After Bruce Springsteen He made a tough statement in one of his recent concerts in Europe, as expected, Donald Trump He was not silent. But this time it went beyond his classic counterattack in networks and He asked for formal investigation against Springsteen, Beyoncé and other celebrities.
It all started with a springsteen comment that, although he did not mention names, was quite clear in his message.
A few days later, from his social truth network, Trump responded with a series of accusations that combine politics and some conspiracy theory. In his publication, he not only accused Springste in having received money from Kamala Harris for supporting his presidential campaign, but also mentioned other celebrities such as Beyoncé, Oprah and Bono, suggesting that everyone would have been paid to support the then candidate.
“How much did Kamala Harris pay Bruce Springsteen for his bad performance during his presidential campaign? Why did he accept that money if he is so fanatic of her? Isn’t it an important and illegal campaign contribution? And what about Beyoncé? And how much did they give Oprah and Bono? I will ask for a thorough investigation on this matter“The president wrote.
What Trump raises in his publication is that the presentations of these artists during the Harris campaign could have been an undercover way of making illegal contributions. Describing it as a corrupt and illegal way to take advantage of a failed system.
“Candidates cannot pay for support, which is what Kamala did, under the pretext of paying for entertainment. In addition, this was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially increase its low audience. It is not legal! For these antipatriot artists, this was simply a corrupt and illegal way to take advantage of a failed system“He added.
In addition, he said Beyoncé would have received $ 11 million to appear in a rally in Houston during the campaign, something that was quickly denied at the time by Tina Knowles, mother of the singer.
“The lie is that Beyoncé received millions of dollars for speaking in a rally … when in reality, Beyoncé did not receive a penny”Knowles wrote.
This new episode is not too surprising. Springsteen and Trump have had public differences for a long time. The musician has been one of the most constant critics of the president, while Trump has lashed out at him every time he has an opportunity.
Although at the moment the case has not yet climbed beyond the statements, it has already generated debate about, if this is a real attempt to enforce the electoral law, or simply a new way of attacking those who are not on Trump’s side?
