Donald Trump's got his pronouns all mixed up ... getting onstage during a rally and calling Latin singer Nicky Jam a "hot" woman -- and, looking a bit surprised to find he's actually a dude!

The 45th POTUS had a rally in Las Vegas Friday night ... and he introduced Nicky to the crowd -- asking fans if they know Nicky and adding "she's hot."

Trump then asks where Nicky's at ... and, watch the video -- once he catches a glimpse of NJ, he looks a bit surprised to see a guy walking toward him.

Bill Maher did some speculating Friday night that sent Donald Trump's newest bestie into a rage ... the 'Real Time' host says he has a hunch Trump's banging her.

The 'Real Time' host said Donald Trump may be old, but he's a dog always in search of women, and Bill said there are breadcrumbs of evidence leading him to Laura Loomer -- as he says, she's 31 and Trump's "type."

Well, B.M. noted she's been like white on rice with Trump recently, which then raised a question for him ... "Who's Trump f***ing? Because I said, 'it's not nobody.' He's been a dog for too long. And it's not Melania. I think we may have our answer this week."

A viral pic of a man lugging around 2 geese in Ohio is blowing up after Donald Trump’s bizarre pet-munching Haitian immigrant claims ... but we're told the photo’s just being twisted to fit the former prez's narrative, and what's actually going on is far less dramatic.

The Ohio Division of Wildlife tells TMZ the real deal behind the viral pic -- the guy was actually picking up 2 geese that were hit in a Columbus car accident. And by the way, that's 45 minutes from Springfield, where Trump's wild claims supposedly took place.

The wildlife org clarified to us you usually need a statement or receipt from the county sheriff or wildlife officer to claim an animal carcass. But the Franklin County Wildlife Office tells TMZ that for geese, you don’t always need a receipt ... so the guy was totally in the clear to have them.

People who hate on mail-in ballots are going to be howling at the moon after this one ... 'cause a couple astronauts are casting their votes from the International Space Station.

Barry "Butch" Wilmore and Sunita Williams -- the 2 astronauts who went up to space on the Boeing Starliner, and who are now stuck after safety concerns with their craft arose -- spoke with reporters Friday ... and, they say they still plan on voting.

Wilmore says he sent his request for a ballot down to Earth Friday ... adding that NASA helps all its astronauts secure ballots. Both astronauts touched on how they feel it's their civic duty to cast their votes come the first Tuesday in November.

Springfield, Ohio's mayor says Donald Trump's wrong about Haitian immigrants eating people's dogs and cats there ... but he says the influx of migrants is causing real problems.

Mayor Rob Rue tells TMZ ... the arrival of 20,000 Haitian immigrants in the past few years in a town of 58,000 is straining infrastructure and causing a culture clash ... namely, an uptick in bad drivers and deadly car accidents.

The town's mayor says residents' pets are safe, but Springfield is seeing an increase in reckless driving incidents ... which Rue attributes to more Haitian immigrants behind the wheel.

Taylor Swift's support of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election has cost her the support of at least one fan ... who's calling out T-Swift's faith.

A video's going viral online featuring a woman who says she has 3 tickets to a Taylor Swift concert in Toronto, taking place in November ... a gift for her daughter's 13th birthday.

But she says she's pissed about Taylor's endorsement of Kamala Harris ... saying Taylor posted it so soon after the debate, she thinks Swift didn't actually keep an open mind going into Tuesday night's Harris v Trump showdown.

"RuPaul's Drag Race" star Sasha Colby is issuing a stern warning to voters ahead of the November election ... saying a Trump victory is a threat to basic human rights.

We caught up with the famed drag queen, who was the first transgender woman to present at MTV's VMAs in the show's 30 year history, at LAX, who voiced concerns about Donald Trump after Tuesday night's debate.

As Sasha put it ... the former prez's rhetoric is dangerous -- "weaponizing ignorant minds" -- and she takes issue with his unsubstantiated claims about the LGBTQ+ community.

