Rapper Cardi B (real name Belcalis Almanzar) took to Instagram live this week to rip President Donald Trump for the current partial government shutdown over southern border funding and trash his supporters, whom she classified as “racist rednecks.”
“You wanna build a wall because you promised these mother f***ers something that you know you couldn’t do,” said the rapper to her 39 million-plus followers, The Hill reports. “You promised these f***ing racist rednecks that you was gonna build the wall, but you know that was impossible. But they voted for you and you promised them this s***, so now you have to do it.”
“Even if motherf***ers build the wall, that’s still not going to f***ing prevent people coming into this country,” she continued.
“Trump is like a clout-chaser,” Cardi B said. “He’s like these new rap artists; they do the most for clout. And Trump wants that. Some people can have money, all the power in the world, but they really want that fame. And some people really wanna be seen as that. His legacy — he wants to go down as that bad person.”
“He loves to interrupt the peace,” she added.
“Trump wants to be cool with basketball teams, football teams, and black people!” she wrapped up the video.

In another Instagram post published on Wednesday evening, the entertainer further trashed Trump over the shutdown.
“I don’t wanna hear you motherf***ers saying Obama shutdown the government for 17 days,” she said. “That was for healthcare; so your grandmother could check her blood pressure and you b****es could check your p**** at the gynecologist.”
In March, the rapper again waded into political waters, this time talking about taxes.
“Aight, so you know the government is taking 40 percent of my taxes, and Uncle Sam, I want to know what you’re doing with my f***ing tax money, because you know what I’m sayin’, like, when you donate, like, when you donate to a kid from a foreign country, they give you updates of what they doing with your donation,” she said, as reported by Huffington Post’s Yashar Ali. Here’s the full text of Cardi B’s comments on taxes:
