Analysis: HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN FOR HIS POO...

1y ago May 19, 2025 at 5:34 AM

HOW MUCH DID KAMALA HARRIS PAY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN FOR HIS POOR PERFORMANCE DURING HER CAMPAIGN FOR PRESIDENT? WHY DID HE ACCEPT THAT MONEY IF HE IS SUCH A FAN OF HERS? ISNâT THAT A MAJOR AND ILLEGAL CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTION? WHAT ABOUT BEYONCÃ? â¦AND HOW MUCH WENT TO OPRAH, AND BONO??? I am going to call for a major investigation into this matter. Candidates arenât allowed to pay for ENDORSEMENTS, which is what Kamala did, under the guise of paying for entertainment. In addition, this was a very expensive and desperate effort to artificially build up her sparse crowds. ITâS NOT LEGAL! For these unpatriotic âentertainers,â this was just a CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL way to capitalize on a broken system. Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!

Six months into his presidency and during a major diplomatic trip to Saudi Arabia, Trump posts an early-morning grievance about his defeated opponent's campaign entertainment spending—a legally standard practice he mischaracterizes as criminal. The post reveals unresolved narcissistic injury around crowd size comparisons (a known core vulnerability) and celebrity endorsements of Harris. The threat to launch "a major investigation" into named private citizens (Springsteen, Beyoncé, Oprah, Bono) for legal political activity represents concerning weaponization of presidential power. The temporal incongruity—posting campaign grievances during a diplomatic summit—and the perseverative quality suggest the injury from campaign-period unfavorable comparisons remains psychologically active despite decisive electoral victory. Defense mechanisms include projection (crowd inflation accusations), rationalization (framing grievance as legal matter), and splitting (entertainers as wholly corrupt/unpatriotic). The false legal framework ("candidates aren't allowed to pay for endorsements") constitutes reality distortion, as paying performers for rally appearances is standard, legal, disclosed campaign expenditure practiced by both parties.

Danger Assessment

Elevated

Indicators:

Threat to use presidential investigative power against political opponents' supporters
Framing legal political activity as criminal
Targeting specific named private citizens (entertainers) for government investigation

Gaslighting Detected:

Reframing standard legal campaign expenditures as criminal activity
Presenting false legal theory as established fact ('IT'S NOT LEGAL')
Characterizing normal political support as corruption

Reality Distortions:

Campaign performance fees are standard legal expenditures, not illegal endorsement payments
Both parties pay entertainers for rally performances; this is not unique to Harris
Characterizing legal political activity as requiring criminal investigation

Fact Checks (2)

"Candidates aren't allowed to pay for endorsements"

Mostly False

Campaign finance law prohibits undisclosed payments for endorsements, but paying performers for rally appearances is standard, legal vendor compensation. Both parties routinely pay artists for campaign event performances. This is not an endorsement payment.

"Paying entertainers to perform at rallies constitutes an illegal campaign contribution"

False

Performer fees are legitimate campaign expenditures, not contributions. They are disclosed as vendor payments in FEC filings. Trump's own campaigns have paid performers and entertainers.

Context

Trump was on his Middle East trip (Riyadh, Saudi Arabia) at this time. UTC 05:34 = 08:34 AM Arabia Standard Time (UTC+3). This is morning/business hours in his current location, which might suggest aide involvement, but the content and style are unmistakably authentic Trump.

Authorship

The post exhibits classic authentic Trump markers: ALL CAPS passages alternating with standard case, rhetorical questions building emotional momentum, stream-of-consciousness grievance escalation, and the characteristic "Thank you for your attention to this matter!!!" sign-off (mock-formal). The topic—relitigating Kamala Harris's campaign months after his victory—is characteristically impulsive and not something an aide would draft during a diplomatic trip to Saudi Arabia. The encoding errors (â for apostrophes/special characters) suggest posting from a device or method without proper character handling.

Psychological State

This post is striking for its temporal incongruity: Trump won the 2024 election decisively, is six months into his presidency, and is on a high-profile diplomatic trip—yet he is perseverating on his defeated opponent's campaign tactics. This suggests the narcissistic injury from the campaign period remains unresolved despite victory. The "sparse crowds" reference is particularly revealing, as crowd size is a known core narcissistic vulnerability.

Defense Mechanisms

Projection: Accusing Harris of "artificially building up crowds" mirrors long-standing accusations about Trump's own crowd inflation
Rationalization: Framing personal grievance as a legal matter ("I am going to call for a major investigation")
Splitting: Entertainers cast as entirely corrupt/unpatriotic vs. implied virtuous Trump supporters

Rhetorical Analysis

The post follows a classic prosecutorial-rhetorical structure: (1) accusatory questions building momentum, (2) declaration of action, (3) legal framing, (4) moral condemnation. The scare quotes around "entertainers" function as devaluation. "Unpatriotic" conflates political opposition with disloyalty to the nation—a classic authoritarian rhetorical move.
