ON THURSDAY NIGHT DURING HIS SAINT PUBLIC TO HER, KANYE
WEST PROUDLY ANNOUNCED THAT HE DID NOT VOTE BUT IF HE HAD
VOTED, HE WOULD'VE VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP.
HIS FANS AT THE CONCERT THEN PROCEEDED TO BOO HIM AND
THEN AN ONLINE FIRE STORMED A ROUGH DAY.
TAKE A LOOK AT THIS FRANKLY BIZARRE VIDEO.
>> I TOLD YOU, BUT IF I WOULD'VE VOTED, I WOULD'VE VOTED FOR
TRUMP.
THAT DON'T MEAN THAT I DON'T THINK THAT LIKEWISE MATTER, THAT
DON'T MEAN THAT I DON'T BELIEVE IN WOMEN'S RIGHT, THAT DON'T
MEAN I DON'T BELIEVE IN GAY MARRIAGE, THAT DON'T BELIEVE
THAT I DON'T BELIEVE IN THESE
THINGS BECAUSE THAT WAS THE GUY I WOULD'VE VOTED FOR.
>> SO THEN HE PROCEEDS TO TALK ABOUT HOW PEOPLE ON HIS
TEAM, SOME VOTED FOR TRUMP AND SOMEBODY FOR HILLARY, AND
THEY STILL MANAGE TO PUT ON THIS CONCERT BECAUSE THAT IS THE
ULTIMATE TEST OF UNITED NATION APPARENTLY DIED HE ALSO HAS
HIS BIGGER DISCUSSION ABOUT PEOPLE LIVING IN THEIR BUBBLES
ON THE INTERNET WHICH I DO THINK WAS AN INTERESTING CONVERSATION,
MAYBE NOT THE BEST TIME BECAUSE IT TOOK LIKE 15 MINUTES OUT OF
HIS CONCERT TO DO THIS AND WE'RE GOING TO GET INTO A LITTLE MORE
VIDEO BUT I WANT TO HEAR WHAT YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT THIS 1ST.
SAYING HE DIDN'T VOTE AND THAT HE WOULD'VE IT FOR TRUMP.
>> I THINK THAT KANYE IS SMART OR DUMB.
THE JURY IS IN, HE IS AN IDIOT.
DONALD TRUMP PROVED THAT YOU COULD BE GOOD AT ONE THING
AND STILL BE AN IDIOT ABOUT EVERYTHING ELSE.
THE GUY WHO REALLY PROVED THAT WAS BEN CARSON.
LITERALLY A BRAIN SURGEON AND COULDN'T FIGURE OUT
ANYTHING ELSE IN HIS LIFE.
KANYE I GUESS MAKES GOODS MUSIC AND OTHER PEOPLE BY HIS
ALBUMS AND GO TO HIS CONCERTS.
THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT HE HAS TO BE SMART ABOUT POLITICS OR NAME
ANY OTHER TOPIC.
I REALLY THINK HE IS A BUFFOON.
LOOK, YOU REALLY COULDN'T SAY ANYTHING WERE START YOU SAY I
DIDN'T VOTE, I DON'T CARE WHO
WINS OR LOSES AND IT WASN'T LIKE A PROTEST NONVOTING WAS I
DON'T CARE BECAUSE I AM AN IDIOT.
AND THEN I COMPOUNDED BY SAYING I WOULD'VE VOTED FOR TRUMP THAT
IF YOU THOUGHT HE WAS SAVVY.
HE GOT BOOED BY THIS CROWD.
>> HIS WHOLE POINT WAS I DIDN'T VOTE, I WOULD'VE FOR TRUMP,
HE IS A GENIUS BECAUSE HE WON, NOT BECAUSE OF ANYTHING
ELSE BUT BECAUSE HE 1.
I'M NOT CONCERNED WITH HOW THE JOB WORKS OUT, I'M WORRIED
ABOUT THE APPROACH.
HE SAYS HE'LL RUN IN 2020.
HE SAYS I DIDN'T VOTE FOR OVER ME INTO IT IN FOUR YEARS.
>> EARMUFFS TRUMP IN A LOT OF WAYS.
I DON'T WHO IS RIGHT OR WRONG OR WHO GETS CRUSHED, WHO WON?
>> AND THEIR WIVES BOTH GET NAKED.
>> I SERIOUSLY THINK HE DIDN'T VOTE FOR A REASON.
I THINK HE WANTED TO BE ON THE WINNING SIDE.
I DON'T THINK HE IS A GENIUS, I DON'T THINK IT'S IN,
LOCATED THAT YOU COULD SAY HE IS TALENTED, YOU NORMAL DEBATE
ABOUT THAT.
>> HAVE YOU SEEN MY TWISTED DARK FANTASY.
HE IS A GENIUS, BUT HE IS A MUSICAL GENIUS.
THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE OF COLOR WHICH IS WHY I FIGHT.
WHY DO WE ALWAYS HAVE TO ASSIGN, THE ASSIGNMENT OF
LEADERSHIP TO PEOPLE OF COLOR WHO ARE SUCCESSFUL OR FAMOUS.
WHAT IS I COME FROM?
WHY DO WE CARE WHAT KANYE WEST THINKS ABOUT WHO SHOULD BE
THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
WHAT IS IT THAT QUALIFIES HIM FOR THAT.
