OK, this feud is simply getting humorous now.
Kanye West used to LOVE Donald Trump. Bear in mind when he mentioned sporting his MAGA made him really feel like a superhero? Recently, nevertheless, the 2 2024 presidential candidates (sigh…) have been butting heads.
First Trump was quoted by an insider as saying Ye was performing too “loopy” together with his public antisemitism rantings. Then they really received collectively for dinner… and the whole lot received manner worse. Kanye mentioned that in the course of the assembly he pissed off Trump by suggesting the previous POTUS be his operating mate in 2024. He claimed Donald went all mafioso on him then received so upset he began yelling, together with an insult to his ex Kim Kardashian.

Trump then went public with his model of occasions, saying he solely entertained the assembly as a result of he was attempting to “assist a severely troubled man.” It additionally turned clear Teflon Don is conscious of how the Republican Celebration is popping on him as a result of he tried to distance himself from Ye’s politics and fringe mates — one in every of whom was a widely known (and unabashed) white supremacist incel named Nick Fuentes. Trump claimed he “knew nothing about” the person, who Kanye had defined was a complete Trump loyalist. Ha!
So now Ye is hitting again at Trump’s model of occasions with maybe essentially the most hilarious insult but. The Energy rapper visited right-winger Tim Pool‘s Timcast podcast on Monday evening… for some time anyway — however we’ll get again to that.
Responding publicly to the ex-President he reiterated how a lot of a fan he was, saying:
“I’d have by no means needed to do something that harm Trump… I’m on Trump’s aspect.”
He added:
“I went into the trenches for Trump… There isn’t a one in my place that wore that hat.”
It’s true. He received a variety of warmth for sporting the MAGA hat on SNL. Rightfully so, clearly, he was supporting Trump ffs. However he made clear he wasn’t going to face for any criticism, saying:
“Trump mentioned issues that harm me. He lied about me, however I imply, he’s identified for mendacity.”
Ha! OMG! Now we have to be sincere, we find it irresistible when these folks struggle and the reality lastly comes out. Kanye was such a giant supporter… however deep down, sure, he 100% is aware of that each different phrase that comes of Trump’s mouth is whole B.S. And as quickly as they’re at odds, even within the slightest, he can admit it. Priceless.
OK, talking of not with the ability to take any criticism in any respect… Kanye really stormed out of the podcast after just some minutes! Why? It wasn’t antisemitic sufficient for him! Actually!
They have been speaking about cancel tradition when Ye in contrast himself to Martin Luther King Jr, and his remedy by the press to protesters being hit with firehoses:
“I assumed I used to be extra Malcolm X, however I discovered I’m extra MLK. As I’m getting hosed down daily by the press and financially, I’m simply standing there.”
Pool agreed, saying, “I believe they’ve been extraordinarily unfair to you.”
However Ye wasn’t letting that go. He needed his fellow provocateur to say precisely who “they” is, demanding:
“Who’s ‘they’ although? We are able to’t say who ‘they’ is, can we?”
In different phrases, Kanye meant the “they” right here is the Jewish folks. The supposed reason behind all his issues. Typical Nazi B.S. Pool responded:
“Company press. I’m not utilizing… I don’t use the phrase as the best way, I suppose, you guys use.”
Ye’s pal Nick Fuentes was additionally there (as was Milo Yiannopoulos — apparently they go all over the place collectively now as a celebration of three — we’ll let you determine which social gathering). He jumped in:
“It’s them, although, isn’t it?”
Pool pushed again ever so barely, saying:
“No, it’s not.”
As he tried to equivocate, to clarify his place, Ye requested:
“What do you imply it’s not?”
And as a substitute of ready round for a solution, he received up and left. They actually weren’t antisemitic sufficient for him. He simply walked out, after only some minutes of the interview. You possibly can see that complete second (under):
Shortly after, a producer got here on digital camera to substantiate that Ye, Fuentes, and Yiannopoulos had left. Hilariously a variety of Pool’s viewers turned on him within the feedback. Why? Oh, as a result of they’re really in settlement with the antisemitic fringe. The perimeter IS the suitable wing.
Folks like Pool could prefer to canine whistle and courtroom these white supremacist followers whereas not outright saying something that may get them deplatformed, however that’s the mob they’re chatting with.
With some luck, possibly this infighting will lastly present a variety of the suitable wing who they’ve been in mattress with this whole time. Will it change issues? We’ll have to attend and see. However we’re ready with popcorn as a result of of us like Trump and Ye combating means whoever loses, all of us win.
