Minaj Claims Trump “Gold Card” Amid Citizenship Talk (Full Transcript)
[00:00:00] Speaker 1: Hello guys, I'm with my favorite president, the best president of all time.
[00:00:06] Speaker 2: And I'm with the queen of rap. Nicki Minaj posted a picture with a Trump gold card, a new immigration visa that allows foreigners to pay $1 million to expedite their application.

Minaj, originally from Trinidad and Tobago, was at the White House to promote Trump accounts.
[00:00:30] Speaker 3: Well, the only thing is, I'm not a citizen of America, isn't that crazy? But I've been in the States for many years. You would think that with the millions of dollars that I've paid in taxes to this country, that I would have been given an honorary citizenship many, many, many thousands of years ago.
[00:00:49] Speaker 2: In 2018, Minaj made a Facebook post criticizing family separation during Trump's first term. I came to this country as an illegal immigrant at five years old. I can't imagine the horror of being in a strange place and having my parents stripped away from me at the age of five. This is so scary to me. Please stop this.
