Singer Bruce Springsteen criticized former U.S President Donald Trump at Vice President Kamala Harris' Georgia rally on October 24.
Bruce joined the Democratic presidential nominee and took the stage in Atlanta while bashing Trump. While talking about the qualities he looks for the next U.S President, the singer said,
"I want a president who reveres the constitution, who does not threaten but wants to protect and guide our great democracy, who believes in the rule of law and the peaceful transfer of power, who will fight for a woman’s right to choose, and who wants to create a middle-class economy that will serve all our citizens."
He then went on to endorse Harris by adding,
"There is only one candidate in this election who holds those principles dear: Kamala Harris. She’s running to be the 47th president of the United States. Donald Trump is running to be an American tyrant."
Before beginning his speech, the singer perfomed an accoustic rendition of his songs; Land of Hope and Dreams, and Dancing in the Dark.
