In a scathing Instagram post, the singer officially came out in support of [Hillary Clinton](http://motto.time.com/4469139/hillary-clinton-vagenda/) by calling [Donald Trump](http://time.com/4475880/donald-trump-immigration-policy-questions/)‘s two sons, Donald Jr. and [Eric](http://motto.time.com/4397182/eric-trump-ivanka-vp/) a “p-ssy.” The photo, which shows the two brothers on a hunting trip Africa in 2012 holding a dead leopard, reemerged during Trump’s campaign after the contentious killing of [Cecil the lion](http://time.com/4069884/walter-palmer-dentist-cecil-lion-zimbabwe-not-charged/), _Huffington Post_ [reports](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/madonna-trump-son-instagram%5Fus%5F57c88623e4b0a22de0950332?section=&). Madonna posted this controversial photo with the caption “How Big of. P-ssy Do you have to BE to kill this Noble Animal for sport? Just ask Donald Trump Jr and his brother Eric. One more reason to vote for Hilary!” [According](http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/14/donald-trump-jr-eric-trump-hunting%5Fn%5F1344998.html) to the _Huffington Post_, Donald Jr. defended his rights as a hunter and, like his father, poised himself as a hero for his actions. He tweeted, “I can assure you it was not wasteful the villagers were so happy for the meat which they don’t often get to eat.” > [](https://twitter.com/DonaldJTrumpJr/status/179314248202194944) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4477431/madonna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons-hunting/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4477431/madonna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons-hunting/"},"headline":"Madonna Called Donald Trump's Sons the P-Word Then Endorsed Hillary Clinton","datePublished":"2016-09-02T14:48:01.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T09:03:17.630Z","description":"Express yourself, Madge","url":"https://time.com/4477431/madonna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons-hunting/","keywords":["motto"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt582d2d11bf9e5aec/6988a4aa428a9ed4a4cd41f5/madionna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt582d2d11bf9e5aec/6988a4aa428a9ed4a4cd41f5/madionna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"2016 Billboard Music Awards - Show","caption":"2016 Billboard Music Awards - Show","creditText":"JB Lacroix—WireImage/Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/motto/","name":"motto"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4477431/madonna-hillary-clinton-donald-trump-sons-hunting/","name":"Madonna Called Donald Trump's Sons the P-Word Then Endorsed Hillary Clinton"}}]}] ```
