Reggaeton star Nicky Jam seems to be rolling backĀ his support forĀ Donald Trump after theĀ Republican nominee mistakenly introduced him as aĀ ā€œhotā€Ā woman at a Las Vegas rally over the weekend.

Jam initially made light of the gaffe in an Instagram postā€”its caption referred to himself, in Spanish, as a ā€œhot woman,ā€ accompanied by no fewer than 22 crying-laughing emojis. But, as of Sunday night, the post had been deleted. The comment section on his most recent post before it, which was unrelated to Trump, was also deactivated.

Jamā€™s Trump endorsement, amplified by the buzz surrounding the awkwardly inaccurate rally introduction, has made him the subject of relentless criticismā€”and mockeryā€”across the internet.

    But like, if you were running for president and about to speak to a crowd youā€™d probably low key phone half-pull and google the name and do the glance, right? Like ā€˜what city am I even inā€™ type shit, Trump is beyond dumb

      This dementia patient became notorious for failing to spell ā€œcoverageā€ way back when he still had the occasional good day. He isnā€™t searching around for a damn thing.

      Trump has addressed the wrong city during speeches a bunch of times. Wrong state a few times too, iirc
