The Trump Gold Card is linked to a new immigration initiative introduced under the Trump administration, which allows wealthy foreign nationals to secure permanent residency and eventual citizenship in exchange for a minimum contribution of about $1 million to the US government, alongside processing fees.
In a follow-up post, the Trinidad-born artist suggested that her citizenship paperwork was being finalized, crediting what she described as strong public support and a petition backing her. However, Minaj claimed her card was issued to her “free of charge.”
Nicki Minaj, who has lived in the United States for several years, had previously stated that she was a lawful permanent resident but not yet a US citizen.
Her announcement comes shortly after she openly endorsed President Trump, describing herself as one of his vocal supporters and defending his policies amid criticism online.
The development has since sparked widespread reactions and debate across social media platforms, with fans and critics weighing in on both her political stance and her reported citizenship process.
