Nicki Minaj marked Election Day with a seemingly AI-created graphic of horror movie icon Chucky in a pink suit with a pin that reads: “Vote Red.” The Republican messaging was hardly a surprise given the rapper has closely aligned herself with Donald Trump and his MAGA fanbase in recent months, but one person who staunchly opposed to her X post was “Chucky” franchise creator Don Mancini.

“IMPOSTER,” Mancini replied in all caps to Minaj’s use of his killer doll (via Rolling Stone). “CHUCKY IS PART OF THE BLUE WAVE THAT WILL WASH AWAY ALL THE CORRUPTION.”
