Amber Rose sparks anger among fans for supporting Donald Trump's plan to impose death penalty on drug dealers while fearing Kamala will “giggle” in office

Since 2018, Donald Trump has been proposing the introduction of the death penalty for drug dealers and gang members, putting them in the same league as child molesters, sex traffickers and cop killers. In his opinion, this plan will not only make America great again, but also safe again. Speaking to his supporters in Glendale, Arizona on Friday, he also said that anyone who shoots a police officer should receive “the death penalty with a faster trial.”

One of his supporters, Amber Rose, used social media to convince her 24.2 million followers to vote for the former president in the upcoming presidential election, portraying him as someone who would keep the country safe with his tough-on-crime policies.

Rose, who has a child with Crip rapper Wiz Khalifah through her boyfriend and labelmate Chevy Woods, captioned a video of Trump's speech, “Don't you want a better America for us and our children???? How can you not vote for this man?!”

She continued her support by saying, “AMERICA NEEDS HIM!!! We are devastated right now. If giggling Kamala gets into office, the next four years will be sad, depressing, murderous and broke.”

Numerous critics immediately followed suit, mocking her for her blind support of Trump and her lack of political understanding.

One of his supporters questioned one of his measures and wrote: “Death penalty for drug dealers? Nonsense!!”

Another commented: “So the death penalty is being imposed on big pharma? For all employees, salespeople or just the executives? Please clarify this.”

A third follower noted: “Is this supposed to make us want to vote for him? For me it was the opposite.”

Others turned their attention to Trump's plan to deal with sex traffickers, noting that their candidate was on the verge of prison himself.

“He and Epstein were friends. Right?! Hello, girls!!,” recalled one comment.

Others noted that Trump's tough stance on crime seemed hypocritical given his legal troubles – including a sexual assault conviction in the E. Jean Carroll case – and wrote: “Who tells him he has the death penalty for sexual assault?”

In Amber Rose's comments section, several people laughed at the irony of Trump's crackdown on crime when his 34 convictions make him a criminal himself.

“Felon reading the charges of a felon…so funny and weird,” one person wrote.

One person referred to his comment that police officers are granted “full immunity” for any crimes they may have committed while on duty, asking: “What about law enforcement if they kill us for no reason!???”

Thousands of people participated in the debate, with some expressing frustration with Rose's support for Trump, while others criticized Vice President Kamala Harris' record on criminal justice.

Some falsely claimed, “Kamala put black men in prison and laughed about it.”

Some pointed out inconsistencies in Trump's immigration policies. One commenter noted, “Remember, wasn't he the one who stopped the bipartisan border bill??”

Others still laughed at her and said, “Girl, you're going to end up on the wrong side of history. For your own sake… give it up!!!”

Others, however, criticized him harshly for taking a tough stance on immigration policy while urging his Republican colleagues in Congress not to pass immigration reform legislation.

As comments continued to pour in, some suggested that Rose's support for Trump was more about getting attention on social media than about genuinely supporting his program.

“Can someone please take that phone away from her? Amber, at this point you just want attention sweetie,” one user wrote.

Rose's endorsement of Trump, whom she described as an “alpha male,” came weeks before the Republican National Convention. She was later invited to speak, possibly to attract young and minority voters.

The founder of Slut Walk, who first became known as the girlfriend of Kanye West and later as the partner of Wiz Khalifa, has now turned to rap and is promoting Trump together with rapper Forgiato Blow, who calls himself the “Mayor of Magaville”.

Rose has become one of Trump's most vocal supporters in the city, even taking swipes at the Democratic National Committee and criticizing supporters of Vice President Harris.
