Cardi B didn’t hold back this past weekend, unleashing a fiery rant on Instagram Live about Donald Trump and, more specifically, about the “poor people” who supported him in the recent election. The Grammy-winning artist argued passionately that Trump’s policies and rhetoric never truly benefited those struggling financially.
Trump’s Promises vs. Reality
“Donald Trump was never for y’all poor motherf*ckers,” Cardi declared, extending her criticism to include all demographics of lower-income individuals. She emphasized that Trump’s focus wasn’t on improving the lives of the poor, whether they be white, Black, Hispanic, Asian, or Indian. She even included millionaires like herself in his apparent lack of concern.
The rapper also took aim at Trump’s stance on immigration, pointing out the irony of him blaming immigrants for economic issues while simultaneously deporting them. “So, now the immigrants are deported, who are we blaming for the fact that we are practically going into a recession? We don’t even have food stamps?” she questioned, highlighting the perceived disconnect in his policies.
A Familiar Political Voice
Cardi B referenced her previous viral moment where she mispronounced Trump’s name, suggesting it was part of her broader effort to warn people about the Trump administration. “This are the type of things I was trying to tell y’all about… But all y’all cared about was me saying ‘Shrump,’” she recalled.
This political commentary comes after Cardi B released her highly anticipated sophomore album, “Am I The Drama?” The artist has been a vocal supporter of Kamala Harris, having previously endorsed her and even speaking at campaign rallies. Her political engagement reflects a broader trend of celebrities using their platforms to influence public discourse.
