Nicki Minaj says she has thrown her weight behind Donald Trump because she could not stand to see him being “bullied.”
The rapper has surprised many of her fans by becoming an outspoken supporter of the president in recent months, even appearing on stage with him at a U.S. treasury event last month.
In an interview with Katie Miller, the wife of the architect of Trump’s immigration policies, Stephen Miller, Minaj explained why she has given Trump her backing.
“When I saw how he was being treated over and over and over, I just couldn’t handle it,” she said on The Katie Miller Podcast. “I felt that…a lot of that bullying, and the smear campaigns and all of the lying, I felt that that had been done to me for so many years.
“And I was watching it in real time happen to someone else, and I didn’t think he deserved it.”
