Trump on Kanye West's presidential run: 'He is always going to be for us'

[RandySF]

President Trump brushed off the news of rapper Kanye West’s presidential bid and his subsequent comments that he no longer supports the president.

He is always going to be for us, and his wife is going to be for us,” Trump said Thursday in an interview with Fox News’s Sean Hannity, referring to West and reality TV star Kim Kardashian West.

Trump brushed off comments that West made earlier this week, telling Forbes that he is “taking the red hat off," referring to Trump’s signature red “Make America Great Again” campaign baseball caps.

Trump did not, however, criticize West in his interview with Hannity and maintained that he thinks West will support him in his reelection bid.

6. Leave it to Trump to say the quiet parts out loud.

Kanye West is out to provide distraction and spread confusion. Without any FEC paperwork filed, this campaign appears to be a reality TV spectacle. In less serious times, it might be considered performance art, but we saw this bad movie in 2016.
