Kanye West has been laying relatively low since his questionable interview on TMZ Live and wild Twitter outbursts last year. But evidently, he’ll still talk to a selected few.
This time, the reclusive artist sat down for an interview with Wall Street Journal Magazine and, once again, reaffirmed his devotion to Donald Trump.
The article, called “The Creation & Myth of Kanye West,” is the publication’s most recent cover story. The writer notes Kanye isn’t registered to vote nor does he “follow politics.” Nonetheless, he’s a huge Trump supporter.
“I’m a black guy with a red [MAGA] hat, can you imagine?” he said. “It reminded me of how I felt as a black guy before I was famous, when I would walk in a restaurant and people would look at you like you were going to steal something. ‘This is your place, Ye, don’t talk about apparel. This is your place, Ye, you’re black, so you’re a Democrat.'”
Ye’s sentiments echo ones he’s made in the past. He’s praised the current POTUS multiple times since he was voted into office in 2016.
In October 2018, Ye went to the White House where he held an awkward meeting with Trump and doubled down on his suggestion to “abolish” the 13th Amendment — something he initially said in the aforementioned TMZ Live interview.
Rocking his red “‘Make America Great Again,” he told Trump, “It’s more important than any specific deal that we bring jobs into America and that we provide a transition with mental health and the Amer-I-Can education curriculum.

“There’s a lot of things affecting our mental health that make us do crazy things that puts us back into that trap door called the 13th Amendment. I did say say abolish with the hat on because why would you build something with trap door?”
He added the MAGA hat was like his “Superman cape” and insisted liberals need to make Trump “look good,” explaining, “This is our president. He has to be the freshest. The flyest.”

Elsewhere in the WSJ interview, Kanye reveals he’s planning to work on a new album in Mexico this spring and discusses the “feasibility” of making masks to aid in the coronavirus pandemic. Trump, who was impeached earlier this year, is facing criticism for how he’s handling the COVID-19 situation, but Ye evidently doesn’t care.
Who cares? People car way too much about controlling who black people choose to like or dislike. Shit, CNN was calling Kanye and “uneducated negro” for liking Trump, when they go back many year as personal friends. Also, I see why the Kardashian family and Ye like Trump. He will actually hear out their concerns, and has helped free thousands of black inmates. Trump admin has freed far more black convicts than any fo mer administration. The first step act released over 5,000 in its first month, with 93% being black people. Trump has an open ear to the black community, so I say take advantage as Kanye is doing.
The media seems to think black people need to be democrats, or face insults. Little talked about fact: Planned Parenthood Founder Margaret openly wanted to abort “undesirable humans”. She was talking about black babies. Democrats supported that in the 30s/40s then, and they never stopped supporting planned Parenthood. And guess what? OVER 52% OF ALL BLACK BABIES ARE ABORTED! The black American demographic would at minimum make up 26% of America today, instead of 13.5% if it weren’t for planned Parenthood and democrats. They were fully successful at keeping the black race small. Also, if over half of black babies are aborted, let’s pretend they weren’t.. Black America would likely be over 30%, as if you doubled the black population alone, the breeding wold grow in numbers. More black people = far more black babies, so you’d be looking at blacks not being minorities in America. They would be a third or more if America. I am a far right republican. I’m not racist or bigoted. I have a black girlfriend, I love hiphop, and I love Americans. We aren’t the hate mongers they make us out to be.
You having a black girlfriend and a black Gardner don’t make you any less racist. FOH.
It actually does doe
Fuck off bitch. I don’t need to justify my lifestyle or opinions to you. I know MYSELF that I am no racist. So sick of dumb fucks deeming anyone who is a Conservative to be a racist. Your literally doing EXACTLY what Kanye is annoyed with, aka RACIAL PROFILING.
Kanye can like whomever he chooses to like. Why is this so damn hard for the commie liberals to understand? They can’t control everyone’s way of thinking. Who cares if Kanye likes what he likes. It makes no difference in anyone’s life. Step off and get a f-ing life.
I’m a black republican too, who actually voted for Obama once in 2008, not 2012… He didn’t deliver the “change” he promised. As Jay said below, Trump admin policy has freed more black inmates than any other Admin. The Clinton Admin initiated the 3 strike rules and such thay gave many minor criminal black men life sentences. Trump got rid of that. Yet, JayZ, Snoop, and others who pretend to care for our people supported Clinton, who passed the 90s Crime Bill that locked up a record amount of black men. If u hate Republicans, look at POLICY today, not appearances. Then compare it to Obama or Clinton, or Bush policy. I didn’t like Bush either, but I do like Trump.
