The Super Bowl is supposed to be one day where Americans can come together and ignore politics entirely.
But leftists will never pass up an opportunity to inject their political message into the national bloodstream.
And Megyn Kelly noticed one horrible thing during the national anthem at the Super Bowl.
On her radio show Monday, Megyn Kelly ripped the NFL for going woke with this year’s Super Bowl.
“Can I tell you, like, it wasn’t as bad as it’s been in years past, but it was a woke Super Bowl and it was annoying,” Kelly told listeners.
Kelly ridiculed Fox for beating Americans over the head with the fact that the flyover was the first one conducted by all female pilots.
“Why did we need the all female flyover, which they — Fox I mean, even on Fox, they were showing highlights. ‘It’s an all female flyover.’ Oh, okay. All right. Thank you for reminding me that women can be pilots. I didn’t know that,” Kelly snarked.
What really infuriated Kelly – as well as tens of millions of other Americans – was the fact that the NFL trotted Sheryl Lee Ralph onto the field to perform the black national anthem – the song Lift Every Voice and Sing – prior to the playing of the Star Spangled Banner.
“And then of course, we had to have the black national anthem in addition to the regular national anthem, which is totally divisive. There is no reason to have a black national anthem sung before the Super Bowl,” Kelly added.
Kelly found it ridiculous and divisive to segregate the national anthems by race.
“But there’s one national anthem. It unites us all. It’s about love of country. There’s no point in dividing us by race, going into something that is already unifying as a country,” Kelly continued.
Kelly ripped the commercials for featuring a parade of left-wing Hollywood celebrities who openly express their disdain for Republicans.
“And then we had a parade of left-wing celebrities all over the ads from Amy Schumer to Ben Affleck, who won’t even act with a Republican. He refuses to act across anybody who’s openly Republican,” Kelly declared.
The Super Bowl was a great game featuring a last second game winning field goal, but Kelly said leftists and woke corporations were not content to simply let Americans enjoy a great football game in peace.
“All I could think was like, they don’t get it right. Like the people who put together the entertainment, who put together the ads, they’re not even trying to like think about the other half of the country. They’re just pandering. They just wanna pander, pander, pander. And it’s fine. The game was great, but it is a slight irritant as you’re watching the game,” Kelly concluded.
