Trump Eager to See Favored Performer at Super Bowl, White House Reveals
As the Super Bowl approaches, interest in the halftime show has intensified, particularly surrounding President Donald Trump’s preferences. The event will take place at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, featuring performances from controversial artists like Bad Bunny and Green Day.
Trump’s Halftime Show Preferences
Reports indicate that President Trump is favoring Kid Rock over Bad Bunny for the halftime show. Kid Rock is set to perform during a rival event organized by the conservative group Turning Point USA (TPUSA). This group criticizes Bad Bunny, labeling him as too “woke.”
According to press secretary Karoline Leavitt, Trump is likely to watch the TPUSA’s “All American” halftime show instead. Leavitt commented on Trump’s preference, stating, “I think the president would much prefer a Kid Rock performance over Bad Bunny.”
Game Predictions and Interests
While Leavitt confirmed that Trump would not predict the outcome of the game, she expressed her own preference for the New England Patriots. As a New Hampshire native, Leavitt’s enthusiasm for the Patriots added a personal touch to her comments.
Concerns About Bad Bunny’s Performance
Amid discussions about the halftime show, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell addressed concerns regarding Bad Bunny potentially making a political statement during his performance. Goodell emphasized Bad Bunny’s status as a significant artist and the importance of using the halftime platform to unify audiences.
- Bad Bunny and Green Day are set to perform at the Super Bowl.
- Kid Rock will be featured in a counter-halftime show by Turning Point USA.
- Leavitt indicates Trump’s preference for Kid Rock due to his political stance.
- Trump refrains from predicting the winner of the game between the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots.
Goodell expressed confidence in Bad Bunny’s ability to deliver a strong performance, stating, “I think Bad Bunny understands that, and I think he’ll have a great performance.” As the Super Bowl draws closer, artist selections and their implications continue to stir public interest and discussion.
