What happened when Cardi B took the stage?

Cardi B entered the stage to loud cheers from the audience, but paused for a few seconds and looked at the teleprompter. Then she started taking off her gloves and said, “One second, guys. One second!” After another awkward few seconds of pausing on stage, she managed to say, “Okay. So I'm not taking the call lightly,” Cardi B tried to speak again and continued, “I'm sorry guys, I'm a little nervous.” . I'm a little nervous guys, I've been waiting for this moment my whole life.

She then began to look around, seemingly to signal her team to help. She continued to respond to the audience, “I need patience here, patience, where are you girl?” I need patience here!” She repeatedly shouted, “Are we ready to make history?” Finally, a woman from her team handed it to her Telephone from which she began to give her speech.

What Cardi B said

Cardi B then said she had no plans to vote this year before Harris joined the presidential campaign. Before President Joe Biden withdrew as a presidential candidate, Cardi announced that she would not vote in the upcoming election and criticized the current administration for sending aid to, as she called it, “fund two wars.”

She said: “I had no faith in any candidate until she joined the race and said the things I wanted to hear – things I want to see next in this country.” I believe in every word that comes out of her mouth comes; She is passionate, she is compassionate, she shows empathy and most of all she has no illusions.”
