From where do you conclude that the term "advice and consent" should *only* mean "qualified without regard to political viewpoint"? Not trying to be antagonistic, just curious.
To be honest, it is a phrase that has never been tested nor rendered a strictly legal definition, and your assertion seems awfully forceful given that.
Face it, he didn't blindly drink the trump Kool-Aid, and you and your ilk simply can't stand him for that, so YOU GUYS started with your usual MO in trying to belittle with names and run off posters with different political ideas than yours.

Imagine an American artist going to any other country in the world and telling those people they have 4 months to learn English if they want to understand them.
The left would have a total meltdown and try to have the artist canceled and labeled as the biggest racist on the planet.
For them its literally one of the biggest no-no's and most disrespectful and nazi level things a person can do........
Unless you are doing it to their fellow Americans.
Then magically none of those progressive "values" apply anymore. They just vanish into thin air like fairy dust.
This is why so many of us will never be able to get on board with them. There is just no logic or standards to be found. Its just unhinged, illogical and backwards lunacy.
Everything is backwards and upside down with them. EVERYTHING.

And one might note is actually defending the political action of the Republican Senate, to preserve a SCOTUS appointment in favor of Trump. That is the Republican Senate wasnt really 'misusing' the 'advice and consent' power to swing a seat to Gorsuch from Obama's nominee.
Something that the idiots here keep saying I never do, or have every done. Lolz.

50 cent already did the superbowl. Nelly may have been a part of a show too. The others likely won't do it for free, which is something the NFL liikes. As for Morgan Wallen, his chances were over after he was caught on video dropping n bombs.

So you don’t care about “bad bunny nobody” performing at the largest media event in the US, watched by more Americans than any other show during the year?
You see no issue with the decision to put him on?

They’re going to alienate the demographic with the expendable income to support the NFL, long term. Just like the NBA did.
The demographic that listens to bad bunny doesn’t have any money dude and I’d wager the demographic this board represents ranges from a middle class of mixed race to a fairly affluent, mostly white group.
There are quite a few here who have and make millions and millions of dollars.
Of this group, who is very important to the vendors we are talking about, I’d bet a huge majority loved the NFL and NBA at some point and supported them monetarily.
Now that percentage is cut in half, minimum.
That’s not sustainable for either league.
Replacing a group like this one, with the hip hop crowd is a massive failure monetarily. Massive failure.

Zero issue.
NFL being a private organization, has every right to make any decision it wishes in the matter.
And private individuals have every right to make any decision they make regarding the NFL and their decision.
Its called freedom of choice.
And those private individuals who make their own choice on that NFLs choice, have every right to get bent as far out of shape and as irate as they wish.
Bunny has political stances. As you do. As I do. Feel free to get as bent out of shape as you feel the urge and need to do so. If you feel the absolute urge to make this *your* pollical battlefield, go for it, my friend.
I dont feel that urge. There are stances of his I dont agree with, and stances I do. Have fun with your 'bent out of shape'. I dont chastise you for that, free country and all that jazz.
But seemingly you feel the need to chastise others for their views. Imagine that.
Quote:Bad Bunny sparked controversy at Tuesday night’s New York Yankees game after remaining seated during the performance of “God Bless America.”
As fans rose to their feet during the seventh-inning stretch to sing along, the Grammy-winning artist stayed seated, a moment captured in a live photo obtained by TMZ. The crowd could be heard belting out the lyric “stand beside her and guide her” as the Puerto Rican star appeared unfazed.
The rapper and singer, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has faced heightened scrutiny in recent weeks following his announcement as the upcoming Super Bowl halftime show headliner. Critics have taken aim at his past comments on U.S. immigration enforcement and his decision to perform primarily in Spanish.
Bad Bunny attended the game with friends as the Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 9–6.
Bad Bunny also recently said to Americans, “If you didn’t understand what I just said. You have four months to learn."
Among those who took issue with the announcement that Bad Bunny was going to play the Super Bowl halftime show were Trump adviser Corey Lewandowski and Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who both suggested that immigration enforcement agents could be present at the event.
