Cardi B’s reaction echoes other public figures’ thoughts as they voiced their disappointment online. Lili Reinhart, a fellow Harris supporter, shared a post on X (formerly Twitter), “I cannot fathom the feeling of the women who came forward about their sexual assault at the hands of Trump. Seeing millions of people vote for their abuser. My heart absolutely breaks for these women.” Singer Paloma Faith expressed similar sentiments on her Instagram Story, posting, “Oh great he’s back. Goodbye women’s rights, goodbye liberalism.”
While many celebrities showed support for Harris, Trump’s win prompted mixed reactions. Cardi B’s response reflects a broader reaction among Harris supporters in the entertainment industry, marking a divided sentiment in the aftermath of the election.
