More Americans believe Bad Bunny embodies the country's values better than Donald Trump
"Donald Trump is the president of the United States, but the population believes that Bad Bunny better embodies American values. According to a survey published by Yahoo and YouGov, a company specializing in market research, the artist best reflects the North American country, with 42% of positive responses, compared to the Republican president, who had 39%. The study was conducted days after the Puerto Rican's performance at halftime during Super Bowl LX, which took place on Sunday, February 8."
"Trump said on social media that the show had been one of the worst in history. It is an affront to the greatness of the United States and does not represent our values of success, creativity, and excellence. No one understands a word this guy says, and the dancing is disgusting, especially for young children. But the numbers tell a different story."
"About 78% of those who identify as Democrats view Bad Bunny favorably, and only 7% reject him. On the other hand, among those who identify as Republicans, only 12% approve of the Puerto Rican, compared to 70% who disapprove. Among independent voters, 46% voted for the artist, while 27% voted for the president. Duolingo, one of the most popular language learning apps, shared a graph on its social media showing a 35% increase in Spanish learners minutes after the artist's performance ended."
A Yahoo and YouGov survey conducted days after Super Bowl LX found 42% of respondents identified more with Bad Bunny as embodying American values, while 39% chose President Donald Trump. The timing followed Bad Bunny's halftime performance on February 8 in Santa Clara, California. Trump criticized the show on social media, calling it an affront to American greatness and disparaging the language and dancing. Partisan splits were large: about 78% of Democrats viewed Bad Bunny favorably versus 7% unfavorable; among Republicans only 12% approved and 70% disapproved. Independents favored the artist 46% to 27%. Duolingo reported a 35% spike in Spanish learning minutes after the performance, and Billboard reported increased travel searches for Puerto Rico.
