Cardi B originally made the comment in a now-deleted video in which she said Trump supporters should “burn your f***ing hats.”
Trump, who is seeking a second term, narrowly defeated Harris in the election, angering many voters.
In the video, which Cardi B deleted in response to criticism after posting it, she said: “This is why some of your states are having hurricanes, that’s all I’m saying. “
She continued, “I swear to God I’ll beat you to death, stay away from me! I’m sick of you! Burn your hat motherfucker***** I’m really sad. I I swear to God I’m really sad.”
Many fans criticized the rapper for lashing out at hurricane victims in her comments section, causing her to take down the post.
Social media users reacted diversely to Cardi B’s video. While some found her communication humorous, others criticized her for using her platform to attract attention and then demand privacy.
For example, one particularly harsh comment stated: “You helped Trump BIG! You showed and reminded the world that having $$ and fame does not equal intelligence!”
Despite the criticism that worries her, Cardi B continues to boldly advocate for women and political change.
Speaking at a recent rally on behalf of Harris in Milwaukee, US, she said: “Women have to work 10 times harder, perform 10 times better and people still question it. I”.
Meanwhile, Cardi B praised Harris during a protest last week despite the election results, saying: “I know that she’s probably very emotional right now… but millions of people are wondering proud of her.”
“Women in every country are proud of her,” she added.
Harris, who lost Tuesday’s election, thanked her supporters and said they should never give up even in the face of impossible odds.
“This is one of the most unforgettable elections and I love her,” Cardi B wrote on Instagram before the polls closed.
