“I don’t know, you know, I’ma always go with Bernie,” she told Variety. “Bernie don’t say things to be cool. Like, there’s pictures of him being an activist from a very, very, very long time.”
The rapper, who has 42.8 million followers on Instagram and 5.6 million followers on Twitter, has been vocal about her political views.
Last fall, she performed at a New York City bar mitzvah for around half a million dollars.
