At President Trump’s recent (massive) Pennsylvania rally, two huge Latin American “musical legends” showed up to endorse President Trump: Anuel AA and Justin Quiles.
You might not recognize those names if you’re not into Puerto Rican culture and music, but trust me a LOT of people know them.
Anuel AA is one of the top artists in Puerto Rico, and Behizy on Twitter describes him as one of the most influential people in Latino culture:
I don’t think people understand the magnitude of this… Anuel AA is one of the most influential people in Latino culture. His endorsement of Trump is HISTORIC
“The best president the world and this country has seen, his name is President Trump” 🔥

You might think a Puerto Rican star wouldn’t have much relevance in Pennsylvania, but you’d actually be wrong. Quite wrong.
There are nearly 500,000 Puerto Ricans living in PA!
Check this out:
President Trump himself referred to the duo as “two amazing Puerto Rican musical legends.”
The two stars approached the podium wearing their MAGA hats and shook hands with Trump.
This man’s songs have 18 billion views, think that will carry some influence?
His songs have over 18 BILLION VIEWS and he has multiple music videos with over 1 billion

“Thank you, Mr. President, for having us here. For me, it’s a real blessing to be here. I’m from Puerto Rico. Since Trump hasn’t been around, it’s not a secret—we’ve been going through a lot as a country,” said Anuel.
Anuel mentioned the false promises that came from Biden and contrasted that with Trump’s administration.
“Biden always promised, promised,” Anuel continued. “A lot of politicians promised through the years. All of us know … the best president the world has seen, this country has ever seen, his name is President Trump. So, all my Puerto Ricans, let’s stay united. Let’s vote for Trump. I personally spoke with him, he wants to help Puerto Rico grow and succeed as a country. He wants to keep helping Latinos in the U.S. Let’s keep doing things the right way and let’s make America great again.”
Quiles also shared a heartfelt rallying cry with his fellow Latino voters.
Yahoo! News shares:
Then Quiles took the podium and added, reading from a sheet of paper: “I’ll also say a few words. Mr. President, I’m beyond honored. Mr. President, above all, I like you because, I’ve always said this, you’re not a puppet. I back you because I feel you’re the most honest president we ever had. That’s true!,” Quiles said, looking up at the now more energized crowd as Trump smiled behind him. “Saying things how they are, not what you think people want to hear, and that’s very important. A lot of Latinos, we stand strong next to President Trump. Thank you for sharing back there how important building Puerto Rico up again is, and not just Puerto Rico — let’s make America great again!”
ADVERTISEMENTQuiles and Anuel then shook Trump’s hand again and walked out to cheers, as Trump reclaimed the podium and said, “Wow, that’s great.”
Latin artists have been largely muted during the U.S. presidential campaign, and no major Latin artist had shown up at any rally until Friday night. Anuel and Quiles’ endorsement of Trump is the most prominent endorsement of the Republican candidate so far. Prior to the rally, Anuel and Quiles both posted videos to their respective Instagram stories of Trump’s campaign plane. Quiles also posted a photo of a white baseball cap emblazoned with the words “Make Puerto Rico great again.”
Idk if you all realize how big this is. Anuel AA a Puerto Rican rapper, singer, pioneer, with a huge influence on Latin culture just endorsed Donald J Trump. Here he is telling his 38 million Instagram followers to vote Trump.

You can hear the speeches here, in this video from Forbes:
As a Trump voter from Puerto Rico now living on the mainland, I can’t stress enough how significant the recent endorsements are. They will definitely sway voters in Pennsylvania and boost Trump’s support on the East Coast. Young Puerto Rican voters are often influenced by artists…

The media will try and tell you Kamala Harris will get the minority vote in November, but in reality President Trump boasts strong support!
We might just see a massive surprise at the ballot box.
As usual, the reality out there in America is often 180 degrees from whatever narrative the MSM is trying to sell you, and you just saw that demonstrated again last night in PA.
