President Donald Trump has taken a strong stance against Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime performance, describing it as “one of the worst, EVER!”

Trump’s comments sparked a wave of reactions from his MAGA supporters, who criticized the NFL for what they perceived as a lack of respect for America’s premier sporting event.

In a heated post on Truth Social, the former president criticized the Grammy-winning Puerto Rican artist shortly after his performance captivated an audience of hundreds of millions at Super Bowl LX, held at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California.

Trump expressed his dissatisfaction, stating, “The Super Bowl Halftime Show is absolutely terrible, one of the worst, EVER!”

He further remarked, “It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence.”

The former president also suggested that the performance failed to connect with American audiences.

‘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,’ he wrote. 

‘This ‘Show’ is just a ‘slap in the face’ to our Country.’

Bad Bunny shouted ‘God bless America!’ near the end of the show while highlighting countries across the Americas, including Puerto Rico

Trump also predicted media praise for the performance would be dishonest.

‘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,’ Trump added.

Trump’s post also tied the halftime controversy to his broader political messaging, boasting that America was ‘setting new standards and records every single day – including the Best Stock Market and 401(k)s in History!’ 

Trump’s attack instantly galvanized supporters, with far-right activist Laura Loomer accusing the NFL of betraying American values.

‘The NFL should apologize to the American people for flooding the Super Bowl with foreign flags,’ Loomer wrote. ‘Totally disgraceful. There’s nothing American about any of this.

‘Someone call an ICE raid at the Super Bowl! What are all of these foreign flags????? Illegal aliens and Latin hookers twerking at the SuperBowl. Not a single white person or English translation at the Super Bowl. This isn’t White enough for me. Cant even watch a Super Bowl anymore because immigrants have literally ruined everything,’ Loomer added.

Plenty of other viewers appeared equally appalled at what they had witnessed on the field.

Others likes the performance and cultural entertainment displayed by Bad Bunny

‘The NFL had a once in a lifetime to honor the USA with a Happy 250th Birthday half-time show. They blew it with foreign flags and a Spanish speaker. What a disgrace,’ fumed one. 

‘The last I knew the Super Bowl was an American game, not a world game. The only flag that should have flown is the Stars and Stripes,’ added another. 

‘Welcome to Roger Goodell’s NFL!!! My grandchildren and I tuned in to the TPUSA halftime show. My wife said she watched a little of Bad Bunny out of curiosity and everything was in Spanish and “he grabbed his di*k majorly”. Goodell has allowed scum into our American pastimes!!’ wrote another X user.

Others came to Bad Bunny’s defense while blasting Loomer’s take.

‘139M watched it, Laura and it was an absolute blast to watch. I’m sorry multicultural scares you. 5M watched turning point and the headliner that has pedophilia in his lyrics As Donald would say, “ratings”’, posted one user.

‘Bad Bunny was entertaining. Obviously some of the lyrics and dancing are what you’d expect from a hip hop act, but overall, pro-family, pro Puerto Rican/Latin culture – yes, but also pro American. Sorry, just my honest assessment,’ added another.

‘The performance was a vibrant, well-put-together celebration and tour of Puerto Rican and broader Latin culture. Opening in sugar cane fields, nods to street foods, wedding (between man and woman!)’, wrote a third.

The controversy exploded as Bad Bunny delivered one of the most culturally ambitious halftime shows in Super Bowl history in a performance that celebrated his Puerto Rican roots and broader Latin American identity.

The 31-year-old reggaeton superstar headlined the halftime show becoming the first Latino and Spanish-language artist to perform solo in the coveted slot.

His 13-minute set transformed the field into a vivid tribute to Puerto Rico, complete with sugar cane imagery, traditional cultural references, and dancers wearing iconic pava hats.

The Super Bowl half time show choice of Bad Bunny appeared to trigger far-right activist Laura Loomer who posted several racists tweets
