Let’s talk about how Kanye West loves Donald Trump & has a signed MAGA hat
April 26, 2018
It’s funny and sad how quickly stories about Kanye West can turn. A week ago, we were like “yay, thank God Kanye is back on Twitter!” Now we’re like “holy sh-t I forgot how exhausting he is, someone please shut him down again.” As we’ve previously discussed, Kanye seems to be in the midst of some kind of breakdown. Again. Same as 2016. He’s been on Twitter, playing footsie with Deplorables for days, and then on Wednesday, sh-t hit the fan when Kanye went all-in on Donald Trump and even proudly displayed his signed MAGA hat.
All of which made the Deplorables screech, “SEE? The Left hates black people because they’re trying to shut down Kanye West’s free speech, Jesus Walks y’all make Yeezy Great Again” or whatever. To be clear, Kanye has every right to his own political beliefs, his own thoughts, and he’s free to say whatever. Just as everyone else is free to say “Good God, Kanye, I can’t even pretend to care about you at this point.” Donald Trump is quite literally a white supremacist. Trump is literally using ICE to rip apart families and he wants to throw people in jail for the crime of brown and black skin. It’s not okay. This isn’t a case where “both sides have some good.” Trump is a fascist and he’s destroying this country. It’s not about love.
And Kim Kardashian had A LOT to say on Twitter too. I’m not going to embed this sh-t, so here’s the text:
To the media trying to demonize my husband let me just say this… your commentary on Kanye being erratic & his tweets being disturbing is actually scary. So quick to label him as having mental health issues for just being himself when he has always been expressive is not fair. Yesterday it was announced that Kanye had parted ways with some business people and media outlets made this about Kanye’s mental health. Rather than just a simple business decision. So I’m glad he tweeted about the state of his company and all of the exciting things happening
He’s a free thinker, is that not allowed in America? Because some of his ideas differ from yours you have to throw in the mental health card? That’s just not fair. He’s actually out of the sunken place when he’s being himself which is very expressive. Now when he spoke out about Trump… Most people (including myself) have very different feelings & opinions about this. But this is HIS opinion. I believe in people being able to have their own opinions,even if really different from mine. He never said he agrees with his politics.
Kanye will never run in the race of popular opinion and we know that and that’s why I love him and respect him and in a few years when someone else says the same exact thing but they aren’t labeled the way he is and you will all praise them! Kanye is years ahead of his time. Mental Health is no joke and the media needs to stop spitting that out so casually. Bottom line.

Kim, we’re not being “casual,” we truly believe that your husband is having some kind of breakdown and we also believe that there are many medications which might help him be less… manic. Sis, I know you’re worried about your brand and your family, but can you not with this bulls–t?
Anyway, as I said, the Deplorables have been picking up on all of this. Donald Trump, Ivanka Trump and Don Trump Jr. all tweeted at Kanye and Kim. I can’t.
