The mother of 1-year-old Kulture also took the time to respond to a critic who lambasted her for complaining about paying taxes, but then endorsing Sanders who will raise taxes on the rich to fund his extreme socialism.
At that, the 26-year-old clarified that she doesnt mind paying taxes as long as she sees where that money is going. She also added that its sad taxes are so high but health care and college education arent subsidized.
I dont mind paying taxes if I see on what am I paying my taxes on.Its sad that we pay so much taxes yet we dont have free college education neither free healthcare . https://t.co/i4Zi4eSYgP

Cardi Bs political prowess has been clear to the public since the 2016 race when she made a video of herself imploring fans to vote for Daddy Bernie, bitch.
Since then, shes spoken at length in interviews about her love of FDR and political science.
Im obsessed with presidents. Im obsessed to know how the system works, she told GQ in 2018.
Earlier this year, the rapper told Teen Vogue shed be supporting Sanders again in the upcoming 2020 race.
Imma always go with Bernie, she said. This is the thing, right? Bernie dont say things to be cool. Like, theres pictures of him being an activist from a very, very, very long time [ago].
