He added, “What is the problem? Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years, so if we aren’t happy… then who is to blame?”

Check out what Yahoo News reported:
YouTuber-turned-professional boxer Jake Paul has publicly endorsed Donald Trump for the 2024 presidential election.
ADVERTISEMENTIn a 20-minute video posted to his social media accounts on Thursday (October 31), the 27-year-old influencer shared that while he rescinded his right to vote after moving to Puerto Rico in pursuit of becoming a boxing world champion, “that doesn’t mean I can’t present my 80 million large audience with proper facts, numbers and data to encourage them to vote in the proper direction to quite literally save America.”
Before launching into his arguments, Paul began by condemning comedian Tony Hinchcliffe for his recent joke in which he called the Caribbean island “floating garbage” at Trump’s October 27 New York City rally.
“Obviously he’s doing his job, trying to be funny, but him talking smack about Puerto Rico was not funny,” he said, going on to claim: “These aren’t Donald Trump’s views; it was a comedian who made a bad joke.”
He continued by listing the “number of problems America is facing,” including “wars, health, guns, jobs, economy, inflation, border control, freedom of speech.”
“I think we can all agree that things just don’t feel right; America doesn’t feel good. It shows that we are more divided than ever, and I can’t just sit back and watch this blasphemy unfold in front of me any longer,” Paul said.
“What is the problem? Democrats have been in power for 12 of the last 16 years, so if we aren’t happy… then who is to blame?”

Here’s what USA Today reported:
Controversial Youtuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul encouraged his audience of 80 million to vote for Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump Thursday morning, even though Paul won’t be casting a ballot for the former president himself.
“Please, for the love of God, go, exercise your right to vote on my behalf and vote for Donald Trump in this election,” Paul said in the 18-minute-long video. “America depends on it.”
ADVERTISEMENTThe 27-year-old moved to Puerto Rico to pursue his career in professional boxing career in 2021, and therefore cannot vote in presidential elections.
Paul, a long-time Trump supporter, told his subscribers on YouTube and 4.6 million followers on X that the offensive “floating island of garbage” comment made by Trump rally speaker and comedian Tony Hinchcliffe on Sunday was not a representation of how the former president feels about the U.S. territory.
