Reggaeton stars Anuel AA and Justin Quiles revealed their support for Donald Trump on Friday, publicly endorsing the former Republican president at a rally in Pennsylvania.
Anuel, who is Puerto Rican, and Justin, born in Connecticut but raised in Puerto Rico, met Trump upon his arrival in Johnstown, greeting him with a handshake and a brief conversation before attending the rally for the Republican presidential candidate.
"Everyone knows it. The world knows it. Everyone has experienced it. The best president the world has ever seen, that the country has ever seen. His name is President Trump," Anuel AA declared on stage.
Wearing a red cap with the phrase "Make America Great Again," Anuel disclosed that he had spoken with Trump, who expressed his intention to help Puerto Rico "grow and succeed as a nation."
"Puerto Ricans, let's stand firm and united, let's vote for Trump. We must all remember that all he wants is to continue helping Latinos in the United States," he urged.
Additionally, Anuel criticized President Joe Biden, stating that Puerto Rico "has been through a lot" since Trump left office, and claimed that Biden "promises and promises but does nothing."
Justin Quiles, for his part, voiced his support for Trump, stating: "I support you because I feel you are the most honest president we have had. It's true, you say things as they are, not what you think people want to hear. And that is very important."
Quiles, donning a cap with the phrase "Make Puerto Rico Great Again," praised Trump as "the most honest president we have had" and emphasized his candor: "You say things as they are, not what you think people want to hear. And that is very important," he reiterated.
