Remember when the Super Bowl actually brought Americans together? It was a welcome break from politics, a day for family and friends to gather around a shared cultural event. We could all enjoy the game, the spectacle, and a halftime show that celebrated talent that didn’t come with a side of divisive, anti-American lecturing.
Those days, it seems, are long gone. Instead, our most cherished institutions are run by corporate boardrooms, apparently living on another planet, that make baffling decisions that alienate their core audience. You’re left staring at the screen, asking a simple question: Who is this for? When the President of the United States has to step in, you know a serious line has been crossed.
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
President Trump is not on board with the NFL’s decision to have ICE-bashing artist Bad Bunny as the Halftime Show performer at Super Bowl LX in February…
“I never heard of him. I don’t know who he is, I don’t know why they’re doing it, it’s crazy, and then they blame it on some promoter that they hired to pick up entertainment, I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.”
That was President Trump, of course, calling out the NFL’s absolutely bizarre decision to name the divisive activist Bad Bunny as the headliner for the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show. With that one withering statement, the President channeled the thoughts of millions of Americans who had no idea who this guy was but immediately recognized the insult.
The President Responds to the NFL’s Latest Blunder
Trump’s rebuke is more than just a celebrity soundbite; it’s a defense of the American people. His statement perfectly captures the absurdity of the situation: the NFL, a league built on the backs of patriotic, hard-working citizens, has decided to showcase a performer who represents everything they stand against.
This isn’t about musical preference. This is about a basic level of respect for the country and the audience that makes your billion-dollar enterprise possible. By anointing a polarizing activist to its biggest stage, the NFL is sending a clear message: it holds its own fans in utter contempt.
An Anti-American Record
If you think that’s an exaggeration, a quick look at Bad Bunny’s record proves otherwise. This isn’t just some foreign pop star; he is an activist who openly vilifies American law enforcement.
The singer has publicly spewed vile hatred toward our Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents, calling them “motherfers” and “sons of b*es.” He has even admitted that he refused to tour in the United States because he was worried that ICE—the federal agents who protect our borders and enforce our laws—might show up.
This is who the NFL wants your kids to see as a role model. A man who despises the very people who keep our country safe. It is an astonishing slap in the face to every law enforcement officer and every citizen who believes this nation has a right to its own borders.
Mocking Half the Country
Faced with a tidal wave of backlash from everyday Americans, Bad Bunny could have shown some humility. Instead, he doubled down on the arrogance. During a gig on “Saturday Night Live,” he openly mocked his critics—the patriotic Americans who form the bedrock of the NFL’s audience.
After a monologue in Spanish, he turned to the camera with a sneer. His grand solution to the controversy? He told everyone who pays his bills to “learn Spanish.” Really!? It was a condescending, elitist jab aimed squarely at anyone who dares to love their own country and its culture. It was a direct insult to MAGA America.
The battle lines are drawn. On one side are the out-of-touch corporate elites and their chosen performers who despise this country’s traditions. On the other is President Trump and the millions of Americans who are done with the lectures and tired of the disrespect. The NFL has made its choice. Now, it’s time for Americans to make theirs.
Key Takeaways
- President Trump’s rebuke echoes the frustration of millions of patriotic Americans.
- The NFL’s choice reveals its growing contempt for its traditional, conservative fanbase.
- The chosen performer has a public record of vile attacks against U.S. law enforcement.
