Alternate title: Grandpa found his phone again, yanked from the actual article that will be quoted. There are actually two articles talking about his meltdown, but I’m only using one. You can find the other one here, but you might want to read this first. Just sayin’. Trust me here. Thanks for the humor, Raw Story:
Political analysts and observers roasted President Donald Trump on Sunday night after he had a “psychotic” meltdown about the Super Bowl LX halftime show. Trump posted on Truth Social that Puerto Rican artist Bad Bunny’s performance during the halftime show was “an affront” to America and said there was “nothing inspirational” about the first Spanish-language halftime show.
Of course not. While Puerto Rico is considered part of the US in a fashion, anyone who speaks Spanish is an immigrant and needs to be thrown out. As we all know, it doesn’t matter if you’re a citizen. Also, Trump can’t understand Spanish to save his life (good to know. Ha.), so of course it was horrible. Personally, it took a lot of guts for the Super Bowl to have an artist who performed in a different language. It hasn’t been seen yet, so no opinion at this time.
“It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn’t represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children who are watching from throughout the U.S.A., and all over the World.” Trump’s comments caused a stir on social media, with political analysts and observers mocking the president’s outburst.
If he was that insulted, why didn’t he turn it off? This is also the same man who flew to Davos but said the flight was too long for him to go to the Super Bowl. He probably didn’t want to get booed. He probably also knew he wouldn’t be able to scam his way into the trophy, either. This whole taking the trophy schtick of his is worth a lot of rage. You can bet that whichever team wins the World Cup this year is going to go after him tooth and nail if he tries to take their trophy. But I digress.
Are children even going to understand the “dancing” that Trump is screaming about? And a lot of them don’t understand Spanish, either. The rest of the world also probably doesn’t give a damn about American football. They might watch the halftime show whenever it posts, if there is a way to do so. But really, Trump is “much ado about nothing”. He probably watched just to have something to fuss about. Yes, you can yawn now.
“Grandpa found his phone at the nurse’s station,” former political journalist Ron Fournier posted on X. //// “Man even Trump didn’t tune in to Kid Rock’s halftime show lol,” columnist Ben Palmer posted on X. //// “Insane meltdown in response to the show’s unifying message: Together, we are America,” CJ Warnke, communications director for the House Majority PAC, posted on X. //// “Just psychotic,” Fred Wellman, a Democratic candidate in Missouri, posted on X.
They must also have missed Grandpa’s meds. The comment about Kid Rock is just awesome. Hadn’t even heard he was going to do one. Ha. No news has been found about that one right now. Maybe later. It would be entertaining to write about, don’t you know? So, Trump embarrasses himself in public (again) and probably doesn’t even realize he did. He’s got a curious tunnel vision. He’s desperately trying to make himself seem important, and it fails every single time. These days, he’s a cipher and not the actual president of the United States. His cabinet does everything for him, so he can rant and rave and then go golfing. Unfortunately, he *is* the president, so we still need to watch him carefully for signs of what he might try next. It gets tiring.
Friends, I know everyone begs you for money. I promise that among all those asking for spare change, we are the smallest and the hardest-working. We’re a group of old, disabled people, except for one writer in his mid-50s. The rest of us are in our sixties and seventies, and this is a labor of love. All we’re asking for is the chance to keep telling the truth about Trump and help ensure democracy survives. If you can help, please do. Thank you. Ursula
‘P’OTUS being a wailing, entitled, dummy spit toddler was so easily triggered by the performance and projected his inner beast, because the flake was not the star attraction.
Trump has hated the NFL for four decades. He wanted to own a team. The owners are clubby, with the bulk of them being rich assholes. Like the social elite of Trump’s hometown NYC they shunned him. For good reason. The story about how Trump tried to take on the NFL using the old USFL, and do what Lamar Hunt did creating the old AFL and building it to a point it was a legitimate league the NFL had to contend with is a long story. Hunt and is fellow upstart owners did things the right way which was a long, painful road. Trump of course went for the quick, dirty and easy route and in an early example of ETTD killed the USFL. And STILL couldn’t get even a minority stake in an NFL team! It’s no wonder he rags on them all the time.
As for him trying to steal the Lombardi Trophy right there on TV in front of everyone he wouldn’t bother. It’s made not of gold, even fake or 10k gold. Nope, it’s truly American, made of steel. Stainless Steel and polished to a high gloss but STEEL. Way too effing ordinary, shiny as it is for Trump. Not to mention it’s got a football on top. Trump’s Kennedy envy has been showing a lot in his second term and he was NEVER tough enough to play football, even touch/two-anywhere games which I can assure you can get pretty rough sometimes. People get knocked down hard all the time when competitive juices heat up! And there’s all that film of Kennedy family football at their compound in Massachusetts. Even JFK who’s body was riddled with disease throwing down with his brothers and cousins!
Well, next thing you know Trump will try to extort the NFL into renaming the Super Bowl the TRUMP BOWL.
The owners are clubby, with the bulk of them being rich assholes.
That’s funny, so even the rich assholes don’t want him around.
