Rapper Nicki Minaj appeared on ‘My View with Lara Trump’ to discuss her political views and support for President Donald Trump. During the interview, Minaj emphasized the importance of young Americans participating in the upcoming midterm elections scheduled for November 3.

Minaj encouraged the younger generation to engage in voting, stating, “Now is not the time to think that your voice will not be heard.” She stressed that young voices are crucial for national and global matters. “This is your country, this is your world,” Minaj stated, urging young adults to consider the impact of their electoral choices.

The rapper advised involvement in community activities and reminded voters to focus on local elections, beyond the presidential race. Minaj advocated for voting for Republican candidates, saying, “Please, and vote red now.” Her call to action aligns with her recent collaborations and support for the Trump administration.

Minaj spoke at the launch of Trump Accounts at the Andrew W. Mellon Auditorium in Washington on January 28, 2026. Together with President Trump, Minaj took part in organizing the Small Business Administration’s Million Dollar Pitch Competition, serving as a celebrity judge.

During the interview, Minaj described President Trump as authentic and praised his unscripted approach, stating, “He brings this candid, unedited vibe to the White House that we’ve never before seen.” Minaj mentioned that his direct manner offers a refreshing change and makes people feel engaged and alive.

Minaj’s outspoken support for President Trump continues, as she expressed her commitment to defending him, “I’ve made it my mission to be someone that supports him.” Lara Trump addressed the challenges Minaj faces within the music industry, which often criticizes the president.

Minaj believes that Democrats have focused excessively on pop culture, which she finds immature. “I think that they’ve allowed their relationships with artists to cause them to act like children,” she said.

Reflecting on her journey in the U.S., Minaj noted her rise from humble beginnings. “My fan base, they got to see me come from absolutely nothing,” she acknowledged, recognizing the struggle she faced firsthand. She concluded with her appreciation for the American dream and her gratitude for the opportunities it provided.
