Donald Trump has called Bad Bunny's all-Spanish Super Bowl halftime show 'one of the worst ever' and a 'slap in the face' to America.
The US President said the rapper's gig was 'absolutely terrible' and that there was 'nothing inspirational' about choosing a star who didn't perform in English.
Mr Trump was also deeply unhappy about some of the suggestive dancing because the Puerto Rican artist repeatedly grabbed his crotch and there were women twerking on stage (snip) ''It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn't represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence'.

If it had been performed in English, the FCC would have closed it down 5 minutes in to the "performance".

I agree with President Trump. So we changed the channel at halftime and watched none of the official show or Bunny. I joined 5 million others who rebelled.

Gave up on the NFL and the Super Bowl and their halftime sexual gyrations a long time ago. It appears that I have not missed anything worthwhile.

Is Up With People still around? ;)
All jokes aside, I'd love to see some great All-American high school and college bands perform.

You think Roger Goodall might have secured a little extra personal remuneration from the bad bunny for the show?

Roger Goodell needs to go.

Perhaps we should investigate Goodall. Why did he approve this trash, while calling it "bringing America together"
Does anyone think (as I do) that he is being blackmailed? Perhaps he is buried deep in the Epstein files?

Watched the first half of the Stupor Bowl then switched to the half time show in English. Never went back to watch the second half. Just another football game so I don't see anything super about it. Has been politicized and extravaganzied for years. This one was especially bad all around. Next year will likely be worse.

The NFL was ok with this. That's why they picked this clown. Besides, maybe the NFL doesn't have much of a choice of performers to choose from when it comes to halftime performers. Maybe the number of performers that want to do a halftime show is small. Maybe they should have college marching bands perform and just have a regular halftime. The super bore is so over hyped by the NFL the game itself has become boring.

I watched till halftime because a local guy, Hunter Henry, was playing (I practiced law with his grandfather, Skip Henry). Delighted he was a team captain and I think he represented Arkansas very well. Too bad about the half-time trash, that's when I quit watching.

How is performing a show entirely in Spanish with a predominately English-speaking audience bringing America together? I was a guest, and the channel wasn't changed. Luckily, I didn't understand a word he was singing. I did like the dancing senoritas, when I bothered to watch.
I wouldn't be surprised to learn the fix was in to let the Patsies score a TD so a mafia boss could cover his bet.

Back in 2016, Trump inspired me to boycott the NFL. My boycott is still going strong and Ive only seen a few plays of NFL in the last 9+ years. Not only do I NOT miss it one bit, I actually feel a sense of pride and vindication for steering clear. I have NO need for ghetto in my life.

Just got back from my veteran's popular wet spot and the game was universally panned because of half time. Some tuned out.
