Rap star Kanye West (Ye) has admitted that he still supports former US President Donald Trump.Â
Kanye West Still Supports Donald Trump Because He Likes ‘Trump Hotels And The Saxophones In The Lobby’
Kanye, for his part, has made no secret over his admiration for Donald. After all, during his election and subsequent presidency, Kanye was spotted wearing the infamous red ‘Make America Great Again’ caps, which had encapsulated Donald’s election campaign.
Such a stance made the rapper receive huge backlash, given that he had personally gone to the White House in order to meet him. And yet, even though Donald may no longer be within the White House, Kanye came out to show that he still holds Donald in high regard.
In an interview on the ‘Drink Champs‘ podcast, Kanye said: “I’ve still got a red hat on today. I’ll let y’all know that. I might not got it on [at the moment], but I’ll let y’all know where I stand.”Â
This begs the question, why would Kanye put his support behind Donald? This is especially true given that Donald has been accused of engaging in discriminatory behaviour.
And yet, Kanye wanted to show the world that he was interested in uniting the different factions in American rather than creating a situation where it was Donald against the rest of the country.
He added: “One of the main reasons I wore the red hat as a protest to the segregation of votes in the Black community. Also, other than the fact that I like Trump hotels and the saxophones in the lobby.”
Nevertheless, not everyone has been left impressed by Kanye’s endorsement of Donald. Another rapper, by the name of Talib Kweli, has reportedly stated how he and Kanye have fallen out because he had informed Kanye that he disapproved of his support for Donald.
Regardless of whether that is true or not, Kanye has shown that he is not going to have his views influenced. After all, he even made the decision to run for President when the majority of people were criticising him for it.Â
Kanye has shown that he is loyal towards Donald, but the question is will that last? If you liked reading this article, then check out our other features on the Daily Soap Dish.
