So if we stop selling/providing pregnancy tests, does that mean no more babies? /s

 

Kanye has a long history of supporting abusers like Chris Brown, R. Kelly, defending Tyga's grooming accusations, etc. If he's not directly an abuser, which isn't known as of now, he's definitely friendly with a lot of them, and that's not even including Trump or Elon Musk.

 

Kanye is against abortion so you can bet that his choice for supreme court justice would be pro-life and would put Roe V. Wade in grave danger

And maybe hasn't sexually abused anyone, but has defended those who have: Kanye West Comes Out as Sexual Abuse Apologist

 

A non-zero amount of people would, which could split votes. I don't know how many Trump people would ditch Trump for him, but guessing less because Biden has less enthusiasm in general.

 

Absolutely. People either sincerely or jokingly. It would imo hand the election to trump sadly

 

Do you really think it would swing things more than whoever the Green Party or libertarians run? I just can’t see very many people actually coming out to vote for Kanye West. The only concern and maybe this is where you’re going is that the media will give him so much unearned coverage that it might actually make him seem like a real option

 

Yeah that last part for sure. I mean it literally happened with trump

but also like I think y’all vastly underestimate the amount of zoomers who are 18+ and already think the election is a joke and would do it for the meme of it
Idk
I sincerely hope I’m wrong haha

 

I honestly don’t know. Kanye is such a fucking wild card it’s hard to predict anything. Like he has been so all over the place idek what his fan base looks like at this point

 

There’s people even my age saying they’re going to vote for him now.

 

If Kanye was even near as relevant as he was during MBDTF right now - then I would agree - but I think people are overestimating how relevant he is right now and how much zoomers either won't even show up to the polls or are really about destroying fascists.

 

Yeah idk, I can’t see many Biden supporters switching to Kanye. Kanye has praised Trump and met with him in the past so I guess there’s a chance that some republicans who are getting tired of Trump would vote for him. I guess it could equally take votes away from both candidates but who knows. If anything he would just get votes from people who originally weren’t planning on voting

 

to be clear i was mostly joking as I do not think Kanye will actually be on any ballots or make any difference in this at all but yeah

 

Yeah I don’t think it’s even possible to happen at this point I guess I just meant hypothetically if he somehow pulled it off

 

People on this very website still give Kanye a free pass and gush over his new music lol, I think it’s pretty safe to say there are plenty of people who would vote for him over Biden.

 

Dersh is having another Normal One

 

I don’t know why we’re spending this much time on Kayne when it’s either not gonna happen or go anywhere.

 

Why is anyone giving Kanye running for president any brain power at all? Had he announced a year ago cool id entertain the thought but he won’t be on ballots and it’s just another insane thing he’s said/done.

 

They’ll come around now that she’s won and then do it again once she’s up for re-election, the usual

 

black people aren’t stupid, but stupid people of all races exist. Just like most low information white voters will give Trump their vote, let’s not pretend there aren’t full grown ass low information black voters out there that would vote for Kanye just because “fuck both parties” “it doesn’t matter who wins” Or, the worst of all, “haha it’s funny” lol.

I think people are overestimating how many potential Kanye voters will be black though. Thered be a lotttttt of 18-30 year old low information White people who would vote for him too. “Lmao bro Kanye 2020! Yeet!”

 

I think he has the ego enough to try and get on the ballot in some states before it’s too late. IF he really wants to. Hard to tell if the tweet is serious or not though

 

There’s definitely going to be hipsters who vote for Kanye ironically lol
