    How dare a US citizen sing at an event for a sport only played in the US - he should be celebrating how self-aggrandising the whole shamozzle always seems to be. But we all know Trump doesn’t realise Puerto Rico is part of the US (albeit being taxed without representation - something the US fought the War of Independence/Revolutionary War over but we’ll conveniently ignore that too).

      TBF, until pretty recently Puerto Rico didn’t want to be a state. Also, DC is also taxed with no representation.

    The viewing figures are at least a relief. 5m watching the right wings alternative YouTube live stream show vs 125m watching the actual show.