John Legend is sticking up for his hometown, Springfield, Ohio ... urging locals to welcome Haitian immigrants after Donald Trump's wild claim that they were eating local pets -- but it seems his calls for unity have largely fallen on deaf ears.

In an IG vid, the singer -- a die-hard Democrat -- insisted no one in Springfield was eating cats or dogs. He also pointed out the city has seen an influx of jobs under President Joe Biden’s administration, after years of people leaving town to find work elsewhere.

He noted the Haitians who arrived did so legally to fill local jobs, and while he acknowledged the town's 25% population increase has brought growing pains -- like adapting to new language, culture, and dietary preferences -- he urged the community to be more understanding.

Donald Trump now has geese on the brain after promoting his conspiracy theory Haitian migrants are eating pet animals in Ohio.

The Republican presidential nominee spoke onstage at his Arizona rally Thursday night -- and made some eye-opening comments about geese, days after falsely claiming Haitians were chowing down on cats and dogs in Springfield, OH.

Trump said, “They’re taking the geese. You know where the geese are? In the park. In the lake. And even walking off with their pets ... These people are the worst.”

Donald Trump pushing a wild conspiracy theory about Haitian immigrants eating Americans' cats and dogs in an Ohio town has prompted folks to flood the local police force with inquiries ... to the point where the cops are having trouble investigating actual crimes.

Police in Springfield, OH tell TMZ ... the department is getting double the amount of daily calls -- which was already in the hundreds! -- from concerned citizens across the country, all asking the same thing ... are immigrants really eating people's pets?!?

Cops say the increased call volume started after Trump pushed the debunked conspiracy about Haitians in Tuesday night's debate against Kamala Harris ... when he said immigrants were eating cats and dogs in the city, which he called out specifically.

Donald Trump's week has taken a turn for the better after Tuesday's presidential debate ... the former prez is no longer facing 2 of the charges in the Georgia election subversion case.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee tossed out 2 criminal counts against 45 in the case on Thursday.

The ruling -- which hasn't been formally applied to Trump yet because his case has been paused pending appeals -- means DT will no longer face trial for one count of conspiring to file false documents and one count of filing false documents.

Donald Trump says there will not be a debate round 3 against Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris.

DJT says he's the clear winner against "Comrade Kamala Harris" ... saying polls show he won.

Backstreet Boys' AJ McLean is all for celebs diving into politics -- a hot topic seeing as how Taylor Swift’s recent endorsement of Kamala Harris has made quite a powerful impact.

We caught up with the singer at LAX ... and he tells us he believes everyone, including big-name stars, has a right to their own opinion, especially if they use their platform for good, and have a positive message.

He admits he's not one to make grand political statements, but he's not shy about who he's backing -- check out the video to see who’s got his vote!

Wyclef Jean is not amused by Donald Trump's bizarre debate tangent about Haitian immigrants supposedly eating household pets -- and tells TMZ Hip Hop that America needs to strictly focus on the facts this election!!!

Wyclef says, "I will be forever grateful for my family’s life, for having a fair chance to live what is called the 'American Dream.'"

"One of our greatest assets in America is that we are a country of immigrants," Clef says. "I speak from the heart when I say, Haitian people living in the U.S. are good neighbors and good people. We care about humanity. We care about our neighbors."

President Biden and a Donald Trump supporter teased each other before POTUS put on a red MAGA hat ... and there were jokes about Biden's age and Trump's conspiracy theories.

New video from the President's viral moment Wednesday in Pennsylvania shows the build-up to Biden briefly donning a Trump 2024 cap ... and there's lots of playful banter between Biden and a local man.

Biden presents the man with one of his own hats adorned with the presidential seal, and the guy asks POTUS to autograph the hat ... joking, "You remember your name?"

JoJo Siwa has nothing but respect for Taylor Swift after she decided to publicly endorse Kamala Harris for president ... but she isn't ready to follow in her footsteps.

As she put it ... "The Swifties rule the world at this point."
