The internet was left perplexed when rapper Meek Mill, also known as Robert Williams, seemingly expressed support for former President Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign on social media. Meek Mill shared a video featuring Vivek Ramaswamy, a former GOP presidential candidate who spoke at a Trump rally in New Hampshire. Ramaswamy withdrew from the race and endorsed Trump following the Iowa caucuses on Monday.
Williams posted, “Wait til yall see who the black people in poverty voting for!!!!”

It wouldn’t be the inaugural occasion for a renowned rapper to endorse the 45th president if Williams is truly backing Trump’s campaign for the presidency.
The New York Post has reported that since 2016, Trump has garnered support from notable figures like Lil Wayne, Kanye West, Ice Cube, and Chief Keef. Notably, rapper Lil Pump even made an appearance at a Trump rally in 2020, where he rallied the crowd at the University of Arizona with a pro-Trump chant.
