Nicki Minaj declares herself Trump’s “No. 1 fan” at Washington summit

Nicki Minaj publicly reaffirmed her support for President Donald Trump while speaking at the Trump Accounts Summit held in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, January 28. 

The rapper praised the administration’s newly introduced investment initiative aimed at U.S.-born children and announced plans to contribute significant personal funds to the program.

During her remarks, Minaj described herself as Trump’s “No. 1 fan,” stating that criticism over her political views has not deterred her. Instead, she said the backlash has strengthened her resolve to continue supporting the president and his initiatives. Minaj also criticized what she described as public “bullying” directed at Trump, emphasizing her belief that he remains resilient amid controversy.

According to reports, Minaj plans to donate between $150,000 and $300,000 to the Trump Accounts program. The initiative, introduced under Trump’s “One Big Beautiful Bill Act,” provides a one-time $1,000 government contribution into investment accounts for children born between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2028. Families may add up to $5,000 annually, with funds invested in a broad stock market index.

Minaj previously promoted her participation in the program on social media, highlighting the importance of early financial literacy and long-term economic planning for children. She described the accounts as a way to “pay it forward” and help future generations build financial independence.

The program has also attracted major donations from prominent Trump-aligned supporters, including Michael and Susan Dell, who pledged over $6 billion in December 2025. Trump has described the initiative as a transformative step toward expanding financial opportunity for American families.

Minaj’s appearance marked her latest high-profile involvement with Trump-affiliated events, following recent appearances at conservative gatherings and policy-focused forums.
