You know the order of business. You hit the like, you hit the thumbs up because it affects the algorithm. More people become aware of our conversation and our channel here. We want everyone to be aware of that. Okay, so you guys have seen the thumbnail. So thank you for doing that. You guys have seen the thumbnail that we have up today, and it's Nicki Minaj. Are they the new couple? Like, what is going on? What is this love fest with Nicki Minaj and President Donald Trump?
Here's the thing. Nicki Minaj appeared alongside Donald Trump today. It was in Washington, D.C. It was part of a high-profile rollout for a new administration initiative. The initiative is known as Trump Accounts. It is a federally supported investment program aimed at children born between – 2025 and 2028, the event was held at the public summit designed to promote the program, which would provide qualifying newborns with the starter investment account funded with $1,000. The administration says that the accounts are intended to encourage long-term saving and financial literacy for families across the country. And so Minaj was there. She and Donald Trump met. They were on stage. They were chummy chummy.
Nicki Minaj also announced that she plans to contribute her own money to the program by helping fund Trump accounts for the children of some of her fans. OK, so you guys, as you know, Nicki Minaj has received some backlash for her comments regarding gay people, regarding black people, and at least her affiliation with MAGA is concerning to some African Americans. I want to bring in now Jason Lee. He's the founder and CEO of Hollywood Unlocked. Jason, good evening to you. Hi. Let's put up this picture of Donald Trump and Nicki Minaj. Jason, what is going on here? I mean, obviously, we know, you know, Donald Trump's affection to immigrants are only when he dates them or when they stick up for his bullshit.
I mean, Nicki Minaj, as we know, is not is an immigrant and she's she doesn't she's not an American and she's not facing deportation because her head is too far up the president's ass. I mean, this is something that is typical of Nicki. It's sad, though, that she is just selling out the culture, selling out her fans and selling out her brand for the price we don't know. But selling it out nonetheless for Donnie is just really embarrassing to watch. Yeah, well, here she is.
What happened when Nicki Minaj appeared with Donald Trump at the 'Trump Accounts' rollout?
This is one when Donald Trump brought her up on the stage. She's saying that she is Donald Trump's number one fan. Here it is.
Hello. Well, I don't know what to say, but I will say that I am probably the president's number one fan. And that's not going to change. And the hate or what people have to say, it does not affect me at all. It actually motivates me to support him more. And it's going to motivate all of us to support him more. We're not going to let them get away with bullying him and, you know, the smear campaigns. It's not going to work, okay? He has a lot of force behind him, and God is protecting him. Amen.
Jason, could you hear and see that? Yeah, I heard it. I mean, it's really sad when she's saying we're going to defend him or we're going to protect him. Who is the weird that she's talking about? I mean, just the fact that her wig had slipped and you can see her edges on this moment tells me that the gays have given up on her because the gays are the people that get these girls together. And when I saw that wig slip, I said the gays have just stopped working with her. all together i mean look if this was the rnc and she was following amber rose maybe jason you are shady af i'm just saying but it's just true though i noticed the same thing but i didn't say it i also said that that coat was huge i mean it well was it huge or was it snuggled i mean we we don't know what's under there you know look
