The time when Nicki Minaj swallowed, “Like a daughter of the isles, Donald Trump wants me to come home.” In 2016 in Black barbieshe prayed that her “strangers should not be expelled.” Without forgetting his long message in his social networks two years later to talk about her story: “I arrived in this country as an illegal immigrant at the age of 5. I can’t imagine the horror of being in a foreign country and being separated from your parents at the age of 5. It’s terrible.”
But that was before… Today, the Trinidad and Tobago native appears with the Trump administration and a whole bunch of Republicans like Erika Kirk, the widow of Charlie Kirk. On stage at AmericaFest, an annual pro-Trump event, Nicki Minaj even loudly proclaimed her “greatest respect and admiration for our president,” calling the American and his vice president JD Vance role models for young people and that together they were “the pride of being American.”
Jacket return
This reversal of belief is surprising. From the beginning of her career, the rapper saw herself as a strong advocate for immigrants, women and the LGBTQ+ cause, causes far removed from those championed by the current president’s followers. To say, in 2020 Nicki Minaj did not support her new friend Trump, she published after the victory of Joe Bidena photo of Kamala Harris captioned: “We did it, Joe!” “.
But we cannot say that the singer has always been an ardent democrat. His opinion on politics is very variable. For example, she advocated the desired reform in the health system Barack Obama. “It must be a divine right!” Even with the concerns of Obama, who is already very involved,” she declared in X. However, she was very critical of his politics and had already said so, in her title Mercy in a duet with Lil Wayne: “I’m a Republican and I vote for Mitt Romney. »
Conspiracy and transphobia
If in the past Nicki Minaj’s political choices were changeable, it seems that for several years her loyalty to the Republicans has been decided. Since the Covid-19 pandemic, the singer has turned into a conspiracy. Therefore she is convinced that her cousin’s friend has become impotent because of the vaccine… Very sensitive on religious issues, she publicly thanked Trump for highlighting the alleged violence against Christians in Niger. Even leading him to cooperate with the Republican administration to highlight the subject.it.
Therefore, there are many common points between Donald Trump and the rapper: anti-vax, conspiracy theorists but also transphobic. Nicki Minaj very often attacks Gavin Newsom, the Democratic governor of California, candidate to succeed Donald Trump and especially pro-trans. The singer slammed the man after he claimed he was “the governor who made (the) most pro-trans laws” and that he hoped to “see trans kids.” “Imagine being the guy running for office because he wants to see transgender kids. Haha. (…) Normal adults wake up and want to see healthy, safe, happy kids,” the superstar said on stage at AmericaFest.
The Notre Donald Trump dossier
Today some of his fans, often young and from the LGBTQ+ or immigrant communities, feel betrayed. Others hail his “freedom of thought” and subscribe en masse to his X account to follow his escapades. For her part, Nicki Minaj acknowledges the unexpected radicality of her words: “It’s okay to change your mind,” she said on stage.
