Kanye West announces he's running for president

I read the same thing on the QAnon website

 

Many folks who are voting for Biden are doing so to stop the bleeding Trump has caused and for no other reason. There likely would not have been a piece of garbage like Trump rising to undeserved power if not for the corporate owned establishment Dems along with the totally owned and corrupted GOP. Thankfully young people and all people are waking up to this broken system and will get rid of all of them pronto!

Who in their right mind supports the grifter who lied to the American people and who caused to date close to 133,000 DEATHS??? No one, that's who. As for Kanye West, his nonsense about running is big fat publicity stunt aimed at the perpetually gullible.

 

Kanye should tell slo-Joe he's won't be voting for him, and then ask if that means he's not black.

 

If he isn't going to pull votes from Biden why are leftists so pissed about it? If he were to pull votes from Trump wouldn't you be all for it? Why would you care?

 

Kanye should pick Thomas Sowell or Larry Elder for VP.

 

Not at all. He crosses all sorts of borders and prejudices.

He's religious, but kinda cool (in a dorky uncool way). He's conservative, yet not. He's Right, but also Left. He's black, but not racist.

His 'eccentricity' is irrelevant. We're talking figurehead, with money and solid advisers.

 

Dr Sowell !

 

You underestimate the power of familiarity. Badly.

 

Go ahead. Keep talking.

Meantime, I KNOW black folk are too smart to keep voting for their white Overlords (Democrats). The Kanyes and Dr Sowells just need to be in the mix, and you'll find out how they're needed.

 

Nah...

Yeezy would have to balance the ticket with a Caucasian Woman...

Kellyanne might have to step in and accept the VP Nomination.

Kayleigh would be a no-brainer (but she is too young)...

Kellyanne it is.

 

It's the 21stC. No one is clean now.

 

I can hardly remember people using that phrase in real life. It sounds silly. Also, watch the video that RockinRobin posted. It's just a publicity stunt that shouldn't be taken seriously.

 

Frat houses haven't been banned yet?

 

what do you mean no one... didn't I just say I would vote for Trump before anyone. You're a Trump hater, your post is just spewing insults and hatred... I have no interest in that

 

Really... what if I asked you for a link will you disappear

 

You damned right I hate a grifter who set up a bogus university for the sole purpose of ripping off fellow Americans of their life savings and I repeat...ANYONE in the right mind would feel the same! He's a lifelong, pathological liar and sociopathic thief. Of that there is no doubt and much fact-filled documentation to prove it. "Hatred" is robbing folks blind and lying about a pandemic which has costed people their lives and families their loved ones!

 

Maybe you shouldn't make such blatant false accusations that originate from conspiracy sites like QAnon.

 

Talk about an Amos and Andy campaign.

 

You must mean an Abraham Lincoln campaign.

Kanye is closing down the plantation.

 

Hard to do when you are coonin and yassa bossin.

 

Apparently we agree, but not in the way you meant.

 

What familiarity? My sweet mother told me something is wrong with that guy after she heard he was supposedly running. She has become a conservative Trump supporter who watches FOX News 24/7 during her retirement years and she wouldn't vote for Kanye.

I'm middle aged. Kanye went to the same HBCU that I did. He's done his Sunday service show there in 2019 and 2020 much to my delight. He's a child of the hip hop generation like me. So, I feel some familiarity with him but I wouldn't vote for him.

My kids the 20 somethings and the one who can't vote this time but will be eligible soon wouldn't vote for Kanye. That's three generations of blacks and multiple political persuasions saying no to Kanye. If there is any black poster who would vote for Kanye, please speak up for Yeezy. It"s all a joke so Kanye can sell more music and gymshoes.

Are you?



Edit to add: More than 90% could not list the last 5 presidents but 100% knew exactly who said "Hit me baby one more time"

 

I don't know of any leftists who even take Kanye West seriously, much less being "pissed about it." He's a joke, and his candidacy is unlikely to pull many votes from either side, but the reason I think that more Trump voters would vote for Kanye is the same reason many voted for Trump in 2016: the novelty, and the mistaken belief that an amateur, an entertainment celebrity, would be good at running this country instead of someone who actually knows how. In other words, never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

The level of incompetence we're seeing in the Trump administration is causing Trump to lose some of his core support. The shoddy way in which they have mishandled this pandemic, as seen for months in the daily briefings that they no longer hold, has given American voters "turd immunity." (Got that from Bill Maher several weeks ago.)

Kanye West will not be much of a factor in November. Just good entertainment.

 

I would be stunned if he was even on the ballot in more than a couple of states. He'll likely manage that for fun and draw less than 1% in any single state.

He's not even good entertainment when he's doing his day job (whatever that is anymore)

Now if Tom Hanks were to announce as a third party candidate, Joe Biden should give it up the next day...
