50 Cent previously endorsed Trump, and walked it back a week later, saying “F**k Donald Trump.” Now, it seems 50’s move to endorse the current president has other rappers following his lead, as Lil Pump took to Instagram to endorse Trump as well.
Via Instagram, Lil Pump posted a photoshopped image of himself shaking hands with Donald Trump. The caption on the post said “THE DAY I MET TRUMP #trump202022020.” On his IG stories, Lil Pump doubled down on his endorsement, using Joe Biden’s tax proposal as a reason for his co-sign to Trump.
Pump said “All I gotta say is Trump 2020, b***h. F**k I look like paying an extra 33 [percent] in tax for Biden, b***h a** n***a? F**k Sleepy Joe, n***a. Trump 2020, b***h.”
No one on Twitter was happy with Pump’s endorsement of Trump.

“Lil Pump supports Trump”
Any sane person who knows he’s clout baiting: https://t.co/JiU4n22i1M

Back in 2016, before Pump released his breakout hit 2017 “Gucci Gang”—and probably before he was making the kind of money he makes now—the rapper tweeted, “FUCK DONALD TRUMP” the day after the election.
