Rihanna apologizes to Donald Trump supporters and tells her to stay away from politics after joking about voting
Rihanna, 36, a recording artist from Barbados, didn’t hold back when she addressed trolls within the comments section of an Instagram post about politics.
The nine-time Grammy winner’s joke about the 2024 US presidential election caused an uproar, with several commentators clapping at her words.
“POV: I’m trying to sneak into the polls using my son’s passport. #votecauseicant,” Rihanna wrote under the video of her driving a automotive.
The “Good Girl Gone Bad” singer did just that two sons born in America with her boyfriend, rapper A$AP Rocky, 36. RZA Mayers was born on May 13, 2022, and Riot Mayers was born on August 1, 2023.
Moreover, she captioned her Instagram post: “Protecting p… and releasing p… can happen in one voice. #votecauseicant #TanSuitSeason.” The mention of vaginas in RiRi’s caption seemed to be an announcement about the fight for abortion rights in America.
Former President Donald Trump, 78, has repeatedly taken credit for appointing three Supreme Court justices who helped overturn Roe v. Wade. This landmark 1973 decision recognized that abortion is a constitutionally protected right within the United States.
“After 50 years of failure, with no one even close, I managed to kill Roe v. Wade, to everyone’s ‘shock’,” Trump wrote on his social media platform Truth in May 2023.
The MAGA leader added: “Without me, there would be no 6 weeks, 10 weeks, 15 weeks or anything that was finally agreed upon. Without me, the Pro-Life movement would still lose. Thank you President TRUMP!!!”
Rihanna’s light-hearted way of encouraging her followers to vote within the 2024 election became a serious topic when conservatives slammed the “Umbrella” hitmaker for her political opinions.
“Illegal voting is a crime. Maybe she should be arrested for trying,” one person commented. The Fenty Beauty founder replied, “Shut up, Karen.”
When one other person said the abortion issue “isn’t as important as you think,” Rihanna responded: “You’re f**ked up. And that is the America you dream of. I hope you will not have to experience this for yourself.
The “Ocean’s 8” star also hit back on the criticism, claiming the billionaire singer was misleading fans by saying she should persist with her “musical sister.”
In response, the Barbados-born businesswoman responded he asked“Where were you on January 6, sister? Stick with the discounted crotch. We are here fighting for his rights!”
Rihanna meant it crowd of Trump supporters storming the US Capitol. The Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol was allegedly a part of Trump’s failed coup plot to overturn the 2020 election after he lost to Democrat Joe Biden by a 306-232 Electoral College vote.
Trump currently faces a federal criminal case for his alleged role in the trouble to overturn his 2020 election defeat, which led to the Jan. 6 revolt on the U.S. Capitol. He pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy and obstruction.
