BREITBART -- Vini “Mad Dog” Lopez, a former longtime drummer for Bruce Springsteen, said the rock legend should show “respect” for President Donald Trump by virtue of him being president.
The original E Street Band Drummer and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer revealed his thoughts about Bruce Springsteen’s and Trump contentious relationship in an interview with the New York Post.
“You gotta have respect for the president,” said Lopez in response to Springsteen calling the White House a “corrupt, incompetent, racist, reckless and treasonous administration” during his “Land of Hope and Dreams” tour.
“Trump is the president of the United States — everyone should have respect for him,” Lopez added. “He is the president of the United States. And if I was standing there talking to him, I would have mucho respect for the man.”
