Kanye never seizes to surprise us with his comments. This time the rapper admitted that he would have voted Trump during a show. Among all the turbulence after Trump’s electoral triumph, Kanye admitted that he would have supported the Republican leader.
At a gig in San Jose for the Saint Pablo Tour, the hip-hop star said he would’ve voted for Donald Trump in case he had actually voted, but he didn’t. We’re all shocked, WTF.
Kanye just being Kanye.
“I told you I didn’t vote,” Kanye told a stunned audience. “But if I voted, I would have voted on Trump.” And that was not it, during the concert, the rapper stopped several times and got seriously political.
People tweeted all about it in the gig.
Yep, we’re all confused, it seems everybody is. The reactions were various, there were cheers but also boos.
Political rants
Kanye explained how he considers Trump a genius and that he loves the newly elected president approach, he’s really fond for Trump’s “Wall”. And as if this wasn’t crazy enough. Prepare to get shocked: Kanye also addressed the issue of racism in America, and shockingly urged black people to stop focusing on it.
“Stop focusing on racism.”
He yelled at the crowd. And then argued that his support for Trump didn’t mean he didn’t support women’s rights or the Black Lives Matter movement.
“Kanye 2020.”
During his political momentum, he also reiterated his plans to run for the White House in 2020, saying he will become “a different kind of president.” The first time he talked about this was during his acceptance speech in the 2015’s VMA, when he said he’ll run for Presidency in 2020.
