'CORRUPT & UNLAWFUL' | Trump blasts Kamala Harris’ celeb-endorsed campaign -- Calls for Probe.

Donald Trump has launched a fiery tirade against former presidential rival Kamala Harris, accusing her of bribing celebrities for endorsements during the 2024 campaign. Trump claims entertainers like Beyoncé, Bruce Springsteen and Oprah may have accepted payments in violation of campaign finance laws and is calling for a “major investigation.” In a series of heated social media posts, Trump mocked Springsteen as a “dried out prune” and slammed him for criticizing America from a concert stage abroad. These accusations come as Trump intensifies efforts to cast the Democratic campaign as corrupt, reigniting long-standing hostilities with liberal celebrities who have openly opposed him. #TrumpVsHarris #KamalaHarris #TrumpRant #CampaignFinance #Springsteen #Beyonce #Oprah #Bono #Trump2024 #CelebrityPolitics #ElectionScandal #IllegalEndorsements #TrumpSpeaksOut #USPolitics #CampaignControversy #BruceSpringsteen #Harris2024 #TrumpAttacks #EntertainmentAndPolitics #PoliticalDrama #BreakingNews #TrumpVsCelebrities #TrumpSocialMedia #TrumpInvestigation #CorruptionClaims #CampaignFunding
