Nicky Jam Retracts Donald Trump Endorsement, Says He’s ‘Stepping Away’ From Politics: ‘Puerto Rico Deserves Respect’
Puerto Rican artist Nicky Jam retracts his endorsement for Donald Trump as president following the racist remarks made about Latinos at a rally.
In a video uploaded to Jam’s Instagram, the reggaeton star is seen sitting in a luxury car as he explains he no longer supports Trump following the racist remarks made by Tony Hinchcliffe about Puerto Rico and Latinos during a rally over the weekend. Hinchcliffe, who appeared as a speaker for a Trump rally in New York’s Madison Square Garden on Oct. 27, made derogatory comments about Latinos and their children. The starkly racist comments stirred outrage among prominent Puerto Ricans and many others in media and entertainment including Bad Bunny, Don Omar, Jennifer Lopez and Ricky Martin, among others.
