A notable endorsement from Puerto Rico's shadow senator, Zoraida Buxo, has emerged in support of former President Donald Trump, even amid controversy stemming from a joke made at a recent rally.
During a rally in Allentown, Pennsylvania, Buxo, one of the two shadow senators representing Puerto Rico, took a strong stand for Trump, emphasizing the need for change in leadership.
Her endorsement comes in the wake of backlash over comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's joke referring to Puerto Rico as a "floating island of garbage" during a Trump rally.
Despite the media frenzy surrounding the joke, Buxo called for unity and resilience, stating that Puerto Ricans are part of the American fabric and that they will play a crucial role in the upcoming election.
"The Biden-Harris administration has consistently failed on vital issues," Buxo asserted, pointing to problems in border security, the economy, and law enforcement.
She reminded voters of their power at the polls, stating, "Your vote is the most powerful tool you have to bring about change."
Buxo's remarks encapsulated a common sentiment among many conservatives who find themselves frustrated with the current administration's handling of critical policies.
In a direct appeal to Latino voters, she declared, "We need the leadership of Donald J. Trump as our Commander-in-Chief."
Buxo's endorsement reinforces Trump's appeal among Hispanic voters, countering narratives pushed by some media outlets.
As the election draws near, the emphasis on community and shared values continues to resonate on the campaign trail.
Buxo concluded her speech with a passionate call to action, urging her constituents to stand firm and support Trump in the fight for a "better future" for all Americans.
