Kanye West reveals he’s a Donald Trump supporter.
“I said something that was kind of politically correct. I told y’all I didn’t vote, right? But I didn’t tell you — I guess I told you — but If I would’ve voted, I would’ve voted on Trump,” West explained at a San Jose concert Thursday night.
“That don’t mean that I don’t think that Black Lives Matter, that I don’t mean that I don’t think I believe in women’s rights … because that was the guy I would’ve voted for,” West explained.
Kanye West also told his fans to “stop talking about race so much.”

“This world is racist, ok? Let’s stop being distracted to focus on that as much. It’s just a f——ing fact. We are in a racist country, period. Do not allow people to make us talk about that so f——ing long. Let’s talk about whatever the f—- we wanna talk about,” he said.
It’s important to note that after making this statement, the entire crowd booed Kanye West. In fact, many people took to social media to bash Kanye.

Figure this out: Kanye West said George Bush doesn’t like black people. George Bush didn’t support Trump, but Kanye would’ve voted Trump. #?

Kanye West has gone from clocking Bush as a racist to practically caping for Donald Trump…and I’m not even surprised.
…what a time. ?

Kanye West is not the only person in the Kardashian family that is sympathetic to Donald Trump. Caitlyn Jenner reportedly tried to persuade Kim Kardashian to vote for Trump.
