Narrator:
President Trump has accused Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen and others of participating in what he calls an “illegal election scam” run by Kamala Harris’ campaign during the 2024 election. The president is calling for a “major investigation” into their “corrupt” endorsements of former vice president Kamala Harris. Trump took his frustrations to Truth Social, where he questioned how much Bruce, Beyoncé, Bono, and Oprah were paid.
“How much did Kamala Harris pay Bruce Springsteen for his poor performance during her campaign for president? What about Beyoncé? …And how much went to Oprah, and Bono??? I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter. It’s not legal! For these unpatriotic ‘entertainers,’ this was just a corrupt & unlawful way to capitalize on a broken system. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!”
The president didn’t just make one post about the former vice president’s celebrity endorsements—nope, he doubled down on claims that this was an illegal election scam.
“According to news reports, Beyoncé was paid $11,000,000 to walk onto a stage, quickly endorse Kamala, and walk off to loud booing for never having performed, not even one song! This is an illegal election scam at the highest level! It is an illegal campaign contribution! Bruce Springsteen, Oprah, Bono, and, perhaps, many others, have a lot of explaining to do!!!”
