Kanye West Says He’d Have Voted For Donald Trump — If He’d Cast A Ballot

The rapper didn’t comment on the president-elect during Trump’s campaign as GOP nominee. But he confessed on stage at the SAP Center in San Jose, California, on Thursday night that he would have voted for Trump if he had cast a ballot in the presidential election this month. West revealed all during what Billboard.com described as a “lengthy political speech” on his “Saint Pablo” tour, in which he also spoke about racism and his own plans to run for president in 2020.
