Miami rapper Lil Pump, who has recently voiced his support for Donald Trump, was mistakenly addressed as “Little Pimp” by the president at a campaign rally in Grand Rapids, Mich., on Monday night.

Shortly after sharing some positive words about longtime conservative musician Ted Nugent, who had performed at the rally, the president called Lil Pump to the podium. “Speaking of sounds, music, and other things… One of the big superstars of the world… Little Pimp. There he is. How is it going? You wanna come up and say something? Come on, Little Pump. Does everyone know who he is?”


Lil Pump, 20, approached the podium donning a red MAGA hat. “Mr. President, I appreciate everything you’ve done for our country,” said Lil Pump. “You brought the troops home and you’re doing the right thing. MAGA ’20, ’20, ’20. Don’t forget that! And do not vote for Sleepy Joe, at all!”

“Big star!” said Trump.
