Rapper Cardi B, fresh off her post-election meltdown where she trashed America as ghetto and dusty while bizarrely blaming Trump voters for hurricanes hitting her favored blue states, is now meddling in Texas politics. In a video endorsement, the WAP hitmaker is rallying her followers to prop up Rep. Jasmine Crockett in the Democrat U.S. Senate primary, just as early voting wraps up. Crockett, the firebrand congresswoman known for her viral bleach blonde bad-built butch body tirade against Republicans, is pushing hard for stricter gun control nationwide—think universal background checks, red flag laws, and assault weapon bans that would gut the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Texans. Cardi B’s star power might juice turnout among urban Dems in a state that’s historically trounced liberal challengers, but her hurricane-cursing hypocrisy lands especially flat in hurricane-battered Texas, where folks know real resilience comes from self-reliance, not coastal celebrity rants.
For the 2A community, this is a flashing red light on the ballot box battlefield. Crockett isn’t just another progressive; she’s a Ted Cruz antagonist who’s vowed to fight like hell against NRA-backed policies, co-sponsoring bills like the Assault Weapons Ban of 2023 that target AR-15s and standard-capacity magazines. Cardi’s endorsement amplifies Crockett’s profile in a primary where low turnout could let a more extreme anti-gun candidate slip through, potentially setting up a general election slugfest in ruby-red Texas. Imagine the national ripple: a Crockett Senate run could drag gun rights into the spotlight, forcing 2A advocates to pour resources into defending Ted Cruz or whoever emerges as the GOP bulwark. It’s a reminder that pop culture endorsements from anti-America elites like Cardi aren’t just noise—they’re targeted strikes on our constitutional carry culture in a state that’s expanded permitless carry under Gov. Abbott.
The irony? Texas voters, armed and hurricane-hardened, have repeatedly rejected this coastal claptrap at the polls, turning out gun-grabbers like Beto O’Rourke in 2022. Cardi’s plea might fire up her fanbase, but it risks backfiring by highlighting how out-of-touch these endorsements are with real Texans who prioritize self-defense over celebrity selfies. 2A patriots, mark your calendars: this primary is ground zero for keeping Texas a fortress against federal overreach. Vote accordingly, and let’s keep the dusty ghetto talk where it belongs—on Cardi B’s playlist, not in the Senate.
