Over the past couple of years, ‘Ye has seemingly alienated (and infuriated) some of his fans by aligning himself with Trump.
Late last month, Kanye appeared on Saturday Night Livesporting a MAGA hat. After the show ended, he proceeded to go on a pro-Trump rant. Longtime SNL actor Kenan Thompson said it was like ‘Ye was holding the cast “hostage.”
Shortly after firing off some inflammatory tweets about abolishing the 13th amendment and going on TMZ Live to proclaim “alien ‘Ye” is going to Africa to finish Yandhi, he deleted his Instagram and Twitter accounts.
