The View jokes that Trump will ‘ban Black people’ from Super Bowl halftime after Kendrick Lamar set ‘I think today Donald Trump is gonna sign an executive order banning Black people from halftime,’ The View’s Ana Navarro said on Monday.
The hosts of the ABC daytime talk show The View were not only enthralled by Kendrick Lamar’s electric Super Bowl halftime performance, but they joked that the rapper’s set likely upset Donald Trump so much that he was “going to sign an executive order banning Black people from halftime.”.
While much of the attention has centered on Lamar capping off his set with an edited version of his Grammy-winning Drake diss track “Not Like Us,” which also featured surprise guest Serena Williams crip walking, the performance was described by critic Mark Beaumont as representing “a righteous nation baring its teeth” following Trump’s election.
“I wasn’t watching the game, but listen, I think today Donald Trump is gonna sign an executive order banning Black people from halftime,” she exclaimed to laughter and applause from the studio audience.
“With all these attacks on diversity, all these attacks on African Americans, it was so nice to see Black excellence enjoyed in front of the sitting president who decided for the first time to go to the Super Bowl,” Hostin stated before discussing Lamar’s performance in more detail.
