Kanye West: ‘They Threatened My Life’ for Wearing a Trump Hat
Breitbart ^ | 6 Oct 2022 | PAM KEY

Posted on 10/07/2022 7:29:34 AM PDT by SoConPubbie

Kanye West said Thursday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight” that he was told he would face death threats for liking Donald Trump.

West said, “My so-called friends, slash handlers around me told me, like, if I said that I like Trump, that my career will be over, that my life would be over.”

He continued, “They said stuff like people get killed for wearing a hat like that. They threatened my life.”

West added, “They basically said that I would be killed for wearing the hat. I had someone call me last night and said, ‘Anybody wearing a White Lives Matter shirt is going to be green-lit,’ and that means that they’re going to beat them up if they wear it. I’m like, you know, green light me then.”

Make no mistake. They plan to kill us all as soon as they get the chance.

I agree, but notice we never do anything to them. At some point that will stop.

I watched the whole interview last night.

Throughout the presentation, Kanye seemed to pause at length before he answered Tucker’s questions. At first it was kind of off-putting; as if Kanye couldn’t organize his thoughts. Then I realized that he was carefully considering the impact of what he was about to say and whether his livelihood and safety would be endangered by his response. When he did begin to speak, he seemed to recommit himself to a pretty consistent message; no one tells me what to think or say.

All in all, it was a very impressive performance.

Kayne is a goofball,a troublemaker and is profoundly insecure based on what I know of him. but sometimes he says or does something good, where everyone benefits from the discussion; this is one of those times.

All Lives Matter.
BLM’ers need to grow up and deal with that fact. They don’t have a monopoly on being worthy of compassion and empathy. In year 2020, you were not allowed to say that publicly without being directly challenged or threatened. That is slowly changing.

BLM is a Marxist vanguard group and was from the start.

Violence...in any form ..should not be tolerated.

Say whatever you want but if you act on it..and it’s not self defense..there needs to be consequences.

Watching the interview, I think he has something like ADD - his thoughts jump around all over the place and he has a lot of things he wants to say at once.

All in all, he came across as a guy who's thinking for himself and refuses to be told what to say or believe. I also think he changes his mind a lot and at the drop of a hat.

Indeed it will.

“Joe Biden Doesn’t Care about Black People.”.

I don't know, he's Peurto Rican.

He runs with that Martha's Stewart crowd that were so kind to transport people from their run down community to a nice military base.

"Ima let you finish, Taylor, but Donald Trump is one of the greatest Presidents of all time!"

Who woulda thunk back then that Kanye was the smart one?

But Trump turned out to be a great president.

Corn Pop begs to differ...

Seriously, if for nothing else, God bless Kanye for speaking the truth about abortion, Planned Parenthood and Margaret Sanger. Just on that basis alone, the man is ok in my book.
