Nicki Minaj made headlines for her mere presence at AmFest alongside Erika Kirk. And now she’s set to make a multitude more thanks to her comments about President Donald Trump.
In recent months, the femcee has sprinkled praise on the political polarizer.
Now, though, she’s being much more direct – professing her “respect and admiration” for Trump and his administration.
Full story below…
Sitting alongside Erika, who has been appointed the leader of the right-wing entity Turning Point USA in the wake of husband Charlie Kirk‘s assassination, Minaj was quizzed about Trump.
And she didn’t hold back.
She gushed:
“I have the utmost respect and admiration for our President. I don’t know if he even knows this, but he has given so many people hope that there’s a chance to beat the bad guys and to win […] He’s from Queens, New York, like me. What it has shown me, personally, is sometimes, even at the worst feeling time in your life, you think that you’re never going to come back from it – but you do. Our President shows that, he’s been through every single thing publicly and having to be constantly lied on.”
Continuing, Minaj added:
“This administration is full of people with heart and soul, and they make me proud of them. I love both [President Trump and VP JD Vance]. They’re both powerful men, smart, strong, but both have a very uncanny ability to be someone you can relate to. I can relate to them. I know they’re one of us.”

QUEEN
K I’m unsubscribing from pop culture, this s*** is getting ridiculous at this point
They ARE like u: p*** protectors!
Here’s the REAL tea: Prez pardoned Andrew Taake for attacking U.S. Capitol police in 2021 unknowingly pardoning the 37-year-old’s 2016 pdf crime! Minaj must’ve heard. Here we are.
I get she wants her hubby able to hug his son and take him to the park in all 50 states without police sirens or social media ridicule, but out-the-blue pandering to an admin. that would’ve banned/ deported her or her family is 👀-ful.
Google says: No. A presidential pardon does NOT expunge or erase a criminal record.
😂 oooh Covicki. Who are you gonna run to once the MAGAtards turn from kissing your ass to hating on you for being a pill popping c0k3 h0? Can’t wait to see it
“ There’s a chance to beat the bad guys“.. “He’s from Queens, New York, like me”
