Nicki Minaj said that backlash she’s received for supporting Donald Trump “motivates me to support him more,” as she appeared with the president at an event to promote Treasury Department “Trump Accounts.”
The Trump accounts, a type of IRA, provide $1,000 for every child born between January 1, 2025 and December 31, 2028. Parents can deposit $5,000 per year, but the accounts are in a child’s name and available to them when they turn 18. The Treasury Department has set up a plan of eligible investments, such as mutual funds. Roughly a month earlier at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest, Minaj told Erika Kirk, the organization’s CEO and Charlie Kirk’s widow, that she has “the utmost respect and admiration for our president. I don’t know if he even knows this, but he’s given so many people hope.”
Additional attendees at Wednesday’s summit included Marty Supreme and Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary, Curb Your Enthusiasm star Cheryl Hines, conservative influencer Isabel Brown, political consultant Alex Bruesewitz, Sen. Ted Cruz, Michael Dell and White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt.
