After targeted searches for campaign endorsements and political appearances, I found no reliable public source-backed endorsement by Kei Kamara of Donald Trump or a MAGA candidate, and no reliable source-backed endorsement of anti-Trump candidates either.
Notes: Negative finding; neutral under project rules.

Targeted search used to identify any public endorsement coverage.

As a former refugee from Sierra Leone, Kamara has spoken publicly about the importance of refugee resettlement programs and has expressed concern over restrictive immigration policies, which were central to the Trump administration's agenda.
Personal advocacy for refugee rights directly counters the 'America First' and restrictive immigration stances of the MAGA movement.
