After Republicans lost ground in the midterm elections, rapper Nicki Minaj posted a 15-point message on X, Rolling Stone reports. She wrote, “Trump is STILL your PRESIDENT,” and added, “Maybe now our people will WAKE UP.”
Minaj had spent much of the previous several months supporting Donald Trump and Republicans, appearing at White House events and campaigning alongside Trump ahead of the midterms.
She congratulated Republican Anna Paulina Luna on winning Florida’s 13th Congressional District race and Byron Donalds on winning the state’s governor’s race. The Associated Press had not called Luna’s race at the time of publication.
Other candidates Minaj endorsed lost. In Michigan, Mike Rogers lost the Senate race to Abdul El-Sayed, while John James lost the governor’s race to Jocelyn Benson. In New York, gubernatorial candidate Bruce Blakeman lost to incumbent Kathy Hochul.
In another post on X, Minaj noted that Elon Musk was still a trillionaire while users continued posting on his app. She also praised Musk’s Grok chatbot, calling it a “phenomenal product” that had significantly improved her life.
Rolling Stone also reported that Minaj’s former lawyers returned to court with claims that she had not paid a legal bill stemming from a copyright lawsuit. The amount is expected to exceed $300,000.
