Puerto Rican artist has faced a huge backlash since he was announced as the Super Bowl performer last year, with Trump calling it “absolutely ridiculous.”
Trump continued, "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."
The Grammy-winningartist had represented his Puerto Rican culture to the world's biggest football stage at Levi Stadium as he sang in Spanish. His show was made even more entertaining by special appearances by Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.
Concluded his complaint post about the performance, he wrote, "And, by the way, the NFL should immediately replace its ridiculous new Kickoff Rule."
This is not the first time that Trump has criticised the decision to choose Bunny.
During his appearance on NewsMax’s Greg Kelly Reports in October, he said, "I've never heard of him (Bad Bunny). I don't know who he is.''
Bad Bunny's performance was a tribute to his culture. He delivered a halftime show that subtly included political messages. Throughout the performance, Bunny carried a football inscribed with the phrase “Together We Are America.”
He ended his performance by naming countries across the Americas with the stadium screen displayed, “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.”
