In her first X post, Azealia Banks wrote on X:
"Ok I think it's time everyone who voted for Trump admit that we made a f**king mess."
In a subsequent post, the Harlem rapper said that it has been "an absolute disaster." She also shared a meme of Gayle King to show how she and other "Trump supporters" are feeling right now.

She's been vocal about supporting Trump for several years, and in 2016, she celebrated Trump beating the "liberal media," which she called at the time "refreshing and inspiring." She also called Donald Trump her "F**KING HERO."
In Trump's second bid for the Oval Office, Azealia Banks famously attended his rally in Florida last year.

Azealia Banks calls Donald Trump "petty and vindictive"
Besides showing regret over voting for Donald Trump during the latest Presidential election, Azealia Banks doubled down on her criticism of the US president. In a separate post on X on Wednesday, April 16, she admitted that while she can't blame Trump for being "petty and vindictive," his actions have affected the well-being and livelihood of a lot of Americans.

"He's so petty and vindictive rn. Tbh, rightfully so, but not when the wellbeing and livelihood of billions of people - damn near the entire world lay in ur hands."
The Broke With Expensive Taste artist also shared her own two cents about how the US president can chill out, further saying:
"Someone needs to get him a cute little lorazepam Rex and a high grade ashwaganda supplement because it can't happen like this."
Azealia Banks continued her critique of Donald Trump in the same post, further writing:
"Nobody on earth is afraid of crazy old white man anger. Old white men need to reinvent the archetype because it's too predictable. Like China is just DUNKING on everyone right now."
