I posted earlier this year on a kanye article “Kanye for president”… Maybe he really read my post… maybe not, either way I can’t wait to see what he really would have to say about politics and if he can actually be on tv sober through out the whole race.
Shoot- I laugh about ti but it would be nice to have a president that doesn’t lie AT ALL and tells you what’s on his mind lol
U mean like Donald trump?
What an embarrassment.
He can’t be any worse than anyone else who’s running. I’ll vote for him
hahaha kanye is a god
