Cardi B is well known for being a very vocal celebrity and always speaking her mind, including when it comes to politics! That being said, the female emcee made it very clear that sheâs on Ilhan Omarâs side after Donald Trumpâs supporters chanted to âsend her backâ during a rally.
Furthermore, Cardi showed her support in a less conventional way, by quoting Queen Beyonce!
More precisely, the lyric she used was from the song âFormation,â a true anthem for women’s empowerment.
It all started with a disgusting display of racism at a Trump rally expressed in the form of chants to send U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar âbackâ when the current President mentioned her name.

While Omar was born in Somalia, she is currently an America citizen and lives in Minnesota.
The 37 year old is one of the 4 WOC congresswomen referred to as âThe Squadâ that the Donald has told to âgo backâ to their âtotally broken and crime infestedâ nations, despite the fact that they are all, with no exception, American citizens!
As for Cardi showing support to Omar, she wanted to make it known that she stands by her via that Beyonce song.
Not too long after the rally, Cardi shared a pic of Omar smiling on her IG page and in the caption, she added: âYou know you that b***h when you cause all this conversation ðð½ââï¸.â
Cardiâs followers generally agreed, commenting things like: âCrowd chanting send her back was really disgusting sometimes America ainât s**t sometimes we shine bright today was not one of those days ð¤¦ð¾ââï¸.â / âFacts, sheâs bold and very strong!ððâ¤ï¸.â / âYes, we stand with all the women Trump has put down.â / âSheâs a bad a** woman! All 4 of them!ððð.â / âI LOVE HOW CARDI SPEAKS ON WORLD ISSUES ðð¾â
