Kanye West for President?

[Puppycow]

The more I think about it, the less it seems like a cynical ploy to help Trump and the more I think the dude is just nuts and delusional. He has delusions of grandeur. He's also gotten religion. His latest album is called "Jesus is King". Subtle. I took a quick listen out of curiosity. It's exactly what the name suggests: entirely Jesus-worshiping stuff. Not very interesting musically.

Kanye's recent proclamations of slavery being a choice is bound to get a few Republican votes.

Oh, yeah. If this helps Trump or not, it may not all be cleverly orchestrated. I mean, does anyone still think that Trump is the Chess Wizard? Has he or Kanye ever played any kind of chess, let alone 4 dimensional?

The fact that actual human beings on this planet (not referring to anyone on this thread) genuinely care about or value anything this sub-literate, narcissistic ass-clown has to say - to say nothing of the notion that any of them might actually pull the lever for him - means I've pretty much decided on my vote come this November.

Has Giant Meteor managed to get a campaign organization up and running?

Do we get to have a primary between Giant Meteor and Sweet Meteor of Death? I was a supporter of SMOD in 2016, but it let me down. How does this newcomer differentiate itself from SMOD?

Apparently Kanye has selected a running mate.

And yes, I know it's a parody, but is it really?

Kanye West no longer supports Trump—“I am taking the red hat off, with this interview,” he told
@RandallLane
—and intends to run for election under the banner of “the Birthday Party.”

He’s picked Michelle Tidball, a preacher from Wyoming, as running mate

The more I read about this the more I'm convinced he's in the midst of a bi-polar mania.

 

[alfaniner]

He got on my **** list the second he plopped his ass on the Lincoln Resolute desk in the Oval Office, topped off by swearing. "This ************ right here..."

Yes, I know there were other sordid things that happened right there, but it wasn't in front of a gaggle of cameras.

 

[TheSupermeerkat]

West tweeted last week that he would be running for president in November’s election, despite having missed the filing deadline to get on the ballot in most states.*

The rapper told Forbes he thinks he can argue that he should be allowed extra time due the coronavirus pandemic.*

"I’m speaking with experts, I’m going to speak with Jared Kushner, the White House, with [Joe] Biden,” he said.

The man is delusional if he thinks Jared Kushner is an expert on anything.

Cthulhu lost in the Primary against Trump in 2016 because Cthulhu was the lesser evil - what makes you think Giant Meteor has a chance?

That's so funny. He thinks The Kushner boy is an expert. That's just proof he's still filthy Trumptrash. Only a Trump voter would be stupid enough to think the Kushner boy knows anything about anything. Their kind just aren't that bright.

In a twist on the normal flow of campaign finance I hear it's getting under the table donations from the Rees-Moggs and their disaster capitalist friends. The bigger the disaster the more to gain for an enterprising chap with plenty of free capital!

I now have a wonderful mental image of Great Cthulhu stood behind a campaign podium with two little fat Trump legs kicking among his tenticles. "..and when asked to respond to the suggestion that he was the 'lesser' of two evils Candidate Cthulhu briefly hesitated to compose an answer and then ate Candidate Trump. And now back to the studio."

Trump won the primary, though. Kanye's left it all a bit late.

Is it really "a bit late", though?

Can he actually get the nomination in enough states (if that's how it works)?

he can get the nomination of any party that wants him as nominee, but not by balllot.

But he could run as completely independent and hope to get Written In in States where he passed the deadline to register.

Joel Osteen?

Now they're all really taking the piss.

The "elite" are all in each others' pockets, and it's people like us who make the cogs turn the wheels that churn the media.

It doesn't matter who wins, it just looks bad in the headlines. Good people on all sides are trying to help. Some just act like fools or get treated like them.

 

[Skeptic Ginger]

He is a trump lover.

Maybe his idea is to deliberately help trump win by stealing votes that might otherwise go to biden. I guess the big question is... How much popularity does he have in the African American community these days. Enough to swing the results of a close state?

I quick scan of search hits suggests this very thing.

And he's publicly endorsed Trump.

That's not a bad assessment. Kanye has talked about his bi-polar diagnosis and struggle.

If we want to go down a plausible CT path, could be he's being egged on by people behind a Cambridge Analytica type effort.
