Nicki Minaj has shared an unusual 15-point statement on social media following the Republican Party's defeat in the 2026 US midterm elections.
The 43-year-old rapper, who has become an increasingly vocal supporter of President Donald Trump, published the message on X on Thursday, November 5.
Her comments came after Democrats secured control of both the House of Representatives and the Senate, dealing a major setback to Republicans ahead of the final two years of Trump's presidency.
Rather than distancing herself from the administration, Minaj used the statement to reaffirm her political allegiances, address her critics and praise several prominent figures.
However, the unusual wording of some of her remarks has attracted attention, with readers questioning the meaning behind several points.
What did Nicki Minaj say in her 15-point statement?
Minaj began her message by reminding followers that Trump remained president despite the election results.
Her opening point read: "Trump is STILL your PRESIDENT."
She then turned her attention towards people who regularly discuss her online, writing: "The QUEEN is STILL your OBSESSION."
The rapper also included a religious declaration and praised Vice President JD Vance, describing his insight positively.
Another point emphasised the importance of knowledge, while Minaj congratulated election winners, specifically mentioning Republican politicians Anna Paulina Luna and Byron Donalds.
She subsequently criticised a campaign that had spent approximately $1 billion without securing victory.
Although she did not clearly identify the campaign, UNILAD suggested the remark may have referred to Kamala Harris' 2024 presidential campaign.
Minaj also addressed her supporters, known as the Barbz, reassuring them that they remained central to her message.
Among the more unusual lines was: "I don't vote, I VETO."
She followed that with a message telling critics to remain attentive and expressing defiance towards those celebrating the Republican losses.
Other points referred to religious persecution, including concerns about violence against Christians.
Minaj also suggested that recent events might encourage people to reconsider their political views.
She closed the initial portion of her statement with an affectionate message and emojis, before continuing with two additional points.
Why did Nicki Minaj mention Elon Musk and Grok?
The final two points of Minaj's statement focused on technology entrepreneur Elon Musk and his artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok.
In her 14th point, Minaj defended Musk while taking aim at people who criticise him on his own social media platform.
She wrote: "Elon is STILL a trillionaire and you are STILL posting on his app."
She also suggested that the platform's shareholders benefited from the attention generated by its users.
In her final point, Minaj praised Grok, describing the chatbot as a product that had significantly improved her life.
She thanked the account associated with the AI system, although she did not provide detailed examples of how she had been using it.
The comments reflected her public support for Musk, who has been closely associated with Trump's political movement.
What happened in the 2026 US midterm elections?
The 2026 midterm elections took place on Tuesday, November 3, with voters choosing representatives for all 435 House seats and more than a third of the Senate.
Democrats secured majorities in both chambers of Congress, ending Republican control of the House and Senate.
The results included Democratic gains in several states that had previously been considered Republican strongholds.
According to the Associated Press, Democrats flipped at least seven Senate seats and gained more than two dozen House districts.
The outcome gives Democrats greater power to investigate the Trump administration and challenge its legislative priorities when the new Congress convenes in January 2027.
However, Trump remains president, and Democratic control of Congress does not automatically allow the party to enact legislation without overcoming presidential vetoes and other procedural requirements.
How did Nicki Minaj become a Donald Trump supporter?
Minaj's political involvement has become increasingly public over the past year.
Although she previously criticised some of Trump's immigration policies during his first presidency, she later emerged as a prominent celebrity supporter of his administration.
In January 2026, she appeared alongside Trump at the White House's Trump Accounts Summit.
During the event, she publicly praised the president and expressed support for his leadership.
She also discussed her political views during an appearance on The Katie Miller Podcast, citing religious freedom and her concerns about the criticism directed towards Trump.
Her involvement extended to the campaign trail ahead of the November midterms.
In October, Minaj appeared alongside Trump at a rally in Port Huron, Michigan, where she expressed support for Republican candidates.
She also made a public appearance at a polling station in New Hampshire on election day, according to UNILAD.
What has Nicki Minaj said about Christians in Nigeria?
Another part of Minaj's statement referred to violence against Christians.
The rapper has previously spoken publicly about religious persecution in Nigeria, including during an event at the United Nations.
Her comments have contributed to a wider debate about violence and insecurity in the country.
Nigeria has experienced attacks affecting Christian and Muslim communities, with violence involving extremist groups, armed gangs and communal conflicts.
Claims that all such violence is part of a single coordinated campaign against Christians remain disputed, and the causes vary considerably by region and incident.
Minaj's statement did not provide new evidence about specific incidents or establish a connection between events in Nigeria and the US midterm election results.
Could Nicki Minaj become Trump's White House press secretary?
Minaj's increasingly public support for the president has also prompted speculation about whether she could take on a formal role in his administration.
Trump previously entertained the idea of the rapper becoming White House press secretary, describing the suggestion as a good idea.
However, there has been no confirmed announcement that Minaj has been appointed to the position.
Her recent political statements and campaign appearances demonstrate her willingness to publicly support the president, but they do not establish that she intends to pursue a government role.
What does Nicki Minaj's statement mean for her political support?
Minaj's 15-point message indicates that she remains publicly aligned with Trump despite the Republican Party's electoral losses.
Her remarks combined political support, religious references, criticism of opponents and praise for technology figures including Elon Musk.
Although some statements were ambiguous, her overall position was clear: the midterm results had not prompted her to withdraw her support for the president.
The post also demonstrated how celebrity political commentary continues to intersect with social media, with prominent entertainers using their platforms to respond directly to national political events.
With Democrats preparing to take control of Congress, attention now turns to how the election results will affect the Trump administration's remaining agenda.
