Our two daughters ( born in 1968 and 1971) have said they would vote for him in a New York minute. The both watch anything with a Kardashian in it, and are tepid Trump supporters.

Here is the Take Away Line from this article...

“My guess is (though he is mercurial) that he will keep his criticism of Trump quite muted and focus on “unity” and “Christian principles” so that in 2024 he can gain Trump’s endorsement for the Republican nomination.”

Black candidates get very few votes. I bet Kanye will not even get 1%

Also hopefully get black people to finally wake up and realize that the White Liberals, who have used blacks, as a tool for their Revolution, have never been their friends.

I take Kanye less seriously as a politician than I took Kid Rock. I never saw K. Rock as anything but an entertainer and sometime philanthropist. They are both welcome to the GOP family, but in a realistic manner.

That’s silly. West hasn’t shown he would be a good president. Why would Trump endorse him?

Pence has been a good VP. My guess is he will get Trump’s endorsement.

Absolutely ridiculous. I’d never vote for anyone “bi polar.”

Mr. West can run for whatever he has the money to do, but I am never voting for him.

Why do I have visions of Reagan endorsing Bush Sr.?

Maybe Kanye will Sutton off some black vote to help Biden lose. The way Jill Stein took women vote away from Hillary

Pence is a good man, and a good VP. But he cannot win the presidency in 2024. I'm sure that Trump knows this as well.

We cannot afford to hand over the White House to the Democrats in 2024.

I agree. Kanye is just setting up for 2024. That way he can go to big money donors in 2023 and 2024 and say that he has experience running for President.

Biggest political mistake Reagan ever made was making Bush Sr. his VP and then endorsing him for 1988.

Two of the biggest are his history as a rapper (whose marriage began with a pornographic web video) and his battle with mental illness. To the first concern, Trump has already flattened or reduced many of those barriers,

Very few people will equate the philanderings of a wealthy, charismatic man with the infamous and exhibitionist sex tape. And more than a few religious people will question his sincerity to faith. I just can't see him being taken seriously by enough people across the board.

I don’t believe Kanye will ever get the evangelical vote.

I'm pretty sure that the consensus even among Republicans is that Pence is unelectable; he was brought on board by Trump to reassure evangelicals in 2016 and he did his job very well.

I have no doubt that he's an honest and hard-working man who loves his country and who takes his job seriously. That being said, he lacks both the charisma of a television personality as well as the bona fides of someone who will buck the Republican establishment once Trump is out the door and it turns (once again) to lay prostrate before the big business interests that have wrecked the American middle class with its demand for open borders and international trade deals.
