Bruce Springsteen Strongly Endorses Harris And Walz
Dressed in a flannel jacket and sitting at a diner counter, and with a small American flag behind him, Springsteen nodded to his roots even as he tacitly acknowledged he’s now “one of the few” who would probably benefit from Trump’s economics.
Springsteen said he is speaking out with his support because “we are shortly coming upon one of the most consequential elections in our nation's history.” He added, “Perhaps not since the Civil War has this great country felt as politically, spiritually and emotionally divided as it does then at this moment.”
“It doesn't have to be this way,” Springsteen continued. “The common values, the shared stories that make us a great and united nation are waiting to be rediscovered and retold once again.” He acknowledged that will take “time, hard work, intelligence, faith and women and men with the national good guiding their hearts.” In other words, not with Trump at the helm.
“America is the most powerful nation on earth,” Springsteen said, not just because of its military or economic power “but because of what she stands for, what she means, what she believes in: freedom, social justice, equal opportunity, the right to be and love who you want. These are the things that make America great.”
