Tasos Katopodis / Getty Images, Nbc / Getty Images Last week, Bad Bunny spoke on the backlash during his SNL appearance, where he delivered half of his monologue in Spanish, and then added in English, seemingly as a dig to the Fox News crowd, "If you didn't understand what I just said, you have four months to learn." Nbc / Getty Images Well, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson was recently asked his thoughts on the NFL's decision to choose the Puerto Rican artist as headliner for one of America's biggest stages, and his response is going viral. Bloomberg / Getty Images "I didn't even know who Bad Bunny was, but it sounds like a terrible decision in my view," Johnson told reporters. @Pabloreports / Via x.com BuzzFeed TrendingHot TopicLet's chat about all things PoliticsSee our Politics Discussions "How come?" one reporter asked, to which Johnson responded, "Well, it sounds like he's not someone who appeals to a broader audience." @Pabloreports / Via x.com "And I think, you know, there's so many eyes on the Super Bowl. A lot of young, impressionable children. And I think, you know, in my view, you would have Lee Greenwood or role models doing that. Not somebody like this." @Pabloreports / Via x.com For reference, Lee Greenwood is an 82-year-old country artist who recently sang at Charlie Kirk's memorial service.

I hate these people," another person said. @MeidasTouch / Via x.com And this person pulled Bad Bunny's Spotify listener data to show his appeal to a "broader audience."
