Cardi B With Speech at Milwaukee Rally

2024-11-02 14:15:03

Cardi B delivered an impassioned speech for Vice President Kamala Harris’ rally in Wisconsin on Friday. The Grammy-winning rapper appeared at the “When We Vote We Win” concert event in Milwaukee, following performances by GloRilla, MC Lyte, the Isley Brothers, Flo Milli and DJ Gemini Gilly.

“Just like Kamala Harris, I too have been the underdog,” Cardi told the audience in Wisconsin. “I’ve been underestimated. My success, belittle and discredited. Women have to work 10 times harder, perform 10 times better, and still, people question us how we got to the top.”

Cardi also made the point that she hadn’t originally planned to vote this year, but changed her mind when Harris joined the race (before President Joe Biden dropped out in May, Cardi told her millions of followers she wouldn’t be casting a ballot, criticizing the Biden administration for sending aid to “fund two wars,” she said). She praised Harris’ economic plan against price gouging and her proposal for down payment assistance for first time homebuyers, adding “[Harris] is promising a lot… and I believe her… ”

“[Harris] changed my mind completely,” Cardi explained during the rally. “I did not have faith for any candidate until she joined the race and said the things that I wanted to hear — things I want to see next in this country. I believe in every word that comes out of her mouth; she’s passionate, she’s compassionate, she shows empathy, and most of all, she is not delusional.”

At one point, Cardi referred to former president Donald Trump as “Donny Dump” and criticized his claim that he would protect women’s rights. “If your definition of protection is making sure our daughters have fewer rights than their mothers, then I don’t want it,” she said.

Friday’s rally is one of many the Harris-Walz campaign has hosted in recent weeks. Harris has seen support from performers and speakers at rallies including Gracie Abrams, Mumford & Sons, Remi Wolfe, Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, Bruce Springsteen, Maná, Megan Thee Stallion, Jennifer Lopez and many more.

They’ve taken place across the country in an effort to encourage voters to cast their ballots for the Nov. 5 election.
