Imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Haha. Not even a trans ADULT would run on that. Normal adults wake up & think they want to see HEALTHY, SAFE, HAPPY kids.

Breitbart reports:
Rap megastar Nicki Minaj blasted California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) saying he wants to “see trans kids.” The “Super Bass” singer reacted in a series of X posts, telling Newsom, “It’s the end of the road for you.”
“Oh Gavvy pooh, it only gets worse from here for you, buddy. It’s the end of the road for you, my love,” Minaj declared in a Friday X post, sharing an image of the Chucky character from the Child’s Play film franchise.
Oh Gavvy pooh, it only gets worse from here for you, buddy.
It’s the end of the road for you, my love.

“Get on the nearest jet ski & let that beautiful hair blow in the wind. It will make you happier than this race that you will not win. Enjoy life. Peace,” the “Starships” singer added.
In a follow-up X post, Minaj wrote, “Gavin is the cute boy who got everything handed to him b/c of how cute & sexy & hot & smoking he was. Oohhh look @’m. Sitting there in that suit with the sneakers on.”

In a third post, the “Anaconda” singer offered more context to her previous comments, proclaiming, “Imagine being the guy running on wanting to see trans kids. Haha. Not even a trans ADULT would run on that.”
Minaj’s blunt reaction reflects a growing public unease with leaders who blur moral boundaries involving children. As more voices speak up, the cultural tide appears to be shifting back toward common sense, parental instincts, and protecting the most vulnerable among us.
