Donald Trump labeled 'disgusting' over 'gross' act towards Nicki Minaj
Viewers have called Donald Trump out after his comments and behavior towards Nicki Minaj at a midterm rally in Michigan on Sunday (October 25).
The US President was reportedly caught 'being gross' on camera with the hip-hop star after the pair shared the stage at the weekend.
During the rally, which was held in a hockey arena in Port Huron, Michigan, there was a moment that caught the attention of those on social media.
Minaj, a public supporter of Trump, made her way up after the 80-year-old called on her, as he remarked that she has 'one hell of a beautiful a**', to which she responded with a smile.
It was a truly bizarre moment, but that wasn't all that happened between the two, if those online are to be believed.
Donald Trump allegedly checked Nicki Minaj out
After making comments about her behind, it seems like the 47th US President didn't hide his admiration for Minaj's body.
An X account posted a clip of the incident, where Minaj stated: "I will continue to support you forever and ever. If you run again, I will support you again," despite Trump already being in his second term.
The caption claims: "Trump closely watches her go down the stairs at [eyes emoji symbol]."
Trump looked closely as the artist made her way down the stairs after her short speech and an embrace, with many believing that he was looking at her from behind.
In fact, they swiftly took to the comments section, leaving no thoughts unsaid.
Viewers share thoughts on uncomfortable interaction
One viewer wrote: "I’m so disgusted by this whole thing. She’s not even offended by his comment and standing her up in a cheap show."
Another added: "Two gross, stupid people," as a third said: "Who are all of these disgusting people clapping and cheering for this??? Gross."
"This behavior of his should receive ZERO APPLAUSE," a different user claimed.
A fifth added: "Totally weird. Almost like he knows it’s over," as another asked: "How can people keep excusing this disgusting behavior?
"I can't stand Trump, but this literally makes me depressed. Our President on live camera objectifying a woman, reducing her to nothing more than her backside. Every woman should be ashamed of him."
Nicki Minaj was gifted the 'Gold Card'
Back in January, the artist shared that she was given the so-called Trump "Gold Card", a special visa offering a direct path to U.S. residency and citizenship, an exclusive privilege usually reserved for those who can afford to pay $1 million.
The card features President Donald Trump's face and provides wealthy individuals with expedited US citizenship if they can demonstrate they will substantially benefit the country.
The 43-year-old rapper took to X to share a picture of the Trump Gold Card, writing: "Welp" in the caption.
She then shared a follow-up post, which read: "Residency? Residency? The cope is coping. Finalizing that citizenship paperwork as we speak as per MY wonderful, gracious, charming President. Thanks to the petition.
"I wouldn’t have done it without you. Oh CitizenNIKA you are thee moment," she penned, adding: "Gold Trump card free of charge."
Minaj herself was born in Trinidad and arrived in the US as an immigrant at the age of five, claiming in 2018 that she 'came to this country as an illegal immigrant at five years old'.
Back then, she also criticized the government’s family-separation policies, though Trump has vowed to remove every illegal immigrant from the country.
