Kanye West, husband of reality TV star Kim Kardashian, says he would have voted for Mr. Donald Trump for president.
“I told y’all I didn’t vote, right?” Kanye said, standing on the floating stage he uses on his Saint Pablo tour. “But if I would’ve voted, I would’ve voted for Trump.”
Of course, Kanye faced loud boos from the concert goers, likely a younger and more ethnically diverse group than the Trump crowd. But not to worry, Kanye laid down this gem of wisdom.
“There’s nonpolitical methods to speaking that I like, that I feel were very futuristic. And that style, and that method of communication, has proven that it can beat a politically correct way of communication. And I fuck with that,” West said at the concert. He bemoaned that he had been told that he should avoid praising Trump because he is a celebrity, telling the crowd that Trump’s rhetorical style was not simply “entertaining—I actually think that his approach was absolutely genius, because it fucking worked.”
He urged African-Americans to “stop focusing on racism” because “this world is racist, okay?”
Pure genius… The world is full of racism, so shut the fuck up and appreciate the genius of those who exploit it. Yo Kanye, I’m really happy for you, and imma let you finish, but President Obama was right when he called you a jackass.
