So I think that just, like, that\u2019s what the Super Bowl has always been about. I mean, that\u2019s what the NFL understands now that Jay-Z is in charge of the halftime performance. It\u2019s sort of like putting your arms around America and saying, \u201cThis is all us.\u201d And then that\u2019s what Bad Bunny had messaged on the football set, right? \u201cThis is America, all of us together.\u201d And that has never been what MAGA has supported. They\u2019ve always been like, \u201cThis 30 percent of America matters. And then everybody else\u2014sort of screw yourself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Sargent: Exactly. Well, so MAGA, in fact, erupted over this show. Nick Adams, one of Trump\u2019s picks as an ambassador, asked, \u201cWas a single word of English spoken during the show?\u201d Laura Loomer said, \u201cCan\u2019t even watch a Super Bowl anymore because immigrants have literally ruined everything.\u201d And another MAGA influencer attacks Bad Bunny as a \u201cfake American citizen performing who publicly hates America.\u201d Well, there you have it, right? Like, to them, it is the very fact that immigrants were being celebrated that itself made it unbearable.<\/p>\n
Carrasquillo: Yes. And of course there\u2019s so much to break down there, which is, for example\u2014is it Jake Paul or Logan Paul? I get them confused because they just matter so little to me, but it was Jake Paul. Jake Paul, who called Trump\u2014who called Bad Bunny a \u201cfake American citizen\u201d who has benefited from Puerto Rico\u2019s tax laws living there so he can keep his money, right? And AOC sort of eviscerated him over that on Twitter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"So I think that just, like, that\u2019s what the Super Bowl has always been about.