Obama and Hillary PRAISED KKK leader Robert Byrd. He was the nation’s oldest living senator who died during Obama years. Look him up. ROBERT BYRD, KKK LEADER / MEMBER, LOVED BY OBAMA, HILLARY, AND DEMOCRATS. They never left the KKK. They control blacks through social welfare programs that punish success, and reward failure. They want u to be dependent on the GOV. They don’t want u to be independent.
Love or hate Kanye, he is a “do-er”. Him n his wife have helped free tons of black prisoners. That’s real positive change. Nothing in life is more important than FREEDOM. How many niggas has Jay-Z or Beyonce helped free? And Ye is literally livin in 4,500 acres. He’s the American dream. I like seeing him repent for being such a bad human for many years to
I dont do politics much but i like kanye more bc he does wwtf he wants and dont gaf about what ppl think including whiny americans
Democrats measure the success of welfare and food stamp programs based on how many people they can get on it. Republicans measure the success of the programs by how many they can get off it. Republicans want u to be independent. Democrats want u to be dependent on the government. That’s the ultimate form of CONTROL
Facts All Day!!!
On a more basic level of understanding, we all aren’t raised from 2 parent households, able body, logic thinking, nice community homes etc. So why the fuck when Democrats want to help people that can’t help themselves, people get upset and frown on the programs that provide assistance? Oh right, because some people take advantage of the system. Which could never happen in big business or big banks… trade places with a poor person and stfu
The problem with the programs you are taking about is that they encourage keeping you down. If you are on welfare, and find an opportunity to have higher wages and hours, and take it, you lose all of your benefits. Many rely on that aid. The second you find success, you are thrown off. So many many people are BORN N RAISED ON WELFARE. I am not agaisnt aiding those in need, and fully support supporting those with true mental and physical disabilities. But able bodied people age 18 to 65 should be given a HAND UP, not a HAND OUT. Too many people live their entire lives on the system. I live in Rochester New York, so I would know… You cannot pretend these programs aren’t creating generations of able bodies yet retarded Americans, who cannot provide for themselves, and will always forever be dependent on the government to feed and house them
And trade places with a poor person? You completely misunderstood my point. I am in favor of helping people, but these programs are designed to keep the poor and minorities at the bottom of the ladder. They encourage failures, punish success. You cannot sit here and tell me that the various government aid programs aren’t designed to keep the poor in their place. Again, I favor hand ups, not hand outs, and obviously favor providing for those who cannot physically or mentally work. I would never leave people for dead, but I would change the way these programs work. I mean Food Stamps or whatever it’s called nowadays account for over 50% of all American soda sales! The most purchased item with EBT is SODA! That’s an issue. EBT should provide healthy food, not trash that kills you. We are creating generations of unhealthy losers.
Is that what fox news tells you? Republicans feed the rich and their companies. Why do companies that made billions get grants while small businesses get loans ? Why are small businesses paying an effective tax rate of 30% or more and amazon pays 0? Why was executive compensation not a long term precondition for receiving a bailout? Find factual answers (NOT OPINIONS) to those questions and you’ll see what the republican party is really about.
Did u just ask why large corporations that account for 83% of our entire countries budget get grants rather than loans? Asking why they get major tax breaks? Pretty obvious why… First off, the bulk of American jobs are by corporations. Second, the world’s most revolutionary inventions are provided by corporate America. If you hate the rich so much, then stop giving them your money. Stop using a smart phone, internet, ect. The rich you hate so much created everything in your life toy rely on a daily basis. Lastly, let’s pretend we had someone like Bernie as president. Let’s pretend he decides to tax the fuck outta corporations. Guess what happens? They leave, forever. It’s a free world. Any corporation is welcome to leave America, and pay ZERO taxes of any kind, lower wages, less quality, ect… If we make America a worse place to do business, then guess what? Our major corporations leave, and the major corporations build America up much more than small business. I am a small business owner, but those who hate on the rich are such fucking hypocrites… I bet you have a big TV, smart phone, computer, multiple streaming services, ect… So quit bitching about the rich getting breaks, because they have contributed much more to the world then your entire family ever will in the next 500+ years put together.
Amazon paid zero INCOME TAX. They still paid BILLIONS in a plethora of other taxes. Why give them a huge break, and not the little guy? Because if u don’t give Amazon a good deal, they leave the country. We saw Amazon leave NYC due to liberal policies, and guess what? They took 25,000 high paying jobs with them, and BILLIONS in economic activity from NYC. Get it? If u don’t understand, then u never will. There is a reason major corporations get breaks. If we do not cater to them, they will leave for Mexico, China, ect. And again, Amazon didn’t pay zero in taxes. Zero in income taxes, while creating hundreds of thousands of jobs, and creating one of the 4 most profitable companies in world history. What would be better for America? If Amazon left because we made a poor environment for them? Or Amazon stays, doesn’t pay income tax, but literally contributed billions to our federal governments treasury through thousands of workers, products, warehouses, ect?
