    That's unfortunately what tends to happen when people have their own opinions and express them from time to time. Believe it or not Kanye is saying some shit a lot of others think, they just wont say. I watched his interviews recently, to me it sounds like he doesn't know shit about Trumps politics, he only likes the whole idea of trump. The fact that he wasn't a politician and became president. That's it. I don't see what is wrong with that. I think it's something to admire. I have also seen points being made, the whole hip hop community used to love trump, put him in their lyrics and now that hes president all of a sudden hes hated. I mean I don't get it. You can like an aspect of somebody without agreeing with their politics. Poeple are just picking and choosing what they are hearing from Kanye and spinning it, but the same people complaining right now are gonna be playing his new albums in june

    What does any of that have to do with my personal opinion of him?

    Sorry, you can't have it both ways. What you're also failing to understand is that near everyone who openly supports Agent Orange gets it.

    As they should.

    Would they get it as much if they chose a different Republican to support like Mike pence?

    Nope. Not nearly as much. It's TRUMP bro. That's why Kanye is getting his well deserved flack.

    If you think everyone else leans left, that would mean you are extremely right wing.

    Hilarious. No, they value money not trump.

    His name is used because he represents an extravagant lifestyle.

    The suggestion of the notion that "the whole hip hop community" loved him is utter crap.

    Saying that makes me think you don't know much about Hip-hop.

    When I said "you did the movie that was enough", I was talking about his Ray Charles impersonation.

    Agreed.

    Why is that something to admire? You think unqualified people are praiseworthy? Would you fly in a plane piloted by a drunk blind guy who is making his first-ever flight?

    Mike Pence is way more dangerous than Trump could ever be. I think people are giving Kanye shit just because of the overwhelming hate of Trump. That's it. Over the last year it's been programmed in peoples heads by the media to believe Trump is the most evil person on earth. I certainly don't agree with a lot of what Trump says but I don't hate the guy. I don't think he is as dangerous to society as everybody else thinks.

    Tell the truth.

    How did you feel about the Bush comments.

    Be honest.

    The issue with you constantly trying to box me into this "Alt right" label is I have proven time and time again I am not. I am more of a centrist. I take things from the right I like and things from the left. I have views of both parties that go with my ideas. However I completely hate the party system as it has shown all it creates is division

    Facts are facts. They have to be reported. Media programming my ass.

    Trump has BEEN a piece of shit sexual abuser for years.

    I was 14 almost 15. I didn't care. As I got older I found it funny only because of Mike Meyers and Chris Tuckers reaction right after he said that

    I probably know more than you to be honest. I am just saying it's funny when the community loves name dropping the guy because he has money but then stops because he is president. It's interesting

    That's not even a direct quote. There was way more context to it than what the clip showed. Just watched the 30 minute segment today. He wasn't trying to say slaves had a choice. Try listening to the whole clip instead of taking the popular headline

    I don't think I defend him. It is what it is. I think he deserves to be called out on his bullshit when he does something dumb but hearing this from the media every day is annoying. Hearing peoples same opinions on the guy is annoying. It's like one big echo chamber. You love each others same opinions. It's like you say you hate the guy but at the same time you are the one giving him the most attention. I mean this is exactly what the republicans did with Obama. It's constant hate and twisted headlines. You would think people would want the president to succeed. Seems to me it's the opposite. It's odd

    And yet again I don't agree with everything Kanye has said. I have listened to the guys music since I was 13. He has said some crazy shit but I also think he has points but people use the same words to dismiss him. "Oh he is crazy". I mean sure that's easy to say. Kanye obviously has some issues but don't we all? I think there is some truth to some of the things he is currently saying
