Reggaeton star Nicky Jam walked back his previous endorsement of former President Trump Wednesday in the wake of fallout over a poorly received joke at Trump\u2019s Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In an Instagram post in Spanish, the singer born Nick Rivera Caminero explained he had endorsed Trump for his economic proposals, with \u201c[Trump] being a businessman, I thought it was the best move.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNever in my life did I think that a month later a comedian would come to criticize my country, to speak poorly of my country, and therefore I renounce any support to Donald Trump and move aside from any political situation. Puerto Rico se respeta<\/em>, Nicky Jam,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n At a Tuesday rally in Allentown, Pa., the northern end of the Latino Corridor, Trump did not directly address the offending joke, but he said \u201cnobody loves our Latino community and our Puerto Rican community more than I do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n According to Toledo, the dissatisfaction with the handling of the joke has spread well beyond the Puerto Rican community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis is not just a Puerto Rican issue. All Latinos across the board have taken offense to this,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Speaking on a call with Voto Latino, Biden appeared to call Trump supporters \u201cgarbage\u201d in response to Hinchcliffe\u2019s joke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
