The NFL just won’t stop picking culture war fights with President Trump.
This never ends well for the league.
And the NFL went woke with this disgusting display.
As American Media Watch Dog reports:
NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell believes the league’s future growth depends on international markets.
The NFL plays seven international games during the 2025 season, and Goodell hopes to expand that to a full season’s worth of 18.
To market the game to a global audience, the NFL, in conjunction with Roc Nation, selected Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny as the halftime act for this year’s Super Bowl.
Bad Bunny was the most-streamed artist in the world from 2020 to 2022 before Taylor Swift dethroned him in 2023.
But just like when the NFL didn’t crack down on players’ anti-American national anthem protests, the NFL waded into another culture war fight by picking the anti-Trump and anti-ICE Bad Bunny to perform at the Super Bowl.
Bad Bunny wouldn’t perform in the U.S. on his most recent tour out of fear that ICE agents would show up at stadiums and arrest illegal alien fans.
In an guest-hosting appearance on Saturday Night Live Bad Bunny, who doesn’t have a single song in English, reacted to the backlash to his Super Bowl halftime selection by ranting in Spanish.
“(IN SPANISH) Latinos and Latinas all over the world and here in the United States, all the people who have worked to open doors more than an achievement of mine. More than an achievement of mine, it’s an achievement for everyone, showing that our footprint and our contribution in this country, no one will ever be able to take it out or erase it,” Bad Bunny raged.
Bad Bunny then told Americans it was to them to lean Spanish if they wanted to understand the lyrics to his songs.
President Trump slammed the selection as “ridiculous.”
“I don’t know who he is… I don’t know why they’re doing it. It’s crazy,” Trump told NewsMax.. “And then they blame it on some promoter they hired to pick up entertainment – I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.”
But NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell doubled down in the divisive Bad Bunny claiming an artist who demanded a majority English speaking nation learn his language was a unifying selection.
“It’s carefully thought through,” Goodell told reporters. “I’m not sure we’ve ever selected an artist where we didn’t have some blowback or criticism. It’s pretty hard to do when you have literally hundreds of millions of people that are watching… We’re confident it’s going to be a great show. He understands the platform that he’s on, and I think it’s going to be exciting and a united moment.”
“He’s one of the leading and most popular entertainers in the world. That’s what we try to achieve. It’s an important stage for us. It’s an important element to the entertainment value,” Goodell added.
