People think they can explain Nicki Minaj’s right-wing pivot

Last week, Nicki Minaj was a surprise guest at the Turning Point USA Conference:

While people are of course free to associate with whatever political movement they like, Turning Point founder Charlie Kirk didn’t seem to agree that they should be:

Turning Point for Nicki Minaj?

The following is a video of Nicki Minaj with widow Erika Kirk:

Here’s another video in which Minaj accidentally referred to JD Vance as an ‘assassin’:

This was awkward because some people on the right think Erika Kirk was involved in her husband’s murder. While we’ve seen no evidence to support that, she’s certainly not very traditional when it comes to grieving:

So, why has Minaj pivoted?

The theory is she wants a pardon for her brother:

And her husband:

Potentially she plans on committing some crimes of her own too.

There’s good reason to suspect Nicki Minaj is being cynical anyway. This is what she posted in July this year (emphasis added):

Desirat were you out marching with your fellow Mexican immigrants????? Oh, right…you were pardoned by President Trump so you kinda can’t, right? I mean it kind of implies you guys are cool with him while yall seem to pretend to be against him.

Or are yall not his friend either anymore just like Diddy? I mean if someone pardoned me we’d be friends for life.

Clearly, this woman has got pardons on the mind.

Regardless of whether Nicki Minaj is genuine or not, we do know what the late Charlie Kirk would think:

Is Charlie Kirk spinning in his grave right now?

If he is, have his former colleagues hooked him up to a wind turbine to generate Patriot brand electricity?

And would that be the most cynical thing they’ve done this week?

Regardless of what Minaj is or isn’t up to, we know how her (former) fans are taking it:
