On November 1, 2024, rapper Cardi B delivered an impassioned speech at a campaign rally in Wisconsin, showing her strong support for Vice President Kamala Harris. The event took place at Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis, where Cardi, dressed in an all-white power suit, energized the crowd with her powerful words.
Cardi began by rallying the audience, asking, “Are we ready to make history?” The crowd responded enthusiastically, as she shared how Harris’s candidacy had changed her perspective on voting. Initially, Cardi B was not planning to vote, but after hearing Harris speak, she felt hopeful. “I didn’t believe in any candidates until she joined the race and said what I needed to hear,” Cardi explained, highlighting how Harris addressed issues that personally mattered to her.
During her nearly 10-minute speech, Cardi praised Harris for her passion, kindness, and commitment to tackling significant issues like economic inequality and the rising cost of living. “Kamala sees that our country is in trouble. We need a stronger economy, and living expenses are too high,” Cardi said, emphasizing the need for action. She also spoke about how women often face additional challenges in the workplace. “Like Kamala Harris, I’ve been an underdog. Women have to work ten times harder and still get questioned about how we made it,” she added, connecting deeply with the crowd.
Cardi B didn’t shy away from criticizing former President Donald Trump, particularly his recent statements about protecting women. “He claims he will protect women whether we like it or not,” Cardi said, challenging his notion of protection. She argued that true support for women’s rights means ensuring access to healthcare and the right to make decisions about their own bodies. “Protection means supporting women with the healthcare we need, not telling us what to do with our bodies,” Cardi firmly stated.
Continuing her criticism, Cardi B expressed her opposition to Trump’s policies, claiming they promote division and could undermine Americans’ rights and access to affordable healthcare. “I’m not giving Donald Trump another chance. I won’t risk my future or my children’s future!” she declared.
In her closing remarks, Cardi issued a call to action for the upcoming election: “I’m with Kamala. I believe in her. And I believe in you, America. Get out and vote on Tuesday. Let’s win this!” Her endorsement, along with support from other artists like GloRilla, Flo Milli, and MC Lyte, added momentum to Harris’s campaign, encouraging voters to make history at the polls.
