Nicky Jam told his 43 million followers on Instagram that he is withdrawing his endorsement of Donald Trump because he can’t look past the Trump campaign’s disrespect towards Puerto Rico.
Said Jam: “I never in my life thought a month later a comedian would criticize my country and speak poorly of my country so for that reason, I renounce any support of Donald Trump, and I will throw myself to the sideline of anything political. Puerto Rico deserves respect.”
