Minaj opened up about her allyship with Trump during a February appearance on "The Katie Miller Podcast."

"When I saw how he was being treated over and over and over, I just couldn't handle it," Minaj told Katie Miller, the wife of top White House aide Stephen Miller.

"I felt that … a lot of that bullying and the smear campaigns and all of the lying, I felt that that had been done to me for so many years," Minaj told Miller. "And I was watching it in real time happen to someone else, and I didn't think he deserved it."
