Nicki Minaj<\/a> has no apologies for loving President Trump<\/a> … but don’t expect her to turn her next tour into a political rally.<\/p>\n

Nicki joined Laura Ingraham<\/a> on Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” Friday alongside Small Business Administration head Kelly Loeffler to discuss the “Million-Dollar Pitch Competition” … and the conversation quickly turned to her relationship with Trump.<\/p>\n

Asked what she says to critics of their partnership, Nicki’s answer was blunt — “Absolutely nothing.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

She said she’s honored to work with the administration and called Trump smart, fun, and grounded … adding he’s easy to connect with and makes people feel heard.<\/p>\n

“I just love him,” Nicki said, insisting she won’t make excuses for it.<\/p>\n

She also agreed with Ingraham that politics don’t belong in her concerts … saying her shows are about having fun, making memories and appreciating life — not lecturing the crowd.<\/p>\n

Nicki didn’t mention Macklemore<\/a>, but her stance comes amid controversy<\/a> over his pro-Palestine comments onstage, which sparked backlash during his run with Ed Sheeran<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As TMZ previously reported, Nicki was tapped<\/a> to judge Trump’s small-business competition, which gives five companies a share of $1 million.<\/p>\n

As for when the Barbz can expect her back on tour, Nicki says she’ll hit the road after presenting them with her next body of work — whenever that may be.<\/p>\n

For now, she says she’s in her “businesswoman era.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nicki Minaj on President Trump I Love Him, No Apologies!!!
