Nicki Minaj fans are taking sides after watching her cozy up to President Trump ... some are sticking by her, and others are dropping her like a bad habit.

The battle of the Barbz played out Thursday on "TMZ Live" when we had a couple supporters join our show and explain why Nicki's embrace of Trump is either a deal-breaker ... or no big deal.

Blair Thompson says he's cutting the cord when it comes to Nicki ... and he tells us why her politics feel like a slap in the face to lots of her longtime supporters who come from diverse backgrounds.

On the other hand, Tre The Entertainer is still all-in when it comes to Nicki ... and it sounds like he's separating the art from the artist. Tre's been a Barb since he was 13, and it seems he's ride-or-die.

Nicki being Trump's biggest supporter looks like it's working out for her ... the Trinidad-born rapper has one of the Trump Gold Cards ... but it's definitely costing her some of her diehard fans -- just not all of them.
