Cardi B Claims The Economy Sex Workers Has Lowering Rates

Feb 2, 2025; Los Angeles, CA, USA; Cardi B at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards at Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles on Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025.

Cardi B went off in a fiery rant aimed at Donald Trump and his supporters during the Instagram livestream. Cardi B says that the economy under Donald Trump has gotten so bad that sex workers are having to lower their rates. She vented about the state of the country during a livestream on Instagram, over the weekend.

“You know how you know that the economy is bad? Because not even the prostitutes is getting fly. Where have you seen a hoe with a good Chanel bag?” she said. “Bitches was buying Chanel bags like they was f*cking female rappers. Where have you seen a bitch with a chain with her name on it? Huh? … Where have you seen a bitch pop out with a f*cking good Birkin? Even the prostitutes going through it. The hoes was selling p*ssy for $10,000. Now the bitches is going for $2,500. ‘Cause the f*cking economy is bad.”

From there, she turned her attention to Donald Trump and his supporters. “Donald Trump was never for y’all poor motherf*ckers,” she said. “Donald Trump was never for the poor people. For the white poors, for the Black poors, for the Spanish poors, for the Asians, for the Indians… He don’t give a f*ck about none of y’all motherfuckers. When I talk about poor, I’m not only talking about poor people that’s under the poverty line. To him, even millionaires are poor! He don’t give a f*ck about the millionaires like me, neither!”

Cardi concluded by bringing up a viral clip of her mispronouncing Trump’s name. “These are the type of things I was trying to tell y’all about when I was talking about the Trump administration… But all y’all cared about was me saying ‘Shrump,’” she said.

It’s far from the first time Cardi has spoken about the political climate. She previously endorsed Kamala Harris during the 2024 Presidential Election, even speaking at one of her rallies.

Earlier this month, she blasted the Donald Trump administration for cutting $186 billion from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.
