Singer-songwriter Bruce Springsteen criticized President Trump for his handling of the coronavirus and his refusal to wear a mask.

In an audio clip from the singer’s SiriusXM show “From My Home to Yours,” he explained that he originally planned to dedicate the episode to songs that celebrate the summer, but the mounting death toll of the COVID-19 pandemic and the administration’s handling of it made him reconsider.

“With 100,000 plus Americans dying over the last few months and the empty, shamed response from our leaders, I’ve been simply pissed off,” he says in the clip that was posted on Twitter. “Those lives deserve better than just being inconvenient statistics for our president’s reelection efforts. It’s a national disgrace.”

“Instead of celebrating the joys of summer today, we will be contemplating our current circumstances with the coronavirus and the cost it has drawn from our nation,” he said. “We will be calculating what we’ve lost, sending prayers for the deceased and the families they have left behind,” he then added.

Without mentioning Trump by name, Springsteen ended his introduction by criticizing the president.

“So, if you are ready for a rock & roll requiem, stay tuned. I’m going to start out by sending one to the man sitting behind the resolute desk,” he said. “With all respect, sir, show some consideration and care for your countrymen and your country. Put on a f—ing mask.”

    Hi does he think we got the vaccines ? Warp speed. He cut thru all the red tape and got them approved & Kamala & Biden said they wouldn’t take it. Biden said no mandate & now he has them. Even for nurses. He also says free tests ,that’s a lie. Don’t even check the border. 170,000 last month. Most ever in our history
