Celebrity endorsements have been a staple of Kamala Harris campaign for president, but U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio says they didn’t move the “Hispanic vote.”

“Every expert in the world said, well, there’s no way, Donald Trump it can even be competitive because The bad bunny does not support him and Jennifer Lopez and George Lopez“, the senator continued CNNreferring to three entertainers who have prominently endorsed the Democratic presidential candidate.

Trump won Miami-Dade County as well as Hidalgo County in Texas, two Latin cities. And his earnings went beyond the states he wore. According to Axios, the president-elect exceeded expectations in Central California, suggesting Trump’s “realignment” is coast-to-coast.

Rubio pointed out that many “migrants” were “criminals” and because they often go to Hispanic neighborhoods, the presence of illegal immigrants places a massive burden on those who came to the country the right way.

“They’re very concerned about the cost of living, the cost of food, and Donald Trump has appealed to Americans as Americans, regardless of your background or your habits or what music you listen to or how your last name is pronounced,” Rubio said.

The senator made similar points during an interview with NBC’s “Today.”

“I think the lesson here is that the primary identity of Americans is American,” Rubio said.

He added that whether “you’re of Hispanic descent or African-American descent or any other background,” Americans are concerned about “the price of gas, the price of food, the fear of uncertainty and not being safe in their own community because people have come into . the country illegally and they happen to be criminals in their home countries before they come and then they come here and commit crimes as well.”

“These are things that Donald Trump campaigned on,” Rubio said. “And his main message was, ‘I will put the interests of Americans in America before anything else.’ And I think that’s a message that resonated in a way that led to this very diverse coalition.”
