Colorado Governor Jared Polis is getting blasted for a Christmas message he shared to X in which he sings an acapella rendition of Puerto Rican singer-songwriter José Feliciano’s hit 1970 song on Feliz Navidad.
The lawmaker posted the video for his social media followers under his official Spanish X account.
Reactions curated by Newsmax:
“Pander harder; your legal constituents hate you,” the Steak for Breakfast posted on X in reply to Polis’ holiday video.
“It’s cultural appropriation to pander in this manner,” X user Mstrchrle wrote.
Other users also criticized the openly gay 48-year-old governor.
“I know certain drugs are legal in Colorado. Perhaps this explains this behavior. Lol,” Lowkey Rey 2.0 posted.
“No wonder why Colorado is going down the tubes So sad for such beautiful state,” Chef Eric Bonillo wrote.
“I didn’t need a reminder of why I left that state, but it’s still nice to know I did the right thing,” WyGuy posted.
“As cringe as this is, it doesn’t begin to compare to the damage you’ve done to this state,” Kill The Question wrote.
