- Trump urged his MAGA supporters to boycott Springsteen's concerts, calling them overpriced and unappealing, despite the limited availability of tickets for Springsteen's ongoing politically themed "Land of Hope and Dreams" American tour.
- Springsteen's tour, which began in Minneapolis and is set to conclude in Washington, D.C., addresses current social and political issues, including tributes to victims of federal agent shootings in Minneapolis.
