Bad Bunny and Jennifer Lopez have publicly supported Vice President Kamala Harris on Instagram. They shared the Harris-Walz campaign’s plan for the Puerto Rican people.
In the video, Harris says, “I will never forget what Donald Trump did, and what he did not do, when Puerto Rico needed a caring and a competent leader. He abandoned the island, tried to block aid after back-to-back devastating hurricanes and offered nothing more than paper towels and insults.”
I don’t think people realize just how badly that racist „joke“ about Puerto Rico is landing with Puerto Ricans. We’re a proud people and it’s causing every major Puerto Rican with a platform to endorse Kamala.

The endorsements from Bunny and Lopez come as former president Donald Trump held a MAGA rally at Madison Square Garden, which had its fair share of racist moments. Let’s break them down.
Opening the event, the Trump campaign introduced comedian Tony Hinchcliffe to the crowd, who lashed out at the Latino community. One of the wild jokes was, “They love making babies. They do. They do. There’s no pulling out. They don’t do that. They come inside, just like they did to our country.”
Then he just spoke against Puerto Rico as a whole: “There is literally a floating pile of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”

But wait, he came for Black people too suggesting they carve watermelons instead of pumpkins on Halloween.

If that’s not enough, the following speakers also had wild moments. For instance, speaker David Rem held a cross in the air and called Vice President Kamala Harris the “antichrist.” Then another, SId Rosenberg, stood ten toes down in referencing immigrants as “fucking illegals.”

The rally and it’s rhetoric arrived on the same day the Harris-Walz campaign highlighted their plan to aide the Puerto Rican population.
