Lately, Mary Mary gospel group singer, Tina Campbell, hasn’t been a fan favorite, due to her recent political confession. Earlier this year, Tina felt the need to reveal she voted for Donald Trump and now, months later, she revealed that she boldly stands by her decision. Of course, her confessions sparked outrage all over social media. Since then, she’s faced backlash from fans and other celebrities. Now, Basketball Wives reality star and actress, Tami Roman, is the latest celeb’ to share her opinion of Tina’s political Trump train.

The Basketball Wives star recently posted a new video on Facebook and her latest ‘Bonnet Chronicles’ discussion was about Tina Campbell. Tami is wondering the same thing other people are wondering: What on earth was, and is, Tina thinking?

“I do respect Tina though because she came out and admitted that she voted for the man, because some of y’all voted for him and you don’t want to be honest about it and admit it’s a sinking ship, but she did,” Tami began.

The Figurative ‘Shackles’:

Tami went on to mention the “shackles.” Of course, we all know its the title of a hit song by Mary Mary. However, when it comes to Trump, many of us also know his “Make America Great Again” mission has seemingly become a subliminal reference to some different “shackles”- the ones African American were subjected to during slavery. Each time Trump mentions his infamous slogan, most Black people can’t help but think about what he really means. By “making America great again,” it seems Trump is focusing on re-establishing the slave era’s presumed ‘superiority’ of White citizens.

Every other day, Trump says something to make his sentiments known one way, or another. Therefore, Tami wants to know how on earth did Tina miss those “shackles”? Tami went on to question Tina Campbell’s definition of “Christian” values. Although the gospel singer claims to have voted for Trump ‘because of his Christian values,’ Tami couldn’t help but think of those suffering in Puerto Rico, when Trump turned a deaf ear to their cries.

“How could she miss the shackles, chile? ‘Cause that’s how I feel with Donald Trump in office,” Tami said. “They said she said, ‘She related to his good Christian values.’ But I say, sis, Puerto Rico been sitting in the dark for the past week with no water and no food. What’s God-like and Christian-like about that?”

Tina, Tina, Tina…:

Tami’s clap back comes days after Tina’s confession. As we previously reported, during a recent chat with The Root, Tina opened up and explained why she’s supporting Trump. “I was faced with two presidential candidates that I really did not approve of,” she said. “And so I had to find something, a commonality with one of them, that would make me feel like if I have to vote, I should utilize my right to vote. Since I don’t prefer either of them, what can I find that would make me vote? And some of Donald Trump’s views on Christianity, honestly, is what caused me to vote for him.”

With the way things are goin’ for Trump, Tina will probably end up having ‘buyer’s remorse,’ just like many other Trump supporters are starting to admit.
