Trump was pressed this week by radio host Larry O’Connor about Kanye’s recent comments, which prompted him to be suspended from Twitter and Instagram.

“He’s been saying some really offensive things lately about your own son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and about Jewish people, Jewish Americans writ large. Could you react to that? Because is this the guy that you knew?” the radio host asked Trump.

“Well, I haven’t really seen the statements he’s made. I did watch the Tucker Carlson interview and he was really nice to me. Beyond anybody, he was … he was great to me, and to the MAGA movement, which was really impressive,” Trump replied.

West has become a right-wing advocate, and a staunch supporter of Trump. It is possible that the right-wing media that Trump follows has not fully reported on Kanye’s comments.

As a result, VIN is taking this opportunity to post a list of Kanye’s recent comments:

In a tweet sent to rapper Sean “Diddy” Combs: “I’m a bit sleepy tonight but when I wake up I’m going death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE.”

“I’ma use you as an example to show the Jewish people that told you to call me that no one can threaten or influence me,” he added.

In 2018, West allegedly said he “loved Hitler and the Nazis” during a bizarre rant on a podcast. (The comments were edited out and not published.)

He claimed that Jews are actually Black people, saying that when he refers to Jews he means “the 12 lost tribes of Judah, the blood of Christ, who the people known as the race Black really are [sic],” and posited that Planned Parenthood was the product of a collaboration between the KKK and Margaret Sanger “to control the Jew [i.e. Black] population.”

He also said that it is impossible for him to be fairly described as antisemitic, because as a Black person he is actually a Jew.

He told Tucker Carlson that he believed Jared Kushner only arranged peace agreements between Arab nations and Israel “to make money.”

At another point, he stated that he wished his children had learned about Hannukah instead of “a complicated Kwanzaa,” because Hannukah would at least “come with some financial engineering.”

He shared screenshots of text messages on Instagram insinuating that Jews are using their purported control over his peers in the music industry to intimidate him and defiantly said that “no one can threaten or influence me.” The post has since been deleted.

He also said that Jewish people “toyed with” him, and that they “tried to black ball anyone who opposes” their “agenda.”

He told Chris Cuomo in an interview: “When I wore the ‘White Lives Matter’ T-shirt, the Jewish underground media mafia already started attacking me. They canceled my four SoFi Stadium shows [in the Los Angeles suburb of Inglewood], right? They had the press—the same people, the outlets that when I was arguing with Pete Davidson and Trevor Noah, they called me an abuser for arguing with people about my ex-wife and my family, and when I get to see my kids and when I don’t. And they just immediately disrespect me, they keep the ‘crazy’ narrative going, they never call me a billionaire…”

Trump hasn’t seen it…. and he won’t criticize him even after he “does see it” because Kenya is a MAGA fan,

And Trump’s rule is .. “you never criticize anyone who supports Trump”

Be it Kanye West or Putin, you just never criticize your fans no matter how despicable they are , and you never stop criticizing your political opponents no matter how good they are

In Trumps mind there are no good people or bad people, there are only fans & enemies

The sick orange man tolerates antisemitism as long as it helps him. His obsession with his ego makes him blind to all else. Trump uses antisemitism as a political tool. Those that support him are fools being duped by a dangerous and demented con man

Democrats support mutilating confused children.
