Waka Flocka Flame Voices Support for Donald Trump Ahead of 2024 Election
In a recent Instagram post, rapper Waka Flocka Flame, whose real name is Juaquin James Malphurs, publicly endorsed Donald Trump just days before the upcoming U.S. Presidential Election set for November 5, 2024. This endorsement continues to draw attention as the election season intensifies.
On Saturday, November 2, Waka Flocka shared a photo of himself alongside Trump. In his caption, he emphasized the authenticity of his support:
“Big T24!!!! If you don’t like me or don’t f with me based off my view then the love was never real… and if you engage in public disrespect I will never go back n forth with you ever… Im just moving forward…. Just don’t physically touch me..”
He further clarified that his decision to support Trump was not influenced by anyone or any financial arrangements, stating:
“If you truly knew and know my flight I’m all for independence… any questions take up with @raspy_rawls2 and he will let me know.”
Public Reaction to the Endorsement
The Shade Room shared Waka’s post, generating a flurry of reactions from online users. While some criticized Waka for grammatical errors in his caption, others questioned his motivation for endorsing Trump. One user bluntly suggested that Trump was oblivious to who he was standing next to, while another derogatorily labeled both individuals as “clowns.”
Previous Endorsements and Controversies
This is not the first time Waka Flocka has expressed support for Trump. Earlier in August 2024, he tweeted his intentions to vote for the former president, proclaiming that Trump would always be his president:
“I choose not to eat pork but does that make me hate pork lovers or disrespect their character… nor will I act like…”
Additionally, during a performance in Utah in July 2024, he urged Biden supporters to leave the venue, stating,
“We going to see y’all at the bingo game. We’re gonna party right now for motherf**king president T24!”
Waka’s first notable support for Trump appeared in October 2023, when he posted a photo of himself with the former president on X (formerly Twitter). Despite facing backlash from various platforms, he defended his stance by highlighting his allegiance to his fans:
“I only answer to the people that made me and that’s my fans aka the people… I love y’all with every bone in my body man Squaddd.”
The Political Landscape Ahead of the Election
With Trump currently in the race for the presidency in 2024, recent polls indicate a closely contested election. As reported by The Hill on November 2, Vice President Kamala Harris holds a slight national lead of 3 points, while Trump shines in states like Arizona, where he enjoys a competitive edge. However, Harris leads in crucial battlegrounds, including North Carolina and Pennsylvania.
As we approach the election date, the stakes are high, and opinions on the candidates continue to spark discussions across social media.
