2. Ye’ is a supporter of Donald Trump.
President Trump was first praised by Kanye during a 2016 concert in Sacramento, right before he checked into a hospital. Upon cancelling his tour, he was spotted in the New York City Trump Tower. This caused a decent amount of backlash, which has now returned after an interview with Ebro Darden of Hot97. West is quoted as saying “I do love Donald Trump” during the interview, and he further tweeted a picture of his signed MAGA (“Make America Great Again”, which was Trump’s campaign slogan) hat. The tweets caused West to lose roughly 9 million followers, but it’s become clear that the two are close friends.
