Waka Flocka Flame is feeling the heat after he insinuated Donald Trump is doing a better job than former president Barack Obama. On Wednesday (October 21), Obama spoke at a drive-in rally in South Philadelphia for Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and potential vice president Kamala Harris’s campaign.
As a clip of Obama’s speech started making the rounds on Twitter, someone commented, “its people who really think Trump is a better President than Obama … [clown emoji],” to which Waka replied, “guess I’m a clown.”
Waka is the latest rapper to show support for Trump in one way or another this month. 50 Cent caused an uproar on social media when he encouraged his 26.2 million Instagram followers to “vote for Trump” and claimed it didn’t bother him that Trump “doesn’t care about Black people.”
The Power mogul was evidently upset by Biden’s proposed tax plan, which would apply a 62 percent top tax rate to New Jersey and New York residents who make over $400,000 a year. He doubled down in another Instagram post, explaining he simply didn’t want to be “20 Cent.”
Then, Ice Cube confused his fanbase when Trump’s senior campaign advisor Katrina Pierson thanked the N.W.A legend for contributing his ideas to Trump’s Platinum Plan. Cube later clarified he didn’t “run” to either campaign, Trump’s just happened to be interested in his Contract With Black America (CWBA) initiative.

During an interview with CNN’s Chris Cuomo, Cube made it clear he would work with “whoever’s in power.”
“Your lead-ins are a little misleading,” he told Cuomo. “The Platinum Plan is not my plan. I came up with Contract With Black America. I didn’t run to work with any campaign. Both campaigns contacted me. Both campaigns wanted to talk to me about the Contract With Black America … I didn’t run to nobody, so that was real misleading to me.
“You said I ran over to the Trump team instead of the Biden team and that’s just not true. I’m willing to work with both teams. I’m just working with whoever is willing to work with me.”
Waka faced similar backlash on Twitter following his comment. Check out some of the reactions below.
Need to people here to give a list on how Obama was so great for the Black community besides having black skin.
but he is… look at the stats
Stats and responses to issues don’t lie. Barack was a smooth laid back dude. Very charismatic, but he didn’t really do anything for us but get elected. Trump is flawed, but he gave millions of dollars to HBCUs. DACA is a disaster, and Obama is a ripoff.
That Obama Care aka ACA fucked up the whole Healthcare system and turned it into shit allowing extremely high insurance premiums but yet y’all still praising this man like he did something for blacks Obama was never concerned about the sufferings of the Black community, but like all crossover Black elected officials who need the white vote to be in office, he played black folks like a fiddle and downplayed racism and replaced it with nonracial solutions that did not benefit blacks at all just so he didn’t piss off Congress. Yes Trump is and always has been Trump. Don’t know where the surprise is coming from so don’t understand the shock from his antics. Bush was a Coke head and he became president so everything is possible. I can’t recall the last time Obama gave HBCU $362 million but Trump did that. I’m no where a supporter of Trump but if we gonna really compare these 2 and actually look at the facts a lot of y’all gonna be extra extra church mouse quiet . Now y’all can spazz and pretend and comment how Obama was so great for us.
If you look at it from straight facts. No emotion involved at all. He’s 100% right. Obama was a nicer man and a better representation of our country. As far as getting shit done, it’s trump all the way. I like all of these uneducated fools who think Obama did nothing wrong. He was just better at hiding it. “Phony” is the word I believe. Obama put little kids in cages. He bombed the Middle East. He took money from pharma companies. He passed a half ass health care bill, and since we are on a hip hop website, HE DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to help inner city black neighborhoods. Think with your head. Not your heart. Pussies
And he made little boys and girls gays….
Obama was bombing brown and black people in seven countries simultaneosly. His administration dropped 26,000 bombs on them just 2016 alone. He was awarded the nobel peace prize for destroying Libya with France and NATO so that africans can more easily enter europe and replace whitey, according to the Kalergi-plan.
Just remember, If there’s any good that trump did, please give credit to Obama. Lol facts
Kanye, cube, 50 cent and waka flocka. Trump getting a lot of love from the hip hop community!
Obama: 1. Bombed civils in Iraq and Afghanistan. 2. Crushed the well-functioning Lybia and made it a war zone. 3. Made ISIS. 4. Signed a contract with the misogynist, terrorist-supporter Saudi-Arabia for cheap oil. 5. Made Venezuela collapse just because they had a socialist leader.
Trump: Talked shit on Twitter.
at least Trump hasn’t started any new wars
um, he started a war on his own country dumbass and he ignored the coronavirus. 200,000+ dead.
wake the fuck up!!!
That’s why the j00ish media hates him! lsrael needs bloodshed!
That’s right he hasn’t. Globalist like to start wars, raise taxes and waste tax dollars overseas.
Why are journalists such sleazy excuses for human beings? Why can’t the story be “Waka insinuates Trump is better president than Obama” where you just cover the fact that he posted what he posted? Why do you have to make the story about the people on Twitter who are mad about the post? Why include that at all? You don’t do that when a rapper supports a Democrat.
Because Democrats aren’t disgusting people like Donald Trump. I just don’t understand how the fuck he still has people defending him. You must be a special kind of stupid…like a Waka Flocka Flame level of stupidity or something…
Funny none of the comments below are by black people. SMH
You must have super powers that allow you to see a persons skin color through the comment sections lol. Are you saying all black people think alike? That’s kind of racist.
Racist how? So, if I see culture vultures coming sideways I am supposed to let them slide nah b. As far as superpowers, well my melanin is a superpower, it allows me to sense the bullshit. Never said all black folks think alike, money, but the truth remains the truth, ain’t no ” alternate” truth.
Fuck Boy I’m black and I don’t subscribe to everything black because of my skin color. Believe it or not some of us black ppl actually pay attention to US politics as well global politics.
Fuck boy? Dumb ass that’s a dead give away you ain’t black. Imbecile, you pay attention to US ang global politics? Really then tell me why is Haiti in such poor conditions and it’s in the US’s backyard? Why doed racist like Sen. Rubio try to get the DR and Haiti to not deal with China claim? Why some kneegrows worship the orange clown when he clearly hates black and brown folks? I Self Lord and Master, check yourself cave boy.
Wow. This guy can’t have his own opinion without the gang of woke wolves attacking. What a joke the Democrats have become. True racists and fascists vote blue. They don’t want brown and black people thinking differently than their identity politics will allow. You must stay on their leash apparently.
Maxine Waters has her district looking like Guatemala’s worse slums. She has all her backing on bringing in more illegals and leaving nothing left for the black people struggling to make a living. She’s rather import her constituents. That’s a fact. Now you loyal subjects to the slavemaster AKA the DNC claim Trump is the problem, but I don’t see why. You all never have facts just emotions like children. Record number of black males homeless in LA alone….under Democrat rule. Go figure, you dummies will still vote D.
i would really like to hear trumps speeches voiced over with barack obamas voice.
All these comments with no actual facts are pretty hilarious..
