Trump labels Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show 'disgusting for children' amid Epstein controversy

Donald Trump has been very vocal after the popular Super Bowl halftime show, which was performed and led by Bad Bunny. And while the performance is usually the part of the night that becomes the real talk of the town, this time the conversation felt heavier, more political, and way more loaded than usual.

Trump, who often shares his views on celebrity culture, said in a social media post that the Super Bowl halftime show performed by the Puerto Rican singer was “absolutely terrible.”

"Nobody understands a word this guy is saying, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children that are watching," he wrote.

The comment instantly sparked backlash, with many social media users calling Trump out for what they saw as hypocrisy.

Trump and Epstein were photographed together multiple times in the 1990s and early 2000s, and Trump’s name has appeared in records linked to Epstein that have been widely discussed online.

For many people, it was hard to take Trump seriously when he suddenly wanted to play the role of the moral watchdog, especially in a world where the Epstein scandal remains one of the most disturbing examples of how powerful men can move through elite spaces unchecked.

Bad Bunny headlined the show, bringing the Spanish language and reggaetón to the annual American football spectacle, which most people enjoyed. Many shared on social media that it was one of the best halftime shows.

But Trump doubled down in his rant. "This 'show' is just a 'slap in the face' to our country," he continued.

"There is nothing inspirational about this mess of a Halftime show, and watch this will get great reviews from fake news media, because they haven't got a clue what's going on in the REAL WORLD."

That “REAL WORLD” comment is exactly where the conspiracy chatter starts to creep in. In Trump-aligned circles, the phrase often hints at the belief that Hollywood and the entertainment industry are driven by hidden agendas.

Some conspiracy theorists have long claimed that big performances, celebrity culture and major televised events are linked to secret rituals and elite influence - ideas that have only grown louder in the wake of Epstein and the constant suspicion around powerful figures protecting each other behind closed doors.

The 14-minute set included guest performances from Lady Gaga, along with popular celebs Cardi B and Jessica Alba, making it one of the most star-packed halftime shows in recent years. Not even Kendrick Lamar's performance had this much chatter.

Trump’s name has appeared in Epstein’s flight logs, and photographs show him socialising with Epstein at multiple elite parties and events during the 1990s and early 2000s. Critics pointed out that it is difficult to take his concerns about children seriously, given these documented connections.
