Two weeks ago, the White House’s new press secretary Katie Zacharia did not even last one full Scaramucci in the role. She was immediately outed as a chronic liar over whether she had passed the bar. Zacharia’s quick hiring and firing highlighted how the Trump White House has consistent problems finding staffers who could pass a simple background check. Speaking of, it looks like people within the Trump White House/Cheesecake Factory suggested Nicki Minaj for the role as press secretary. Earlier this year, Minaj went full MAGA, even appearing at some bizarre events alongside Trump. She’s currently on the campaign trail with him now, and Trump is talking about her big beautiful BBL.
Nicki Minaj has received some informal nominations to be the next White House press secretary … with 2 staffers glowingly floating her name as a replacement after Katie Zacharia was fired.
Sharing a video of Nicki Minaj lauding President Donald Trump’s international politics on Air Force One … White House Communications Director Steven Cheung wrote … “Ladies and gentlemen, I think we may have found the new White House Press Secretary!”
The White House’s X account responded with an “eyeballs” emoji … before Trump advisor Alex Bruesewitz replied … “Hey Barbz, what do we think about this idea??”
Even Nicki herself responded to the idea … sharing an American flag and grinning face with sweat emojis … you know, the one that symbolizes nervous laughter.
Of course, it’s unclear if they’re seriously considering her for the role — but hey, stranger things have happened! As for Nicki … the rapper seemed more focused on her experience flying in Air Force One.
Taking to X herself … she shared a video of her in awe as she panned to show the airplane’s huge interior.
For what it’s worth, Nicki is not an American citizen. She cannot vote in American elections. Neither can her husband, but that’s because he’s a felon who has to register through Megan’s Law. Of course, non-Americans can work at the White House. But I suspect Nicki would out-crazy all of them and she wouldn’t even last a full Zacharia (four days on the job).

That untalented person really is grasping at straws.
No, please. Let her do it. Let them continue to humiliate themselves with their incompetency.
I know! I’d love to see her as Press Secretary. Let the games begin.
Totally agree, let’s do this. At this point can she actually be worse than the last woman?
She’d be great to see! She could throw shoes at the reporters at press briefings if she didn’t like the questions!
The SNL sketches write themselves…
I want it to happen so that it shows even more this President is totes okay with rape and murder. WTF are they even thinking?
That would be funny for about two minutes and then it would just be incredibly embarassing.
As hilarious (and devastating) as this would be, I doubt they’d actually give the position to a woman of colour. Even a properly qualified and respected woman of colour.
No, they wouldn’t give it to a properly qualified, competent Black woman. But they may give it to an incompetent 🤡 like Nicki Minaj just to try to make a point about DEI. They are completely clueless that all the white male 🤡s currently running us into the ground actually underscore the necessity of DEI in hiring practices.
He’d love it because she’d turn her followers loose on his foes and doxx then.
I’m here for this! 🍿
She needs to leave the polar bear costume at Spirit.🐻❄️
I’m so stressed right now. Everyone who hasn’t retired yet is so weird in politics right now…
Two of his staff members suggested it, just to fake-show that they WILL (potentially) hire Black people, but only if they are traitors to their race and just about everyone else in this country. MAGA is clearly against diversity. Only moronic white men and Mar-a-Lago face women who can and will be fired almost immediately.
I am so glad I never liked Nicki and always thought she was trash, refused to listen to her music and thought from the start of her fame she had a dark aura.
Not only is she married to a convicted sexual predator she stood by and advocated for her convicted paedophile brother! And she’s not black Nicki would say that herself. She is nasty and would fit right in with The Trump trash administration.
