Nicki Minaj Reaffirms Support for Trump at Michigan Rally, Urges Voters to Back Republicans

POLITICS • UNITED STATES • OCTOBER 26, 2026

Rapper Nicki Minaj has publicly reaffirmed her support for US President Donald Trump, joining him onstage at a Republican campaign rally in Port Huron, Michigan, where she also urged voters to support Republican candidates ahead of the November 2026 midterm elections.

Minaj appeared at the rally on Sunday, October 25, as Trump campaigned for Republican US Senate candidate Mike Rogers and gubernatorial candidate John James. Her appearance brought a prominent entertainment figure into the final stretch of Michigan's election campaign.

According to Fox News, Minaj told Trump that she would continue supporting him and would do so again if he ran for office in the future. She praised what she described as his resilience and said his return to the White House had changed the country's atmosphere and given Americans hope for a brighter future.

Key moments from the rally

1. Minaj pledges continued support

“I will continue to support you forever and ever,” Minaj told Trump, adding that she would support him again if he ran for office in the future.

2. Calls for Republican victories

Minaj encouraged the audience to support Mike Rogers in the Senate race and John James in the Michigan governor's race, describing the election as a significant turning point for the country.

3. Remarks on transgender issues involving children

Minaj also expressed opposition to children being exposed to what she characterized as unwanted gender-transition interventions, making the issue part of her political remarks at the rally.

Political context and implications

The appearance comes ahead of the US midterm elections scheduled for November 3, 2026. Republicans are seeking victories in key contests, including Michigan's Senate and gubernatorial races.

Minaj's participation gives the campaign access to her substantial entertainment profile and fan base. However, her appearance alone does not establish how voters will respond or whether it will affect election results.

One constitutional point is also important: the US 22nd Amendment bars a person from being elected president more than twice. Trump's current second term means Minaj's comment about supporting him again should not be interpreted as evidence of a legally available third-term candidacy.

Editorial note: The report distinguishes Minaj's own statements from independently established facts. The political implications are analysis, not a prediction of the election outcome.
