What did Azealia Banks say? Singer’s Trump Epstein Files tweet goes viral and sparks outrage online

Azealia Banks recently tweeted in support of Donald Trump, who has been rumored to have had intimate relationships with minors, stating that engaging with minors who are fourteen years old should not be frowned upon, as it was a fairly common practice until the 1990s. According to reports, Banks, who is known for her stances on different issues, took to X (formerly Twitter) on 17 July to share her opinion on the matter, thus sparking outrage. A part of her tweet read:

"Ok in Donald Trumps defense - f*cking 14 year old girls was really only made a social taboo in the 1990’s. My grandmother was born in 1927 and had her first child when she was 12. Teenage pregnancy only become frowned upon with the rise of Jerry Springer and I also can be honest about the fact that I was old enough to choose, seduce and decide to fuck grown ass men when I was 15."

Azealia Banks has a long history of making controversial statements. Previously, she was banned from X (formerly Twitter) several times, before her account was finally reinstated in 2016 after Elon Musk acquired the social media platform.

More about Azealia Banks' recent tweet, as her controversial tweet about the Trump Epstein files sparks outrage

Azealia Banks has previously defended Donald Trump, who is rumored to have his name on Epstein's files. According to reports, Trump is one of the several big names who are allegedly on the list, although none of it has ever been proven. In her recent tweet, the "Liquorice" singer, who had previously supported Donald Trump during the 2016 elections, further added in her tweet:

"I really don’t get why women are fronting like they weren’t fucking 40 year olds at 15 like come on now. I’m honestly not surprised or mad at Trump for getting some 15 year old p*ssy because those were the times. Goodnight USA for f*cking ever. Now … if he was f*cking a TEN YEAR OLD???? …. We have a problem. But if the girls were 13+, - who cares move on."

In her tweet, she further alleges that one should not care about the Epstein files and move on from discussing them. She wrote:

"GOODNESS GRACIOUS, FORGET ABOUT THE EPSTEIN FILES WHO CARES."

According to Just Jared, Banks had also endorsed Trump in 2024 but later revealed, just a day before the elections, that she had voted for Kamala Harris. Once the election results were revealed, she confessed to having previously lied about who she had voted for.
