Critics Mock Trump’s Super-Triggered Meltdown Over Bad Bunny
“Nobody understands a word this guy is saying,” Trump griped on his Truth Social website about Bad Bunny’s performance, which ― like his award-winning music ― was almost entirely in Spanish. Trump also complained that the performance was “an affront to the Greatness of America” and “a ‘slap in the face’ to our Country.”
Bad Bunny’s performance wasn’t overtly political. Other than one sequence of dancing and singing atop mock electrical poles – which many took to be a reference to Puerto Rico still battling power outages nearly a decade after Hurricane Maria – the closest the show came to politics was a message on the video screen at Levi’s Stadium that said: “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”
It was a callback to his speech at the Grammy Awards in which Bad Bunny said “ICE out” as he slammed Trump’s immigration crackdown while appealing for unity and love. However, he also shouted “God bless America” and extended that sentiment to all the nations of the hemisphere as he name-checked each one.
“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 wrote.
