Trump: Kanye West, who put on a MAGA hat after the show was great. He’s leading the charge!

Like many, I don’t watch Saturday Night Live (even though I past hosted it) - no longer funny, no talent or charm. It is just a political ad for the Dems. Word is that Kanye West, who put on a MAGA hat after the show (despite being told “no”), was great. He’s leading the charge!

Perfect tweet. :D

[P-Marlowe]

Any white person who booed him is a racist!

[Artemis Webb]

He better not be. Kanye could flip in a heartbeat. He’s unhinged.

With intellectually honest leaders among them, willing to speak out against the group-think, cultish Progressives who have powered themselves into high posts in the Democrat Party, then free minds, examining the results of reduced regulation, increased productivity, and exploding job opportunity, Black/Hispanic citizens will draw the same conclusions as all other groups—that the last group in power does not speak for them! They note that with Trump, it is “We,” but with Hillary and Barrack, it was always, “I”.

They told him he can’t wear a MAGA hat? Who the hell are they to tell him that.

[Yardstick]

“No charm” — that is a perfect characterization of the modern SNL.

[Conserv]

After Trump pardoned that woman(who was Kardashian’s cause), I doubt it.

[vpintheak]

Agreed. He is simply anti-conformity.

[dfwgator]

He’s still useful. People in the ‘community’ will be talking about him, I say he will embolden many blacks who have been cowered into silence by the Black Orthodoxy.

So Kanye was full of crap before when he was a thug, but he’s somehow credible now?

How about we leave off making Kanye some kind of hero.

He’s a douchebag.

It’s a nice way of saying they are mean and vicious if you don’t happen to be on their side.

Old proverb: “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.”

[Pollard]

I see him as someone with a bit higher intelligence than the average person but with absolutely no education and no good influences in his life when young.

He’s trying to figure things out at least; making an effort.

[Behind the Blue Wall]

When was he a thug?

[gundog]

Obama called him a jackass.

Kanye was and is a talented rapper and producer. I don't care about the political views of entertainers - they are usually fools and their opinion is almost always worthless. I don't change that opinion for Kanye.

But what's interesting about him is that he represents the headway Trump is making with blacks and Latinos - headway that establishment RINOs like Flake and Corker, who try to pander to these communities like Democrats, will never make. These are communities which still have members who respect strength in men, and Republicans trying to play Democrat-lite aren't going to appeal those men. Trump does.

When was he a thug?

When wasn't he?

I'm sorry, am I standing in the way of you expressing your undying love and respect for Kanye?

[humblegunner]

Kanye was and is a talented rapper

Yeah, that's nice. Good for him.

[AnotherUnixGeek]

Yeah, that's nice. Good for him.

It is good for him - it's why he has millions of fans and millions of dollars.

[Behind the Blue Wall]

I’m not his biggest fan but just don’t remember him ever doing anything thuggish. He’s never been a gangster rapper, grew up middle class, hasn’t had legal problems that I’m aware of, has probably made more money in fashion than in music. But I don’t follow everything so maybe I missed something.
