Donald Trump at his latest rally reportedly made a slip-up that’s being labeled as “embarrassing.”
Trump at his event on Friday accepted the endorsement of a singer named “Nicky Jam,” but the moment didn’t go smoothly, according to a report from Billboard.
“Nicky Jam is officially endorsing Donald Trump in the 2024 U.S. presidential election,” the report states. “On Friday (Sept. 13), the former president held a campaign rally at the World Market Center in downtown Las Vegas, where the 43-year-old reggaetón veteran took the stage to show his support for Trump as he faces off against Vice President Kamala Harris in the November election.”
“In an embarrassing faux pas, however, the ex-POTUS mistakenly referred to Nicky as a ‘she’ when introducing him to the crowd for his endorsement speech.”
“Do you know Nicky? She’s hot. Where’s Nicky?” Trump can be heard saying on a video of the campaign event. As the male singer approaches the stage, Trump then says, “Oh, look, I’m glad he came up.”
“Nicky, wearing a black sweatshirt and the Trump campaign’s signature red ‘Make America Great Again’ baseball cap, then took the stage to deliver a brief statement,” according to Billboard’s report.
The moment was also flagged by Forbes.
Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign mocked the former president and even posted a video of the flub on social media.
“Trump: Latin music superstar Nicky Jam. Do you know Nicky? She’s hot (Nicky Jam is a man),” the campaign wrote.
Artist Art Candee wrote, “Guess Donald Trump doesn’t know what a woman is…”
