While Minaj has yet to confirm or deny whether she intended to come out in favor of the GOP nominee, many listeners are lashing out via Twitter and some are even making death threats on the polarizing female emcee.

The move, whether or not she means it, has caused a seemingly endless flow of insults to the rapper.
