The feud between President Donald Trump and veteran rock star Bruce Springsteen escalated Wednesday after the commander in chief posted a doctored video to social media showing him hitting the singer with a golf ball.

In the posts, shared to the president's Truth Social and X accounts, Trump is shown hitting a golf ball. The video then shows a clip of Springsteen, 75, tripping at one of his shows and rolling as he falls onto the stage. A golf ball appears to be added into the second clip as if Trump was responsible for hitting Springsteen and making him fall.

The post comes as the president and the “Born in the U.S.A.” singer have publicly traded barbs after Springsteen's comments last week during the opening show of his European tour.

“The America I love, the America I’ve written about, that has been a beacon of hope and liberty for 250 years, is currently in the hands of a corrupt, incompetent and treasonous administration,” he said.

He went on to accuse the Trump administration of “abandoning the world’s poorest children to sickness and death ... taking sadistic pleasure in the pain that they inflict on loyal American workers,” and rolling back civil rights in the United States.
