Azealia Banks took to Instagram to reveal that she feels vindicated following the election results. The star, who first endorsed Trump back in February, wrote, “First off, I would like to apologize to Donald Trump for all the stupid jokes I made. Secondly, I would like to apologize for all the other times I was dumb enough to let the liberal media sway my opinion of you. Thirdly I’m fu**ing proud as F**K of you. One for being a gemini, two for being from NYC, three for winning the presidency and four for beating the media.
She continued, “I am TRULY inspired by this and feel deep amounts of vindication. Thanks for letting me know that I’m not crazy (even though I fronted a few times) liberals run hollywood and it’s been a COLD WORLD OUT HERE FOR ME AS A TRUMP SUPPORTER. Best of luck on everything and thanks again.”
