Lana Del Rey Slams Kanye West's Support of Donald Trump, Calling It a 'Loss for the Culture'
People Magazine ^ | October 1, 2018 | Emily Zauzmer

Lana Del Rey is taking a stand against Kanye West‘s support of President Donald Trump.

On Sunday, the “Young and Beautiful” singer — who famously performed at the rapper and wife Kim Kardashian West‘s 2014 wedding — left a scathing comment on West’s Instagram post, in which West, 41, posed in a “Make America Great Again” hat and vowed to “abolish the 13th amendment.”

“Trump becoming our president was a loss for the country but your support of him is a loss for the culture,” Del Rey, 33, started. “I can only assume you relate to his personality on some level. Delusions of grandeur, extreme issues with narcissism — none of which would be a talking point if we weren’t speaking about the man leading our country.”

She continued, “If you think it’s alright to support someone who believes it’s OK to grab a woman by the pussy just because he’s famous — then you need an intervention as much as he does — something so many narcissists will never get because there just isn’t enough help for the issue.”(continued)

Gutter culture is nothing worth defending.

Sounds like a place. Lana Del Ray. Probably California or Florida.
Hey lady, no one knows who you are. However most have heard of Kanye.

Thanks to Kanye for speaking the truth.

Me neither.

Looks like Monica Lewinsky’s sister.

Wonder if she’s in the same line of work.

I know who she is.
Lana ‘dabbles’ in Witchcraft.
Lana refuses to perform in Israel, because her BDS Palestinian fans didn’t want her to.

Who is this Lana Del Rey? Is she related to Lester Del Rey, the science fiction writer and founder of Del Rey Books?

“Loss for the Culture”

There is why conservatives in film/music don’t talk about their stance. Their culture isn’t inclusive, its one way to the left.

Furthermore, Obama was great for the culture - cool and hip - but what did he actually do to help the inner cities? That’s Kanye’s argument.

No, the loss of culture occurred when they moved to the party that lynched them without mercy.

All I know about her is she famously was saddened that the Arabs who occupy portions of Israel have been sorely failing in their efforts to mass kill Jewish people.

Raging anti-Semite, who, even five years ago would have been shunned from the public stage.

Now, her kind of hate (the right kind — like hating white males) is in vogue.

Who cares what Lana Del Rey has to say about Kayne West?? The reason a story like this gets written is to create a wave of bad press and public shaming for any significant celebrity who goes off the liberal plantation so that others will be too scared to do it. Its also to marginalize West as a kook (which he can be). Ironically, West has made a lot of crazy comments. In his support of Trump and pleas to blacks to be open minded, he is actually being insightful and engaging in original thinking, even if not everything he says is completely coherent. But its this clear thinking that gets branded as crazy and off the wall.

Which culture would this be - the one that’s been a flaming dumpster fire for the past quarter century?

Kanye realized he could get up, pack some clothes, walk straight out of his slave quarters, down the plantation path, through the gate and down the road to a better life.

...and for this he is boooo’d by the left and vilified by those of his own race, when they too can #walkway anytime they choose.

Unfortunately I love a lot of her music. I have probably 15 albums because I had access to a lot of her music never published in the form I now have it. I love the melancholy Video Games, on Born to Die. Melancholy to describe a song of hers is redundant however. The entire album Paradise is really good. Her mouthing off really upsets me. Damn these people. They have to ruin everything!

She is also one of the nut jobs that tried to cast a spell against Trump after he took office.

Well, the Torah says a few things about witches.

Not flattering.

No wonder she doesn’t like Jewish people.

What is the ‘culture’ of which she speaks?
