Cardi B Reveals Her “Uncle Got Deported” During Donald Trump Rant
Cardi B’s recent complaints about Pres. Donald Trump’s attendance at yesterday’s (Feb. 9) Super Bowl led the “Toot It Up” rapper to reveal a member of her family has been deported.
Following the Philadelphia Eagles wiping out the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22, the mother of three took to social media to share her frustration with the security measures that were in place due to Trump’s attendance.
“Yo, I was too f**king mad today because, you know, Donald Trump and sh*t,” Cardi said in an IG video. “He was at the Super Bowl today and they was giving us a hard time. Oh my gosh. The Secret Service was not playing at that motherf**ker. The Secret Service was not playing to get in that motherf**kin’ stadium. Oh my god.”
She went on to say that the hassle of getting into the arena and to her section resulted in one of her very expensive shoes being damaged. “This shoe cost me three bands,” Cardi said. “All ‘cause of Trump. Now I like him lesser. Now I like him lesser because you didn’t have to go to no damn Super Bowl. Fucking up my shoe. … Now he’s gonna have to, well, he definitely ain’t gon’ do that, bring my uncle. . . back because my uncle got deported.”
The Bronx, New York native of Dominican and Trinidadian descent did not elaborate further on her uncle’s deportation or on her Super Bowl frustrations. See her discuss the incident below.
Since his inauguration, Pres. Trump has implemented deportation policies that have affected thousands of undocumented immigrants, particularly those from Latin countries. Colombian-American actor John Leguizamo recently addressed the mass deportations, calling them “dehumanizing.”
“My immigrant brothers and sisters I know you’re not felons, I know you’re not criminals,” he began before calling Trump’s policies an “attack on Latin immigrants,” adding that the order “dehumanizes the community.”
