Usred baraža zlonamjernih napada i kriticizma ljevičara, rap superstar i modni mogul Kanye West nije se pokolebao i posustao u svojoj podršci predsjednika Trumpa i svojim nastojanjima da promovira slobodu govora i misli.

Nakon što je West u travnju izrazio ljubav i podršku prema Predsjedniku, slavne osobe i liberalni mediji počeli su ga kritizirati, nazivajući ga “jeb**** moronom“, “luđakom” i izjavljivali da je “sada u potpunosti bijelac“.
You don't have to agree with trump but the mob can't make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don't agree with everything anyone does. That's what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.

Dobitnik Grammyja morao je čak pojačati svoje osiguranje nakon što je bivši član Snoop Doggove ekipe pozvao članove bande da ga napadnu zbog toga što podržava Trumpa.
Ali većina Amerikanaca podržava Westa i nije pala pod utjecaj netrpeljivih limuzinskih liberala.
U stvari, West i Trump su čak dobili više podrške zbog tih napada.
Ne samo da se ocjena odobravanja Trumpa među crnim muškarcima udvostručila sa 11 posto na 22 posto nakon što je West izašao u susret Predsjedniku, već je i Westov album, “Ye”, koji je upravo pušten u prodaju, broj jedan u zemlji — i u svijetu.
#1 in 83 countries 🙌🙌🙌 https://t.co/Z8FC9LPL7W

Više od TMZ-a:
Album Kanyea Westa, “Ye”, već obara rekorde… a tek je dostupan nekoliko dana.
Brojke projekta koji se sastoji od 7 pjesama su zapanjujuće — Kanye je ispunio prvih 7 mjesta i na Spotifyju i na Apple Music — a album je već skupio više od 100 milijuna streamova ukupno.
Dodano toj statistici…
— #1 iTunes album u 63 zemlje.
— #1 Spotify na globalnoj listi.
— #1 Apple Music album u 83 zemlje
West je predstavio album pred stotinjak ljudi na ranču u Wyomingu… s otvorenim barom, tonom slavnih osoba, logorskim vatrama i konjima,
I feel so blessed. For everyone that didn't turn they back. I'm in tears right now. I love all of you pic.twitter.com/8jwIALBsDu

Westova supruga, reality TV superzvijezda Kim Kardashian, posjetila je Bijelu kuću prošlog četvrtka kako bi zatražila od predsjednika Trumpa pomilovanje za 62-godišnju prabaku koja je služila doživotnu zatvorsku kaznu bez mogućnosti uvjetnog otpusta za prvi prekršaj vezan za distribuciju droge.
Nakon susreta, Kardashian je pohvalila Predsjednika.
Trump je u srijedu izmijenio doživotnu kaznu za Alice Johnson, a reality zvijezda je zahvalila predsjedniku Trump i proslavila vijest na društvenim medijima.
So grateful to @realDonaldTrump, Jared Kushner & to everyone who has showed compassion & contributed countless hours to this important moment for Ms. Alice Marie Johnson. Her commutation is inspirational & gives hope to so many others who are also deserving of a second chance.

Anti-Trump ljevičari nisu uspijeli galvanizirati javnost protiv Westa, Kardashian i Trumpa. Kardashian je dobila više pozitivnih nego negativnih komentara od ljudi s obje strane političkog spektra.
Kudos to @KimKardashian for showing that it IS possible for celebs and Trump to work together. #neverthoughtIdseetheday #nowImaKKWfan

So @KimKardashian saved a life this week. Not too bad for a reality star. Imagine what this world could look like if all celebrities used their star power for such good! #AliceJohnson

Painting with a broad brush. Democrat here who hates Trump. Today I thank him as well, he did a good thing. Credit is given where credit is due

Thank you for using your position of power with a level head to truly do a kind thing, I don’t care what president did it, it is done, this is a good thing and anyone who says anything bad needs to look in the mirror and ask themselves who they are becoming & if it’s good or not