Glad someone said this shit . Good on ya
Damn is Trump dicking Ye down WTF??!?!?!
Man, you shoulda been around for the Obama years… Boondocks knew it! DICK RIDIN, DICK RIDIN, OBAMAAA, OBAMAAA. If u think Ye is dick ridiin Trump, then please look at ppl like Jayz who did free concerts at Clinton rallies, while the Clinton’s are solely responsible for passing the 3 strike rule, which gave minor criminals life sentences, and locked up more black people than at any other point in history.
Look at yall dickriders and cocksuckers givin props to this bitch ass kanye west whatever he does or whatever he says… and yall wonderin why this guy is such a douche and a fuckup SMH ! He can poop and yall will still be sayin his shit doesn’t smell FOH ! Everybody who knows politics a little bit understood a longtime ago how Trump is incompetent. Just the way he handles the pandemic in the country speaks for itself…
You buy the media’s spin. Name one country that has produced more medical equipment, vaccine testing, or possible cures? Please, share!
I don’t agree with what Kayne believes about Trump. I especially think he’s handled the Corona pandemic very badly. But I respect his opinion and he is damn well entitled to it. I’ve more respect for him because he didn’t let people bully him because he had a different opinion. The dudes hating on him are just making Democrats look bad. Let the nigga have his own opinion smh.
Cause Trump is endorsing police brutality by doing nothing ! When I say nothing I mean he does not publicly take a stand against it. He just shut his mouth. That’s why people are getting at Kanye cause as a black man he shouldn’t support and give credit to a president who blatantly doesn’t give a fuck bout minorities rights in this country ! He’s never supported the Republicans when Bush was in the white house ! And he also took a public stand against Bush during the hurricane Katrina in New Orleans. But why is he so broad-minded when it comes to Trump and endorse his agenda ??!! If it is a money matter well it only proves how much a sellout he is since he’s ready to give upon his own community’s fate in this country for some kind of benefit he might get by sitting next to Trump FOH !
name one president that has done ANYTHING for police brutality.. name one president that has done anything for black people.
I aint talkin about the former presidents ! I am talkin about Trump and Kanye endorsing him ! Former presidents didn’t get a tap on their back by some black artist for their lack of action towards the minorities ! WTF is you talkin bout former presidents ?? It’s the current situation between Trump and Kanye (who pretends to stand for black people) that I am talkin about !
He does stand up for black people. He has done things black people have never done. He is telling you to go and get yours instead of waiting for handouts like slaves. They just want your vote. That’s why all they talk about is identity politics. Wake the f up.
Stop dickridin and read again the stupid comment you’ve just posted. I didn’t wait for Kanye West to wake the fuck up and get mine. Many black leaders before him said that and set the example without associating themselves with racist fuckers like Donald Trump. To name a few : Muhammad Ali, Guion Bluford, Thurgood Marshall, Jackie Robinson, etc are among the people who actually change something for the greater good of the black community. I didn’t wait for a goddamn bipolar self egocentric asshole like Kanye West who married a white Armenian bitch to understand that as a minority in a white country I gotta get mine. FOH !!! Y’all stans are making me sick putting this asshole on a pedestal. He didn’t bring anything new to the game and his message ain’t that sincere either.
Black people #1 threat to life isn’t police. It’s black people. Nobody cares about black on black crime, not one bit. It will never ever end. But police brutality? White people are more likely to be killed by a cop than a black person lol. Half the mofos beat up by cops deserved it. It’s not legal for a cop to beat your ass if you spit at them or talk shit, but man to man, you deserve it if you talk shit.
I can give a damn who he likes. My question is why Trump? Sounds like dick riding to me. Kanye West is a hypocrite like most politicians so I guess that’s he likes Trump.
Lot of Russian trolls in here…Republicans support white corporate america…plain and simple….they dont like welfare programs because they are funded by taxes paid by the wealthy people who bankroll their campaigns…the same wealthy people who under pay the black working class causing them to need government support in the first place…most welfare programs require that people be currently employed..its not a hand out…the greedy upper class are to blame…not the democrats….trump has repeatedly condemned black lives matter, supported and empowered white nationalists, opposed the removal of Confederate statuary, labeled brown immigrants sub human rapists…the list goes on and on…but hey…go ahead and listen to the black guy in a maga hat…who not so long ago said “slavery was a choice black people made”….the poor white working class has already fallen under trump’s spell to their own detriment…now he’s trying to hoodwink black America the same way…i dont know about you, but I’m not trying to be anyone’s sucker.
Ur comment screams victim. Man up sucka
Ur comment screams I’m a Trump Kanye dick sucker. Fuck off you piece of shit.
