Trump has been complaining about Bruce Springsteen for years. In fact, you can find tweets about him dating all the way back to 2012. But in a recent interview with Gayle King, The Boss hit back.
Why would Ohio listen to Bruce Springsteen reading his lines? Be careful or I will go to Ohio and @MittRomney will win it!

When King asked the rock legend about the trash-talk Trump was still dishing, years later, Springsteen laughed it off saying “anything’s possible.” He went on to call the President out for his divisive rhetoric and lack of American values:
“The stewardship of the nation has been thrown away to somebody who doesn’t have a clue as to what that means. And unfortunately, we have somebody who I feel doesn’t have a grasp of the deep meaning of what it means to be an American.”
.@Springsteen responds to criticism from Pres. Trump: “We're living in a frightening time… Unfortunately we have somebody who I feel doesn't have a grasp of the deep meaning of what it means to be an American.”
