More: Rock appeared to mime his way through his performance of 1999 hit "Bawitdaba", clips of which are being mocked on social media. A pre-recorded version of the song could be heard playing as the musician lowered his microphone away from his mouth. In other moments of the song, his mouth does not match the audio.

"Kid Rock is blatantly lip syncing, it's all prerecorded & he wasn't even trying," one person wrote on X-Twitter, with another adding: "Kid Rock forgets his lyrics during his song showing all the MAGA Far Right that he wasn't even singing. What a complete and utter embarrassment."

An additional person wrote: "Kid Rock couldn't even be bothered to sing live. Instead, some truly awful lip-syncing."

This is entirely on brand for MAGA.

Tacky, fake patriotism wrapped in poor theatrics meant to be as cheap as possible while charging as much as possible.
