Trump: “Well, we love it. I know it very well. And we help you through a lot of bad storms. I’ll tell you, we had some really bad ones. You remember you were there when I brought the hospital ship against everyone’s advice and we got it in there and took care of a lot of people.”

“But I think no president’s done more for Puerto Rico than I have.”
 

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.”
 
So . . . the story of the last week. Kamala's lead looked to be ebbing. The GOP was getting some good poll numbers and turnout data. Democrats were worried. But we didn't know who we had in reserve. And we still don't, at least not their legal names (for some of us, lol).

Because, now, the cavalry has arrived. Nicky Jam and Bad Bunny are on it. These two people are now among the kingmakers of the election, along with a couple of celebs who go by their actual names -- or at least names that sound like names. It's like when Manny Pacquaio played a decisive role in the Filipino elections, if he went by a name like BadMan P or something.

Notably, the bunny on Kamala's side is a bad bunny. This is potentially quite important, because being a bad bunny is a signal of virility, whereas neutral or good bunnies are for kids. He could have chosen another animal name that wouldn't have required a weird adjective, like pitbull. Well, that one was taken. But as far as I know, Wild Boar is still available. Well, Bad Bunny it is. Seems to have worked out for him, so wtf do I know.

And Nicky Jam, who is somebody I've never heard of possibly because I'm old. There's an irony here. Whereas Bad Bunny had to mess around a bit to find a stage name not already taken, Nicky Jam goes by a name that has almost certainly been taken dozens of times. Fortunately for Nicky, none of them became stars. But now Nicky Jam has had an epiphany. Or he listened to his publicist. Probably the latter, given that his previous political views do not mark him as someone particularly susceptible to epiphanies. Anyway, now we got Jam and Bunny on the case.

You know who would be great? The Wolf. We have him. Both of them, actually-- Winston, and Of Wall Street. We've got Swift, who twenty years later will possibly help Dems get revenge for John Kerry. We've got a big guy who claims to be little ("Turn Down For What") and a small woman who claims to be big (Arianna). They showed up to their big rally with a lawyer who has never won a case being given a sequined jacket and welcomed onto stage, but she can still call herself an attorney unlike the old honey-potted disbarred and disgraced vampire. We have Obama. They have Hulk Hogan, who has undoubtedly slipped a bit in old ago. Having trouble ripping off his shirt -- not a good sign for his continuing relevance. In fairness to Hulk, he still rips off his shirt more effectively than I've ever seen from Obama. We conceded the shirt-ripping demographic a while back.

But really, it's going to come down to Bad Bunny. Maybe we can create a cabinet post for him. Isn't Secretary Of Keeping It Real a thing? It was at one point. I guess Bad Bunny's department would be named in Spanish, which would be refreshing. We need more cabinet posts named in other languages. I'm not sure if one can be sworn into office as "Bad Bunny" but why the fuck not? Oaths of office are so 2012. So are FBI background checks, which apparently will go unused if Trump wins.

Nicky Jam is the rapper who appeared on stage with Trump at a rally last month, when Trump said, "And Nicky Jam is here. Where is SHE? Come up on stage Nicky."
