Rapper Pitbull Dubs Donald Trump's Presidential Campaign 'A Joke'

Pitbull showed no love for Donald Trump on Friday when asked if he was backing the presumptive GOP presidential candidate.

I think the (Trump) campaign is a joke to be honest with you , the Cuban-American rapper said while being honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles.

I think that its unfortunate the way were being viewed around the world due to some peoples approaches, he added.

His comments came following a recent Vanity Fair article in which the music star talked about a previous meeting with Trump.

I like to sit down with people and see what theyve got going on , and if theres anybody thats fallen down and got back up... with all the bankruptcies hes been throughwell, you have to respect certain things about him, he was quoted as saying.

Some readers took that to mean Pitbull might be backing Trump despite the rapper previously saying he wouldnt be able to stay at the businessmans hotels following his incendiary comments about Mexican immigrants.

But on Friday the 35-year-old, real name Armando Christian Prez, further made it crystal clear that he wont be endorsing The Donald for office. Am I supporting Donald Trump? he said. No, I am not supporting Donald Trump. You all know this already very well.
