Her original tweet read: “Should I spend 88K for this d**n purse ? Omggg it’s tempting” and fans were quick to slam the artist for her reckless spending.

Twitter users were furious with Cardi, referencing her wealth and privilege while many are starving and suffering from Covid around the world.

One wrote: “It just speaks to your privilege that you could spend that much on a handbag. That’s more than most people make in a year.”

“Donate the money to hungry people. Tweets like this are why we want to eat the rich” another angrily added.

A third wrote more seriously: “People are out here hurting. Can’t buy food or pay their rent, and you are seriously talking about a purse for that kind of money.

“Why not just donate it to your fans. We are the reason you have that money to waste.”

Cardi was quick to clap back, with a series of tweets proving her charitable acts of the past.

She shared photo proof of her donation of a million dollars to Coronavirus aid from earlier this fall, and also highlighted her donation of 20,000 meal supplements to New York area medical staff from back in April.

“If I want to splurge I can without yall asking for handouts like me and my husband don’t do so. Thank you.”

“I will match it and donate to a organization you have donate as well. LETS START NOW!”

She urged her haters to show their own donation receipts, saying: “Any charity or foundation drop your receipts. Under the comment I will match what you donated and match your donation to that same charity or foundation. Lets match energy.”

Cardi’s followers were not forgiving, despite her previous charitable actions
Despite the valiant effort to prove her charitable spirit, Cardi was still not forgiven by fans, as one wrote: “It doesn’t matter how much money you give away, tweeting about buying an $88,000 purse in the midst of a pandemic where people are skipping meals and terrified that they’ll be evicted, is deeply insensitive and unnecessary.

“She chose to tweet it out.”

They even accused her of ‘gaslighting’
The WAP singer clapped back, saying: “Go cry about it. I never seen u tweet about me when I donated a million-dollar twice now you here.

“I didn’t offended no body, didn’t do nothing illegal . Im not going to apologize because I work my ass off and I ask MY FANS! Which ARE MY FRIENDS A QUESTION! Ya want to be hurt so bad.”

Another fan slammed Cardi for “gaslighting” by commenting: “Imagine gaslighting people for being poor during a pandemic? For someone who claims to come from a ‘struggle’ this is an awful mindset to have.

“I hope you never have to experience poverty again because this Cardi, ain’t it.”

Cardi once again trolled back, adding: “Mannn stfu I’m not gaslighting people that going thru poverty I’m addressing the people that always screaming to celebs that they ‘constantly drag’ to donate but never donate themselves.

“I donate all the time no1 say nun now when we talk about spending money we work here ya come.”

After an all out Twitter war, the mother of one decided to apologize to fans, tweeting: “Ok guys I apologize. There you happy ?! I don’t see ya askin trump for a apology when he out here missing COVID meetings to play golf.”

However, in true Cardi form, the hitmaker ended the rant with: “Definitely buying the bag now” and “Sooooooo……do ya want me to show ya the purse ?”

Fans have also shown some heat to the songwriter of late, calling her “selfish” and irresponsible” after she announced that she had “12 kids and 25 adults” at her house for Thanksgiving this year.
