MAGA Thoroughly Flips Out Over ‘Satanic’ Kendrick Lamar’s Super Bowl Show

Conservatives melted down over Kendrick Lamar’s performance at the Super Bowl halftime show on Sunday.

Some of President Donald Trump’s MAGA acolytes said they couldn’t understand what the Grammy Award-winning musician was rapping about during his set. Others suggested he was somehow in league with the devil.

Actor Samuel L. Jackson’s appearance as Uncle Sam has been interpreted as a diss toward Trump.

Ben Shapiro referenced Trump’s response last week to an Afghan reporter, whose accent the president purportedly didn’t understand when he wrote on social media: “Actually, it’s a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is, I can’t understand a word you’re saying. But I just say this: good luck, live in peace.”

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) asked if she was “the only one needing subtitles for this!!” Former Rep. George Santos (R-N.Y.) called the show “absolute TRASH.”

Commentators Eric Daugherty and Benny Johnson, meanwhile, called the show “Black nationalist” and Lamar a “mumbling pagan Satanic cultist.”

The halftime show you just watched is clearly the regime’s response to Trump’s historic gains with black men.

Halftime show should have just been @realDonaldTrump dancing to YMCA.

What the hell is this shit??

Hey NFL,

Trump won.

We no longer let talentless mumbling pagan satanic cultists do halftime shows and pretend like people like it.

Thanks, everyone

This half-time show is gibberish, but at least it appears to be patriotic.

My halftime show review:

Actually, it's a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is, I can't understand a word you're saying. But I just say this: good luck, live in peace.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) February 10, 2025

10 seconds into halftime show….

Already horrible and it’s falling fast.

Yep… crash and burn…

Entertainment is at its lowest point of acceptability in history.

Put a band like Tool out there. This music is garbage. It’s isn’t even music. Just noise.
