Cardi B Criticizes Trump Over Food Stamp Cuts Ahead of Thanksgiving

Cardi B is once again speaking out, and this time, she’s putting the focus on what she sees as the real-life consequences of government decisions. During a Saturday Twitter Spaces session, the Bronx rapper addressed the Trump administration’s impact on food assistance programs, saying families are now feeling the squeeze as the holidays approach.

“People are complaining that they have taken away food stamps,” she said. “Thanksgiving is next month, no turkey for some of y’all.”

The Grammy winner reminded listeners that she tried to warn them about what was coming while she was campaigning for Kamala Harris.

“These are the type of things I was trying to tell y’all about when I was talking about the Trump administration…But all y’all cared about was me saying ‘Shrump.’”

Her words come as many Americans continue to face economic challenges, with food costs still rising and federal assistance stretched thin. She also called out the tariffs, which are driving up prices for luxury and everyday items. Cardi’s point is simple: when public programs are cut, it’s not politicians who suffer, it’s the working-class people.
