WASHINGTON, DC: Sharing what appears to be an altered version of a close-up picture of Bruce Springsteen’s face on Truth Social on Sunday, April 12, President Donald Trump mocked his appearance and captioned the post, “Bruce Springsteen prior to plastic surgery???”

In the image shared by Trump, Springsteen is seen with liver spots and rotten teeth. 



It is not the first time the POTUS has taken on the singer. Their enmity is rooted in Springsteen’s frequent criticism of Trump and his administration.

Trump said Bruce Springsteen looks like a 'dried-up prune'

Previously, Trump posted a personal attack against Springsteen, intimating that the singer has had plastic surgery, after the Land of Hope and Dreams American Tour opened on March 31 at the Target Center in Minneapolis.

“Bad, and very boring singer, Bruce Springsteen, who looks like a dried up prune who has suffered greatly from the work of a really bad plastic surgeon, has long had a horrible and incurable case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, sometimes referred to as TDS,” he wrote.



In the same post, the POTUS slammed Biden’s administration as "sleepy."

"Under Sleepy Joe and the Dems, our Country was dead, and now we have the 'hottest' Country, by far, anywhere in the World. Maga should boycott his overpriced concerts, which suck. Save your hard-earned money. America is back!!" he said. 

It is to be noted that there have not been any reports of Springsteen undergoing plastic surgery.

"While working Americans struggle, our president and his family enrich themselves by billions of dollars trading on the people's office in corruption unmatched in American history. This is happening now," he stressed at the setup to songs. 

“The America I love, the America I’ve written about for 50 years that’s been a beacon of hope and liberty around the world is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless and treasonous administration,” Springsteen added.
