Jennifer Lopez responds to Puerto Rico’s garbage comments during Kamala Harris rally
Lopez criticized the Trump campaign for negative comments made against Puerto Rico at his recent New York City rally.
Jennifer Lopez is speaking out for Puerto Ricans.
On Thursday, Oct.31, the Atlas star endorsed Kamala Harris at her campaign rally in Las Vegas, and criticized the Trump campaign for the racially charged jokes made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, Oct. 27.
“At Madison Square Garden, he reminded us who he really is and how he really feels,” Lopez, 55, said of Trump during her speech.
“It wasn’t just Puerto Ricans who were offended that day, okay? It was every Latino in this country, it was humanity and anyone of decent character.”
The singer and actress — whose parents Guadalupe “Lupe” Rodríguez and David Lopez were both born in Puerto Rico — added that Trump had “consistently worked to divide us,”
before reiterating that she believed in the “power of Latinos” and “the power of all our votes.”
Lopez’s comments come after Hinchcliffe called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage” at Donald Trump’s New York City rally.
