Yeah, sure...why not?

The bar has been set so low by Trump it sounds totally reasnable.

Why is this "news"?

After Trump's election, there is a fear in the US that President Kanye West and First Lady Kim Kardashian is not impossible.

OMG the guy has no clue. And anyone in America that would really vote for him also have zero idea.

Such an occurrence would signal the end of America. The world would just ignore it completely an probably make New Zealand the new world leader.

The US is already the butt of the worlds jokes but West as president would be the only thing to get Trump from being the worst ever US president.

American jokes are getting worse by the day.

I remember the days when Trump supporters were slamming Obama for his lack of political experience, slamming celebs supporting politicians and were screaming about out of control spending.

Now they like lack of political experience, support celebs who support Trump and don’t see the debt as a problem.

They change with the wind. It’s like trying to nail jelly to a wall.

Plain unprincipled.

We are already seeing what is happening in the Oval Office with Trump who lacks political and diplomatic skills and experience.

But as a business man, at least better than a nothing but talking and smiling politician breaking promise after promise.

Thank you for getting that wall built and for getting Mexico to pay for it Mr President! Especially that part along the southern border - you know, in Colorado...

We don't even mind that an eight year old can climb over it...

Better he keeps his finger on the recording button than the nuclear one.

Naw, he’s probably having a new album coming out. I think he knows liberals will take his trolling bait as serious. The guy is a genius. Lol

The only thing this Moron and pervert has his hands on are women's genitals and a golf club...

Wouldn't be surprising...

Kanye groovin' in the Oval Office!? Does this mean after Trump "le deluge"? As old Benjamin Franklin warned his fellow-countrymen in the newly independent United States: it's “A RepublicIf You Can Keep It”. (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah!)

Some people drown themselves in drugs, and I drown myself in my addiction: sex," West said, explaining he discovered pornography at a young age and became addicted to sex after his mother died in 2007.

He can't beat that addiction if he married a woman that slept with half of the American rappers and ball players.

He's 42, he can run at any time. Not news.

No, or like idiots like Cynthia Nixon and Ashley Judd muddling up the waters.

Muddying up the waters.

No, Democrats have successfully and burned the Constitution

What does this mean?

I thought you were against name-calling, though?

i don't see why not, he is definitely on same or higher intelligence level than most of US citizens and richer than most of them... he can atleast read ... so yea quite plausible.

Coming from the successful music producer / IT security expert. LOL!

bass4funkOct. 26 04:06 pm JSTI've seen an editorial cartoon where Kid Rock gets to be the next POTUS. Is this what we really want?

No, or like idiots like Cynthia Nixon and Ashley Judd muddling up the waters.

Who says those 2 were running for POTUS? They ain't any more qualified than Spanky Don.

Loved that album he put out some years back My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. Perhaps this is another fantasy?

I think he's lost the plot but hey, so many people in the public light do. A certain Mancunian who touched the hearts of a generation is now repulsing us decades later.

Pro Trump AND a christian. Hes seen through the Dems bs. Dangerous.

I've spoken to some actual Christians about Trump. They are horrified by the hypocrisy of evangelicals in siding with such an immoral criminal.

So let me get this straight.

Many people think its impossible for Kanye West to get elected when we have elected a reality show host as president, a body builder/action star that had no real speaking parts as governor, and a wrestler as governor. The only thing that would separate Kanye from that category is his skin color. In case you don't know who I am speaking about I am referring to Donald Trump, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and Jesse Ventura respectively.

Kanye can win a presidential election. Same way Trump won. All you need is a voters that are heavily divided and party that is heavily insistent upon pushing the wrong candidate regardless of how much evidence there is to go with a different candidate.

And people wonder why most brightly educated Americans are leaving the US, turning in passports and renouncing their citizenship. As much as I would be against Hillary, and I really expect the backlash, I would take Hillary over this thing.

idiocracy is USA for the last 50years... Kanye would be hardly any different ... tbh, they should just make all those top posts lottery based with a month or two duration... so that anyone can be a president a while.

expat, try learning english again? try comprehension classes...

and whats wrong with changing governments? or you rather dictators?

Kanye is completely without care re the industry, media and lefties. Pro Trump AND a christian. Hes seen through the Dems bs. Dangerous.

They change with the wind

Liberals tend to do that.....a lot.

Trump does hold the record for the longest government shut down in history.

Yeah, but the Dems did enough of their own shut downs.

Naw you would be spouting the 180 deg opposite if was a Biden or Clinton supporter

Nope, I would not.

You mean like president Obama who achieved a greater fall in the unemployment rates and black unemployment rates

Not at all

I'd vote for Kayne before I'd vote for any current Dem candidate for Pres.

Same here with the exception of Tulsi Gabbard and John Delaney.

-8 ( +1 / -9 )

As a Christian, I hate to jump on the Kanye bandwagon until we know this is really genuine and not a PR ploy like his wife is known to do. But whatever his motives, it seems like he has a positive message for today's youth. So many artists are out there promoting sex, booze, rebellion, drugs, etc. It's refreshing to see someone standing up for what is right and even admitting his own struggles in the past. That is not easy to do and it gives me some hope that his conversion might be genuine. Time will tell. Celebrities can often fall hard because they are so much in the public eye and there will be people out there who want him to fall so he will have to on guard. Anyway, I'm anxious to hear his new album.

-8 ( +1 / -9 )

Yes i would also vote for Kanye over any 2020 Dem. John Delaney is actually not bad though. Wonder how long before he is a Russian asset too.

I love that he has the hootspa to fly in the face of jaundiced PC culture.

Go for it Kanye- might be an improvement from what we have seen in the last 4 presidents !

I'd vote for Kayne before I'd vote for any current Dem candidate for Pres.
