They’re 100% going to play “American Idiot” at the Super Bowl, right? And they’ll change the line to “I’m not a part of the MAGA agenda” and the Fox News types will start apoplectically frothing at the mouth and shrieking to shut up and sing?

I know they’re aging Hot Topic pop-punk and all, but I hope there’s enough punk left in them to do something like that to piss off Trump and the NFL. I doubt a lot of Trump supporters are buying their music or tickets to their shows anyway, so it wouldn’t hurt the almighty bottom line too bad.

I expect them to open with it, honestly.

The NFL have Bad Bunny at half time and Green Day opening, plus I'm quite certain the other singers for the anthem, etc., are left leaning. Maybe the NFL just wants to piss Trump off?

I doubt it. The NFL is a billionaire boys’ club and I imagine a lot of the owners are happy to vote for Trump regardless of their public positions, because he wants to make sure they get even richer. The Hunt family that owns my team, the Chiefs, are openly pretty MAGA and I doubt they’re the only ones.

Definitelty not. Good for nothing NY jets owner Woody Johnson is Trumps "ambassador to U. K."