Yeah. One of the mai. Targets Russian trolls are trying to hit is hip hop website comment sections. That’s where the real influence will pay off. You fucking moron. No wonder he got elected, and will again. SMH
‘Russian’… Someone is deluded.
Donald Trump the most hip hop president of all time!
Yessir. Trump has always been down with the Hiphop communist. Many songs reference him is a positive light, from Mac Miller, to Ludacris… Lil Jon and him were friends. Trump even featured on a Method Man album back in the year 2000 for a skit. Trumps a real down to earth guy honestly. He’s not the monster he has been painted as by the world’s most powerful and wealthy.
I Am going to say this then leave it alone Trump wants to have sex with his daughter if you are a trump supporter you support incest.
You have the IQ of a gnat. Do some reading on sexuality and you’ll find incestuous thoughts are quote common. More lies and propaganda by leftists like you.
More insults! Man ppl are still so butthurt lol. Everytime u insult someone’s intelligence for their politcal opinion, you actually make Trumps voter base grow larger. People are sick and tired of being disrespected for their opinions. And yall still haven’t learned form your mistakes, which is exactly why you already lost 2020 and 2024.
i bet a lot of people will change there mind when you get ur trump check. if you real you would spend money giving to you by a racist. amirite.
Bro the money ain’t got shit to do with Trump. Its not his money it’s tax payer money. My money yours if you even pay taxes.
Man, fuk this clown ass supporting Trump. Dude needs to go away. I knew that sunday service was a cover for loving the devil. Everybody fell for the okeydoke. The Kanye that we all knew and loved is dead and gone. Fuk anybody and their moms that still support Trump or Kanye.
Fuck u racist piece of shit
Racist because he’s disliking Trump? I hate to rain on your little parade bruh, but there are also tons of white folks (and other ethnicities) that can’t stand Trump.
Nah, the Kanye you loved never have a fuck about your opinion and was friends with Trump for decades. It’s the phonies who turned their backs on Trump when their corporate overlords demanded it. Think… The Bush family hates Trump. The Clinton’s hate Trump. The Obamas hate Trump. The Rothchilds hate Trump. Trumo was not ever invited to Bohimien Grove. My point? All of the world’s most evil dynasties and powers hate Trump. That is proof to me his is good. You can’t sit here and tell me the people the Rothchilds love are good, and the people they hate are bad. We’re destroying century old power structures! Sit back n watch. Federal reserve will be destroyed by Trump!
I think I’m about to start trolling Russian sites. It’s some serious clowns on this site dude. Lmao.
By clowns you mean people with a different opinion than yours? If you want to live somewhere where everyone is forced to have the same opinion then move over to Iran….dumbass.
We have the freedom to like what we want to like. I just question the sincerity behind what Kanye does. Notice how he never talks about policies or positions. Everything is emotional. “I like Trump.” “I wear a red hat.” I just question Kanye’s sincerity. I feel he’s a troll of the highest order.
Must be coming with a new album. Donald and kanye should do an album together called dump and dumper.
Kanye x Trump new album “I thought it was a fart and I shit my pants” coming this fall
two men who think they are God. Pitiful
I’ve been done with Kanye for a long long time, he sold out his people way back, even watching and listening to him trying to entertain that piece of shit trump is so fucked up it’s both sad and desperate! The only by I give him is that he suffers with severe mental health issues but as long as he has money the yes men vultures will always be there worshiping at his feet
did Kanye sell any Black person to white people? I am not a fan of Kanye, but he doesn’t owe anyone anything. He can support whomever he wants to support, its called Democracy. You cant expect all Black people to think the same way, that’s condescending.
You thought he meant literally selling black people?? Wow you are a special kind of dumb ???
Yeah of course he thought that he meant that literally…..dumbass.
Fuckin goofball… kanye is disconnected from reality, we’ve known this for a long time… that’s why niggas give him a pass
How so? I think if you watch his deeper interviews you’ll find he isn’t so disconnected. He’s a lot more down to earth and spiritual than most rich rappers. The media paints him as crazy by purpsoedly taking his words out of context. They’ve been doing that to Kanye for over a decade.
Watch the Trump’s Not That Bad videos. The people on that walk away with their tail between their legs like so many of you would if you actually stepped into a meaningful debate with someone who knows what they’re talking about and doesn’t just agree with everything you and the media tell them. The problem is so many of you shut yourself out from any different opinions. Some of you should try opening your eyes and stop believing everything you hear. Nothing but sheep. Cause KW is black, he is mentally impaired if he doesn’t toe the company line. The shit you hear. Black people are more racist than anyone these days and they don’t even realize it. It’s sad.
They’re two of the same so why not. They live in a make believe world. Always talking but saying nothing. Both of them are attention freaks. He don’t know who he is anymore’ just trying to get in where he fit in. I’d rather not see or hear either of them. It’s a waste of my time. Next!
