Trump continues with his revenge and threatens to investigate Harris payments to Springsteen, Beyoncé or Bono
The chain of insults that the president of the United States, Donald Trump, dedicated a few days ago to Bruce Springsteen -who accused of being “overrated” … and “dry as a pass” or be “darker than a stone”- was just a snack of his particular revenge against the singer for his criticism. The main course has arrived in the last hours with the announcement by the tycoon of “a great investigation” on possible payments of Democrat Kamala Harris, his rival in the 2024 elections, to various artists to support his campaign. The Boss appears in the list but also Beyoncé, Bono (U2) or recognized figures from other areas such as the journalist Oprah Winfrey.
Harris’s campaign for the elections last November was dotted with ‘celebrities’ that warned of the risks of Trump recovering power, as he finally did. The former vice president received support – both in her rallies as through social networks – of characters such as George Clooney, renowned Democrat, Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny, Sarah Jessica Parker, Ricky Martin, Demi Lovato … “The generations of our ancestors are whispening a prophecy (…) It is time for the United States to quarrate Unity, dignity and opportunity, ”Beyoncé proclaimed in one of the electoral events that he aspired to succeed Joe Biden in the White House.
The magnate cuisine has since been revenge against all of them, just as he has done with representatives of the judicial system, media or former colleagues. “The candidates cannot pay for backups, which is what Kamala did, under the coverage of paying for entertainment,” Trump said in his social truth network, where he has criticized the cost of the alleged marketing operation. “This was something very expensive and a desperate attempt to artificially reinforce its low public influx,” said the New York tycoon, before ensuring that the strategy was not “legal.”
«’Antipatriotic artists»
Trump has described some of the mega -stars that supported Harris’s candidacy as “antipatriotic artists” and has defended that the alleged payments by the Democrat were “simply a corrupt and illegal form of taking advantage of a broken system.” The US president has directly pointed out – once – Springsteen “for his poor performance” during a rally. “Why did you earn that money if you are so fan of your? Isn’t it a large and illegal contribution to the campaign? What happened to Beyoncé? When did money go to Oprah and Bono? ”He questioned.
The list of popular faces that supported Kamala Harris during the 2024 electoral campaign is long: Bad Bunny, Sarah Jessica Parker, George Clooney, Beyoncé, Ricky Martin, Oprah Winfrey …
The presenter of the successful ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ already gave explanations in November 2024 about the collection of one million dollars (about 890,000 euros) of the Democratic campaign funds. The money, he said then, went to cover the costs of an interview before the electoral appointment and not as payment for his presence in an act of the then Vice President of the United States.
