Donald Trump Reacts To Bad Bunny's Super Bowl Performance
Even before the Super Bowl, Trump and other MAGA supporters were swearing off Bad Bunny's performance, instead supporting an "All American" halftime performance put on by Turning Point USA. However, photos from the Mar-a-Lago resort show TV screens tuned into Bad Bunny's performance, and based on Trump's tweets following the show, he opted to watch Bad Bunny perform.
"The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER!" Trump began his tweet. "It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn't represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence. Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World."
"This 'Show' is just a 'slap in the face' to our Country," he continued, "which is setting new standards and records every single day–including the Best Stock Market and 401(k) 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."
Social Media Reactions
Across social media platforms, users were quick to point out that Trump must've tuned into the show if he has such negative reviews of Bad Bunny's performance. Others pointed that it's strange for him to be so suddenly interested in what young children are watching after his name was mentioned over 30,000 times in the Epstein files. More users still argued that Bad Bunny's performance became the most watched show in history, so calling it "the worst ever" is more than a little off base.
"So he watched [Bad Bunny's performance] instead of the Turning Point show he pushed so hard??" one person questioned on Instagram.
"If Trump's saying it's terrible, that's how you know it was good," another said.
"Umm, don't know if this guy should be the judge of what's appropriate for young children," said another.
"Keep crying old man!" another comment reads.
