling Stone in September 2016. He has bashed Trump while on tour, and he performed at a “No Kings” rally in protest of the president last Saturday in St. Paul, Minnesota, slamming the White House’s Operation Metro Surge — Trump’s immigration crackdown there — with a new song titled: “Streets of Minneapolis.”
On Thursday, it was the president’s turn to lob an attack.
“MAGA SHOULD BOYCOTT HIS OVERPRICED CONCERTS, WHICH SUCK. SAVE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY,” he wrote.
