Donald Trump took to social media to rage about Bad Bunny’s spectacular Super Bowl Halftime Show calling it “disgusting.”
But the truth is – Bunny’s joyous, high-energy performance resonated with millions and millions of people.
Early figures show it was the most-watched halftime performance of all time with more than 135 million viewers. You can watch the full performance on the NFL YouTube channel here.
Meanwhile, the conservative “alternative” half-time event headed up by Kid Rock for Turning Point USA, the “All-American Halftime Show,” drew about 5 million live viewers on YouTube, according to the live view counter.
Posting to Truth Social from his Mar-A-Lago Super Bowl party, Trump wrote:
“Nobody understands a word this guy is saying…?” Sure they do. You don’t have to speak a specific language to understand the message.
The performance – loaded with visual poetry and symbolism of joy, love, family and unity – was fantastic. From the very beginning we saw folks from every age group – seniors, children, parents – together dancing and singing.
And yes, we gays caught this moment of two guys dancing together 🙂

While performing “NUEVAYoL” Bad Bunny handed a Grammy Award to a young boy who was watching the moment the musician won the statuette on TV. The moment symbolized the artist telling his younger self, “Believe in your dreams.”
And there was a wedding in the middle of all this! How “family-friendly” can you get?

Near the end, after listing more than 20 nations in North, Central and South America while dancers trailed him displaying the flags of many of those nations (with the US and Puerto Rican flags most visible directly behind him), he held up a football with the words, “Together We Are America.”
