President Donald Trump didn’t mince words when it came to Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance. Right after the Latin singer took the stage, Trump blasted it as a total disaster. He saw it as an insult to everything America stands for under his watch.
“The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, ever,” stated Trump.
“It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of success, creativity or excellence.” His frustration was clear, pointing out how the show fell flat on every level.
One big issue for Trump was the language barrier. Bad Bunny belted out his songs entirely in Spanish, leaving many viewers scratching their heads.
“Nobody understands a word this guy is saying,” Trump noted, highlighting how disconnected it felt from the average American audience.
Then there was the dancing. The choreography involved a group of women moving in ways that Trump called out as over the top and inappropriate.
“The dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching through the U.S.A., and all over the world,” he said. In a family event like the Super Bowl, that kind of display just doesn’t cut it.
Trump tied the whole mess to a bigger picture of national pride. He viewed the performance as a direct jab at the incredible strides America has made during his time in office.
“This show is just a slap in the face to our country, which is setting new standards and records every single day—including the best stock market and 401(k)s in history. There is nothing inspirational about this mess of a halftime show and watch, it will get great reviews from the fake news media because they haven’t got a clue of what is going on in the real world.”
He didn’t stop there. Trump threw in a dig at the NFL’s latest changes, calling for action. “And, by the way, the NFL should immediately replace its ridiculous new kickoff rule.” It’s classic Trump—straight talk on what needs fixing in sports and beyond.
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell tried to defend the choice ahead of time. Just a week before the game, he insisted the halftime show aimed to bring folks together. He praised Bad Bunny as “one of the great artists in the world,” but that rings hollow to many who see the league drifting from its roots.
This backlash didn’t come out of nowhere. Bad Bunny has a history of slamming Trump’s immigration policies. His selection for the Super Bowl slot raised eyebrows among conservatives who value strong borders and law enforcement.
Turning Point USA stepped up to offer a real alternative. They put together their own halftime event, drawing in patriots tired of the mainstream push. It was a direct response to Bad Bunny’s anti-ICE stance.
Just one week before hitting the Super Bowl stage, Bad Bunny used his Grammy acceptance to go political.
“Before I say thanks to God, I’m going to say: ICE out,” he stated. “We are not savage. We are not animals. We are not aliens. We are humans, and we are Americans … the hate gets more powerful with more hate. The only thing that is more powerful than hate is love. So, please, we need to be different. If we fight, we have to do it with love. Yeah. We don’t hate them. We love our people, we love our family, and that’s the way to do it, with love. Don’t forget that, please.”
Statements like that fire up the left but alienate hardworking Americans who support secure borders. TPUSA’s counter-show celebrated true American spirit instead.
