Azealia Banks has once again stirred controversy — but this time it’s for her political allegiances rather than her potty mouth.
On Tuesday (July 9), the “212” rapper gave a clear indication who she plans to vote for in the upcoming presidential election when she was spotted attending a Donald Trump rally in Doral, Florida.
Banks reposted a video on social media of her in the crowd at the event and speaking into the camera, although her voice is drowned out by Trump’s speech.
After the footage circulated, fans were quick to criticize the Harlem native over her support of the controversial former president.
“Duuuuuh! Are we surprised. She hates herself [shrugging emoji, whining emoji],” one person commented on Instagram.
“I mean after she boiled that dead cat during Covid. Are we really surprised?” another said, while a third critic added: “Baby idk what’s going on with this world…but he’s another Jim Jones and they all drinking that juice….CULT LIKE ACTIVITIES!!”
Azealia Banks is no newcomer to Team Trump having endorsed the businessman turned politician since 2016 when he (successfully) first ran for president.
“Ok so, I think I’m ready to admit that I’m going to vote for Donald Trump,” she wrote on X (then Twitter) at the time. “I think Trump is the only one who truly has the balls to bust up big business.”
She also criticized the other candidates, writing: “Hilary is too tied in with them and Bernie has no clout. The other candidates are simply … ‘Them hoes over there’ #thots.
“Just because Hilary Clinton and Bernie sanders say nice things about minorities doesn’t mean they actually mean them. Politicians have been saying “nice” things about colored folks and we’ve still been getting fucked.”
Banks also isn’t the only rapper who is backing Trump in the run up to this year’s election.
In May, Sheff G and Sleepy Hallow also raised eyebrows after appearing on stage with Trump at a rally in their hometown of the Bronx.
“One thing I wanna say… they always gonna whisper your accomplishments and shout your failures. Trump gonna shout the wins for all of us,” Sheff said while gracing the mic.
His fellow drill rapper also said a few words to the crowd after shaking Trump’s hand: “Make America great again!”
The following month, Detroit natives Icewear Vezzo and Peezy posed for a photograph with Trump and defended their decision after facing backlash online.
When one of his followers accused the former president of using him and Vezzo as “pawns,” Peezy embraced the jab and replied: “damn right.”
It was previously reported that Trump was looking to recruit Hip Hop artists and athletes to curry favor with the Black community in a bid to return to the Oval Office.
An article published by Rolling Stone earlier this week delved deeper into that story, claiming that the 78-year-old is working with disgraced Fyre Festival organizer Billy McFarland to connect him with rappers like those mentioned above.
The resident retard Bernadette the ultra pathetic, corny, cringy, embarrassing, non-credible, fraudulent, garbage, short bus rider Giacumazzo is the biggest Trump stan there is. This laughable lame Bernadette donated her entire 2023 salary of 133.75 from her beyond laughable B/S freelancing gig of copying n pasting corny Z list gossip to Trump’s 2024 campaign.
Man, Bernadette must have broken your heart or something lol. There’s no way you would spend literally years of your life bashing someone for no reason. What happened for you to have so much hatred for someone?
@Go give your mom a hug It’s always good when other people call out this scumbag. He/she hates me as much as they hate Bernadette because i get under their skin. Let’s just see if my comment even gets posted. That’s another story.
@Go give your mom a hug…For no reason? 😭😭😭😭 Iz you stupid or iz you dumb?
@Scarfy’s mom….Scarfy hates you too you worthless waste of space
Interesting that the majority of celebrity Trump supporters are either has beens, crazy people, or both.
What does that say about the people who support Biden who has been slipping into senility since taking office? Never mind his bad policies.
You know you can just not support either one? If you like or support trump, you probably enjoy licking toilet seats too.
Vote for RFK.
Vote Castro.
She’s looking for that White Republican sugar daddy amidst the crowd
Good for her. You vote for who you want to vote for.
Why am I not in the least but surprised. A true 🤡 A$$ B**ch. Carry on!!!
I would just like to bring to the attention to the 16 people who visit this absolute joke and dumpster fire of a slte that July 9th marks 1 full month now that we officially threw out that trash better known as Bernadett the buff00n Giacumazzo. Good fcking riddance Bernie I can guarantee you with 100 percent certainty you won’t be missed. You are a certified cancer and culture vulture who has laughably pretended to be a part of a coveted culture you know absolutely NOTHING about. There’s only so long fake, fraudulent, non-credible, embarrassing, corny, cringy, wannabe, junk azz “journalists” really a bum azz blogger can pretend and after nearly 47 pathetic years of writing thousands and thousands of nonsensical bullshlt that nobody ever reads your time is finally up and we can all now celebrate our flawless victory. I kept telling your stupid azz I’m not “Ms. Mel” and that you was really playing with the right 1 this time and you and I both know you definitely found that out. You spent over 3 years of your worthless, pathetic life trying DESPERATELY every single day to figure out who I am and of course just like everything else in your pitiful life you failed miserably. So with all that said BERNADETT THE BUM GIACUMAZZO ROT IN PlSS TO YOU AND TO YOUR SUSPENDED X PAGE FOR THE 6TH TIME NOW 😭
