Among the reasons listed on the petition, which has gained more than 60,000 signatures, as to why she should be deported were her allegedly harassing the Carters (Beyoncé and Jay-dZ) and being married to Kenneth Petty.
The petition creator, "Pedonika Minaj", wrote in its description that the rapper is "currently spiraling out of control and seems to be experiencing psychosis."
Minaj’s petition comes days after she made a surprise appearance at Turning Point USA, where she made clear how much she supports President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance.
