Kanye West is currently holed up at his $14 million ranch in Cody, Wyoming where he’s finalizing his (already delayed) album DONDA. Although his wife Kim Kardashian flew to the remote location in an attempt to get him help for his bipolar disorder, she returned to Los Angeles sans husband.
But Ye insists he’s fine. On Friday morning (July 31), the seemingly troubled artist addressed his tear-filled rant during his inaugural campaign rally in South Carolina earlier this month, where he confessed he tried to convince Kardashian to abort their first child North West.
According to a pair of tweets, there’s absolutely nothing to worry about. In fact, he’s baffled by anyone who doesn’t cry when talking about abortion.
“I cried at the thought of aborting my first born and everyone was so concerned about me,” he wrote. “I’m concerned for the world that feels you shouldn’t cry about this subject. There is a tactic of 4 D’s Distract Discredit Dismiss To Destroy. I am quite alright. Take a second and think about what is being projected here.”
Kanye’s erratic behavior online following the rally also raised some red flags. In a string of late-night tweets, he accused his mother-in-law Kris Jenner of being a white supremacist, insinuated Kardashian had an affair with Meek Mill, suggested he wants a divorce and accused the Kardashian-Jenner family of trying to have him committed.
He ultimately apologized to Kardashian and expressed regret for taking their personal lives public.
“I would like to apologize to my wife Kim for going public with something that was a private matter,” Ye tweeted. “I did not cover her like she has covered me. To Kim I want to say I know I hurt you. Please forgive me. Thank you for always being there for me.”
Still, rumors of an impending divorce continue to loom. According to Page Six, the couple has already been living separate lives. A source reportedly said, “Kanye’s in Wyoming, that’s his main base. But they’re not like other couples, obviously, they have multiple houses and private planes, so it’s not like they’re not able to see each other. Kim is completely focused on her family and protecting her kids right now, they’re so young.
“She’s doing well, she doesn’t want this to impact on the kids, so it’s business as normal with them. Her sisters have been helping out and the kids have been with their cousins. They don’t want the kids to feel that anything is wrong, but of course, they want their father.”

People Magazine reported during their emotional discussion at the ranch, Kardashian begged him to abandon his presidential campaign and “focus on his mental health,” but he wouldn’t listen.
Instead, Kanye’s team filed paperwork to try to get him on the ballot as an independent candidate in Missouri and New Jersey ahead of the November election. Ye announced his intention to run in the 2020 presidential election on the Fourth of July.
Stance on abortion to the side, yes ye, people do talk about this situation without crying because that’s how mature people work things out and not everyone has the same perspective as you. How can you expect to be a decision maker for anything if you can’t keep yourself from getting emotional with heavy topics? People are on the other side of this issue and how are they supposed to debate someone who breaks down in tears over things? That being said, kanye certainly is on par with the other candidates in terms of mental illness, we got 2 with dementia and 1 with bipolar disorder…
I dont think crying about the issue of abortion is necessarilly contraversial, and certainly not at the fear that you considered doing it to your own child, it’s a heavy subject, I’m just not sure Kanye chose the correct time and platform. Among other things his first campaign outing was an incoherent unfocused mess. The guy is Ill, and the people closest to him and that love him should be trying their best to make sure he doesn’t pursue this. At least not now anyway.
These people love the attention. It’s hard not to believe that this isn’t part of a ratings bid for KUWTK and easy promotion for DONDA. Just before this whole fiasco I recall Kim was said to have “slapped” her sister on camera in a ” big family dispute.” Funny enough, nobody called the cops, there was no arrest, public trial or due process as would normally be the case. Rather interesting I’d say. I’m also confident that its also a political sideshow meant to lure in the small fraction of the vote that is willing to allow themselves to be distracted from the real issues and play into it. I can’t help but I ask myself why would fund a campaign for an election that he’s guaranteed not to win. Better still, is he funding his campaign? If not, who is and what do they stand to gain? Lord help us!
I Feel strongly about mental health but I somehow don’t trust anyone in that family not to use anything to make a dollar and also use something serious as an excuse for shitty self serving behaviour! You’re rich beyond belief, Kanye! step out of the limelight, give your ego a rest and sort yourself out in private! Otherwise you’re just full of shit and misrepresenting folks who are truly battling serious problems
Damn people can’t see this all a stint. Just to stay relevant. He sitting BK laughing thinking what next to say and do. I don’t jam him. He needs to help his hometown. Chicago outta control.
