Bruce Springsteen's recent concerts in Germany have attracted over 170,000 attendees, reflecting a strong interest in his political messages regarding the dangers posed by the Trump administration. Incorporating speeches into his performances, he warns the audience about the current state of democracy in the United States. His calls for unity against authoritarianism resonate deeply in Germany, where the historical context of democracy's collapse under Nazi rule remains a significant concern. Music critics note the heightened fears among Germans regarding American politics and Trump's tactics.
The mighty E Street Band is here tonight to call upon the righteous power of art, of music, of rock 'n' roll in dangerous times.
In my home - the America I love, the America I have written about - the America that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration.
Tonight, we ask all who believe in democracy and the best of our American experience to rise with us, raise your voices against authoritarianism and let freedom ring.
Germans tend to have angst about a lot of things and they are really afraid of Trump.
