Remember when the Super Bowl was just about football? Families would gather around the TV, arguing over plays and commercials, united by a uniquely American spectacle. It was an annual truce in the never-ending culture war, a day when we could all just be fans.
That America is fading fast in the rearview mirror. Today, the cultural architects are hell-bent on turning every cherished tradition into a political lecture. The latest institution to fall victim is the Super Bowl itself, and our Commander-in-Chief is having none of it.
From ‘The Daily Wire’:
“I’m anti-them. I think it’s a terrible choice. All it does is sow hatred. Terrible,” the president said. He also noted that his reason for skipping was that the Super Bowl is being played this year in California. “It’s just too far away. I would. I’ve [gotten] great hands [at] the Super Bowl. They like me,” Trump told NY Post. “I would go if, you know, it was a little bit shorter.”
Let’s be honest about Trump’s statement. The bit about the game being “too far away” is the polite cover story. The real message here is a presidential middle finger to a league that has completely lost the plot. His refusal to attend is a powerful stand against the NFL’s blatant disregard for the values of millions of Americans.
The NFL’s Open Contempt for Half of America
Don’t for a second think the NFL’s top brass are clueless. In selecting performers like Puerto Rican singer Bad Bunny and the perpetually aggrieved Green Day, they knew precisely what they were doing. Both acts are famous for their hostility toward the Trump administration and the conservative principles he champions. This wasn’t some clerical error. It was a calculated insult.
The NFL is broadcasting a clear message to patriotic, hardworking Americans: this game is no longer for you. Your values are obsolete. The league has thrown its lot in with the coastal elites and social justice activists who look down on this country, abandoning the heartland that built it. By staying home, President Trump is giving voice to millions who are fed up with the insults.
An Insult to Law Enforcement and American Values
But the choice of Bad Bunny? That’s on another level of disgraceful. This is a performer who has publicly called our brave Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents “motherf***ers” and “sons of b****es” for the simple act of enforcing our nation’s laws. He even boasted about avoiding tour dates in America because he was worried ICE would be there doing their job.
The NFL is handing its most coveted stage to a man who despises American law enforcement. And just to rub salt in the wound, when Americans pointed out that none of his songs are in English, he arrogantly told everyone to learn Spanish. This is the sneering, anti-American posture the NFL has chosen to celebrate.
A Pattern of Disrespect
This fiasco isn’t an anomaly. It is the culmination of the NFL’s long, pathetic slide into woke irrelevance. This is the same league that genuflected to Colin Kaepernick, sanctioning open disrespect for our flag and national anthem. It’s the same league that paints woke slogans in its end zones. All while happily cashing checks from the very fans whose values they trample.
For years, the league has followed a predictable script: when forced to choose between honoring this country and appeasing the radical left, it makes the wrong choice every single time. This year’s halftime show is merely the most flagrant example of the NFL’s ongoing betrayal of its base.
President Trump’s decision is about far more than a football game. It’s a demonstration of true leadership. He knows the battle for America’s soul isn’t just fought in Congress, but in our culture. By rejecting a politicized Super Bowl, he stands with every American tired of watching our heritage be degraded. He is reminding us that our national pride is not for sale.
Key Takeaways
- President Trump is skipping the Super Bowl over its woke halftime show.
- The NFL chose a performer who viciously attacks U.S. immigration agents.
- This is another example of the NFL alienating its patriotic fanbase.
- Cultural institutions are being weaponized to push a left-wing agenda.
