Cardi B claps back at conservative columnist: 'If I twerk... does that mean I deserve to get raped'
Don’t come for Cardi B this week.
After firing back at Tomi Lahren, the “Money” rapper aimed her social media ire at Daily Caller video columnist Stephanie Hamill on Tuesday. The conservative reporter singled out Cardi — who has been making headlines for her anti-Trump views recently — claiming her sexualized music videos, like the one for “Twerk,” don’t empower women. Hamill invited “leftists” and the musician to chime in.
In the Era of #meToo how exactly does this empower women?
Leftists, @iamcardib , feel free to chime in.

Well, Cardi B did just that. The Grammy-nominated artist replied, tweeting she can “wear and not wear” whatever she wants. She added, “So Stephanie chime in…If I twerk and be half naked does that mean I deserve to get raped and molested ?”
Hamill tweeted back agreeing that, “No means NO, NO MATTER what!” However, she claimed “this video” and others like it “sexually objectify women.” She added, “I think this hurts all women & the cause. We’re not sex OBJECTS!”
I agree, No means NO, NO MATTER what!
But this video, & others like this sexually objectify women. I think this hurts all women & the cause. We’re not sex OBJECTS! Clearly we see things differently, (maybe I’m just a hater bc I can’t Twerk 🤣) Come on my show, debate me! https://t.co/TaqAiF9Jmv— Stephanie Hamill (@STEPHMHAMILL) January 22, 2019
We’re guessing the invite to appear on Hamill’s show is most likely going to be a hard pass from the star. Although Cardi B didn’t engage with the reporter again, she had one more thing to say.
“All these conservatives been harassing me and telling me the most disgusting things these past few days,” she tweeted. “Listen I’m not telling ya to turn liberal all I’m saying is to admit that your president is f***in up this country right now! Liberal or conservative we ALL suffer as citizens.”
Cardi B has made it clear she’s fed up with the government shutdown, using her platform to criticize President Trump and his administration. And she’s not going to shut up anytime soon.
