"WHAT THE F**K! (VOTE For TRUMP) IM OUT," of an Instagram post.
"F**K NEW YORK The KNICKS never win anyway. I don't care Trump doesn't like black people 62% are you out of ya f**king mind," he added.
He later added on Twitter that he doesn't want to become "20 cent."
Handler, a regular Trump critic, was not happy about Jackson's decision.
Upon hearing about his claims, Handler tweeted that he is "no longer her favorite ex-boyfriend."
She later made an appearance on "The Tonight Show" where she discussed Jackson's endorsement with Jimmy Fallon.
"You heard about my ex-boyfriend, right? Handler asked.
"He says he doesn't want to pay 62% in taxes -- which, by the way, isn't a plan of Joe Biden's, that's a lie -- so he doesn't want to pay 62% in taxes because he doesn't want to go from being 50 Cent to 20 cent."
An of Biden's tax plan showed the Democratic candidate's administration would only raise taxes on people who make over $400,000 a year.
During her Tonight Show appearance, Handler added that and he "can't" vote for Trump.
She also said she would be willing to "seal the deal in more ways than one" if Jackson would revoke his Trump endorsement.
"I might be willing to go for another spin if you know what I'm talking about," she added.
Jackson shared the clip of Handler's appearance to his Twitter on Saturday, and gave Handler what she asked for as well.
"Another spin" he wrote. "F**k Donald Trump, I never liked him. for all I know he had me set up and had my friend Angel Fernandez killed but that’s history. LOL."
