Reggaeton superstar Bad Bunny is set to headline the Super Bowl 2026 halftime show on February 8 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California. The announcement has sparked curiosity about his political stance, with many asking: is Bad Bunny a Trump supporter?
The answer is clear — no. Bad Bunny, born Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has been outspoken against Donald Trump’s policies, especially those impacting Puerto Rico and immigrants. His history shows support for Democratic leaders and progressive causes rather than Trump.
Bad Bunny’s Public Stance on Donald Trump
Bad Bunny has repeatedly criticized Trump’s handling of Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria devastated the island in 2017. Trump’s visit — where he tossed paper towel rolls into the crowd — drew widespread anger. Bad Bunny later referenced the moment in interviews and social media posts, saying Puerto Rico deserved better leadership.
In 2024, he publicly supported Vice President Kamala Harris during her presidential run. Sharing a campaign video with his 45 million Instagram followers, he highlighted Harris’s promises to rebuild Puerto Rico’s economy and condemned Trump for abandoning the island during crisis. His support followed a rally where a comedian at a Trump event made offensive remarks about Puerto Rico.
Bad Bunny has also taken subtle but sharp artistic digs at Trump. In his 2025 album “Debí Tirar Más Fotos,” the song “NUEVAYoL” includes a scene with a Trump-like voice apologizing to immigrants, calling the U.S. “nothing without Mexicans, Dominicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Venezuelans, [and] Cubans.” The statement plays before characters turn the radio off and walk away — widely viewed as a critique of anti-immigrant rhetoric.
Immigration Concerns and Tour Decisions
Bad Bunny shocked U.S. fans when his 2025 world tour skipped American cities. He explained the decision in an interview with I-D magazine, citing fears about Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) crackdowns. He said he worried about the safety of his Latino and immigrant fans attending shows in the U.S.
This decision reinforced his long-standing opposition to harsh immigration policies — many of which were intensified under Trump’s administration, such as expanded ICE arrests and attempts to limit birthright citizenship.
Impact Ahead of the Super Bowl
Bad Bunny’s halftime show is not just entertainment — it represents cultural pride and political messaging. His outspoken defense of Puerto Rico and immigrants could resonate with millions watching around the world. While Donald Trump has attended major sporting events, including the 2025 Super Bowl, there’s no indication the artist’s views have softened toward him.
In short, Bad Bunny is not a Trump supporter. His record shows consistent criticism of Trump’s actions toward Puerto Rico and immigrants, support for Kamala Harris and Joe Biden, and a commitment to using his art for social and cultural advocacy.
