Trump: 'Shouldn't be hard' for Kanye West to take away votes from Biden

President Trump on Saturday expressed confidence that rapper Kanye West — who recently announced that he plans to launch a late bid for the White House — could steal votes from Trump's presumptive Democratic opponent in November, former Vice President Joe Biden.

"That shouldn’t be hard," Trump tweeted, referring to West taking votes away from Biden. "Corrupt Joe has done nothing good for Black people!"

Not surprised. Kanye is authentic. I am really thinking about voting for him.

But President Trump deserves a second term. In the immortal words of our Founders, he has pledged his life, fortune and many other things, including his privacy.

If Kanye really does run, the ideal outcome would be him peeling off enough black votes from Biden in MI, FL, PA and WI to help keep those states in the Trump column.

Absolutely. I really hated this guy at one point. But he’s had more courage than almost every other performer out there.

He called planned Parenthood what it was

Hopefully enough blacks will want to stick their thumbs in the eyes of the Democrats

“Not surprised. Kanye is authentic. I am really thinking about voting for him.”

Thank you one of the best laughs I've had in like forever...

How about Terry Crews, that man is now seeing the reality of what happens if you step off the Democrat plantation. It will not be long before the “cancel culture” goes into full swing and he risks losing his livelyhood. He will have to make a decision; break free with his morals intact and face being black listed from Pedowood, or tuck his tail and submit to the group thought, betraying his morals for a paycheck. I pray for him to remain strong and stick to his guns.

I would suggest that Kanye only make a serious effort in four states (Michigan, Ohio, Minnesota and Wisconsin). Nationally, even with write-in votes....he could get 750k votes easily. For the BLM, West represents a problem because of Biden’s long history of being anti-black.

I just read about him. He’s getting slammed on social media. One person said BLM is all about love. I must have missed that part in between the killing white people and black people and arson and looting and rioting and destroying property and destroying statues and terrifying some older folks...

LOL
Or how about Antifa? White people going in and burning down black neighborhoods under cover of “anti-fascism”. Then they leave it to the residents to deal with.

The left continues to use blacks as cannon fodder.

That is pretty funny. Stupid white college kids destroying black areas and businesses under the premise of fighting for them.

This is a practice run for West, to test the waters, get some experience in the ring and apply lessons in his full 2024 presidential run

yes but he has missed all filing dates so he needs to be someone’s 3rd party candidate

That’s absolutely not true. He’s only missed the deadlines for North Carolina, Texas, New Mexico, and Indiana.

Unfortunately for him, though, a bunch of states’ deadlines are within the next few days (Nevada, Delaware, Florida, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Michigan) and it’ll be very hard to meet signature requirements, etc.

Perhaps Mr. West might want to talk about this...

Most NYC minority and women-owned small businesses might not survive next 6 months: Stringer

Don’t forget Detroit, NC, and the tidewater Hampton road area of VA

He needs to get on the ballot first. And he isn't taking any steps to do that.

He's got four days to qualify in Michigan and needs 11,200 signatures first. He's got 3 days to qualify in Florida, and needs 132,000 signatures. Might make Pennsylvania, August 3 and 5,000 signatures. Might make Wisconsin, August 4 and 2,000 signatures. But West is a joke and won't be on the ballot is a single state.
