“This sound like Cardi with the…” CLAPBACK!
Over the last week or so, after posting her viral video about the government shutdown, Cardi B has been very vocal from a political standpoint. Cardi made it clear where she stood about government workers having to work without pay saying “This is really serious bro.”
THEN we all saw her little twitter exchange with Tomi Lahren, who basically told Cardi she didn’t know what she was talking about and to stay in her own lane. Cardi with the clapback (I think this is new new nickname???) responded “Leave me alone. I will dog walk you.” Her response alone led to an increase in people looking up the term “dog walk” on urban dictionary AND accompanying memes, see below:
NOW, conservative Washington, D.C. video columnist, Stephanie Hamill wants the smoke from Cardi, and let’s be clear, SHE GOT IT. Hamill basically commented on the “Twerk” video, and said she felt in the #MeToo era, the video wasn’t promoting the cause for female empowerment.
In the Era of #meToo how exactly does this empower women?
Leftists, @iamcardib , feel free to chime in.

To which Cardi OF COURSE again responded.
It says to women that I can wear and not wear what ever I want. do w.e I want and that NO still means NO. So Stephanie chime in..If I twerk and be half naked does that mean I deserve to get raped and molested ? I want to know what a conservative woman like you thinks 🤔 https://t.co/8UBQQzO6jK

THE BEST PART of all of this, was that Wale, then came to Cardi’s defense. And…we…just…UGH.There was a lot of back and forth but the “Lotus Flowerbomb” singer offered up a list of black women who are pushing the narrative forward, AND gave the definition for empowerment. OK THEN! Checkmate. Check out his tweets below:
