Just as we suspected earlier this week… Kanye West isn’t in it to win it, he’s in it to help Donald Trump!
Days ago we reported on some of the super-shady operatives behind Yeezy’s “campaign” for President, and noted how even the New York Times had been openly questioning the rapper’s motivations for seeking the White House. And now, based on this new report out Friday morning, we pretty much know for sure: the Chicago native’s entire “campaign” is nothing more than a front to get Trump re-elected!

The thesis of our reporting earlier this week was that the College Dropout rapper’s strategy has been to pull some of the Black votes, as well as the youth votes away, from Democrat Joe Biden, thus giving Trump a needed edge in several key states like Ohio. At the time, that working theory was just that — a theory!
But now, Forbes journo Randall Lane has published his own bombshell report to basically confirm it all: Kanye’s ONLY catalyst in national politics is to play spoiler for the Democrats, so he can see his boy Trump win four more years in Washington. ICK!!!
Lane had a direct text message exchange with Kanye about that exact issue, and the 43-year-old music producer and fashion designer appeared to confirm the strategy himself. At one point, ‘Ye told the journalist he was simply “walking” for President, rather than running — a very tongue-in-cheek way to admit the, um, lack of intensity in his campaign. Quickly, Yeezy texted back that he was “walking… to win,” but it piqued Lane’s curiosity enough to follow up with more pointed questions.
When the Forbes writer noted the rapper can’t actually win in 2020, as he’s not on enough ballots to yield 270 votes, Kim Kardashian West‘s husband bizarrely waved away the question before responding to a direct accusation that he was simply playing spoiler against Biden:
“I’m not going to argue with you. Jesus is King.”
Uhhh, OK.
He then replied that his entire campaign was “a God production” when further pressed about operatives working on his behalf. Thanks, Kanye…

Later in the text back and forth, West “rebuffed various attempts to clarify who was driving his ballot access or strategy and whether it’s being coordinated by or with Republican-affiliated officials,” according to Lane. He also claimed he’s “meeting with [Trump’s Secretary of Education] Betsy DeVos about the post-COVID curriculum” and “designing a school within the next month,” which are two eye-opening things to be doing for a supposedly independent candidate running against Donald, ya know?!
On Thursday afternoon, Trump himself got involved in this little brouhaha, too. Speaking to reporters at the White House about his new, um, “opponent,” he said:
“I like Kanye very much. No, I have nothing to do with him getting on the ballot. We’ll have to see what happens.”
Hmmm…
Like we said at the time of our initial report on this matter, SOMETHING IS FISHY HERE, Y’ALL! This election is too important for people to go around voting for a rapper! Don’t fall for this bull s**t!!!