EVERY TIME SOMEONE HAS FOLLOWERS THEY BECOME OUR LEADERS.
SAYS HUGH?
IS STEVE JOBS A LEADER TO WHITE PEOPLE?
>> THAT'S A REALLY INTERESTING POINT THAT
>> EVERY SINGLE TIME A PERSON OF COLOR SPEAKS PUBLICLY, THEY
BECOME OUR LEADERSHIP.
I CHOOSE HIM.
>> AND EVEN THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH PEOPLE OF COLOR.
FOR CELEBRITY, PEOPLE CARE WHO THEY ARE VOTING FOR AND
WHERE THEY WILL ANSWER POLICIES.
THE FACT THAT WE GIVE SO MUCH CREDIBILITY TO CELEBRITIES, I
THINK IT'S SILLY IN ITSELF BUT A LOT OF PEOPLE DO GIVE CONNIE A
LOT OF CREDIT AND THIS NEXT VIDEO THAT I'M ABOUT TO
SHOW YOU REALLY PISTOL OUT OF PEOPLE OFF, EVEN CALLING
FOR SOME TO BOYCOTT CONNIE.
LET'S TAKE A LOOK.
>> SPECIFICALLY TO BLACK PEOPLE, STOP FOCUSING ON RACISM.
THIS WORLD IS RACIST, OKAY?
LET'S STOP BEING DISTRACTED TO FOCUS ON THAT AS MUCH.
IT'S JUST A TALKING FACT.
WE ARE IN A RACIST COUNTRY.
PERIOD.
DO NOT ALLOW PEOPLE TO MAKE US TALK ABOUT THAT SO LONG.
LET'S TALK ABOUT WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT.
JUST STOP TALKING ABOUT THAT.
IT'S RACIST, OKAY?
IT'S A RACIST COUNTRY.
PERIOD.
NOTHING IS GOING TO INSTANTLY BE ABLE TO CHANGE THAT BECAUSE
OF THEIR VIEWS.
>> I WANT TO BE CLEAR, I ARTIE KNEW HE SAID THAT.
I WANTED TO CALL HIM ALL THOSE NAMES JUST ON HIM BEING AN
IDIOT JUST ARE VOTING FOR TRUMP DIVING CAME OUT AND SAID I
WOULD'VE VOTED FOR TRUMP BECAUSE I'M RICH AND HE IS GOING TO
GIVE ME A GIANT TAX CUP DIE WOULD SAY YOUR DECK BUT I
GET IT OUT THAT'S NOT STUPID.
ACCORDING TO OTHERS, HE ALSO SAID I HOPE THEY BUILD A
WALL AND I HOPE THEY GET RID OF THEM ALL.
THAT'S JUST A TWEAK, I DIDN'T SEE IT ON TAPE.
IF YOU SAID THAT, THAT IS WAY WORSE.
I WOULD BE SURPRISED.
LET'S DISCOUNT THAT ONE BECAUSE IT IS HEARSAY, BUT STILL THE
WHOLE LET'S NOT TALK ABOUT RACE, THAT SET ME OFF.
BY THE WAY, IT IS.
IF YOU ARE DRIVING IN THE WRONG PLACE, WALKING IN THE WRONG
PLACE AND THEY DON'T KNOW YOU ARE A CELEBRITY, ALL OF A
SUDDEN IT IS GOING TO BE YOUR PROBLEM AGAIN.
LARGELY, IT HASN'T BEEN YOUR PROBLEM AND SO NOW, YOU
KNOW YOU SAY A GUY GET SHOT IN LOUISIANA OR MINNESOTA.
THAT'S NOT ME, I'M FAMOUS.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
LET'S STOP TALKING ABOUT RACISM.
>> THIS IS THE SAME GUY WHO SAID 11
YEARS AGO THAT GEORGE BUSH DIDN'T CARE ABOUT BLACK
PEOPLE DIE THINK PEOPLE ARE SO UPSET ABOUT IT BECAUSE HE
CHANGED HIS TUNE SINCE HE BECAME A PRIVILEGED PERSON.
>> SUCKER BERG, THIS IS THE GUY WHO WOULDN'T CRIED SAYING
WHITE PEOPLE ARE NOT GIVING ME ENOUGH MONEY.
HE DEMANDED LIKE $50 MILLION TO SOMETHING FROM ZUCKERBERG.
YOU REMEMBER THAT?
HE'S LIKE WHERE WHITE BILLIONAIRES BEING RACIST AND
NOT GIVING ME TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS BECAUSE I'M BROKE.
>> AND NIKE 2.
>> ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU CARED ABOUT RACISM WHEN YOU WANTED
$15 MILLION FOR NO REASON AT ALL.
>> MAYBE HE WILL BE A GOOD DASH
>> HE IS A DONALD TRUMP OF THE
MUSICAL WORLD BECAUSE HE
MAKES NO SENSE WHEN HE TALKS AND OFTEN CONTRADICTS HIMSELF
AND DOESN'T CARE, YOU CAN FILL A STADIUM.
>> THAT'S PRETTY GOOD.
I'M NOT SURE HE IS GOING TO KEEP ON FILLING THE STADIUM
STYLE LEASE TRUMP HAS ENOUGH SENSE TO GET A SENSE OF
WHERE THE CROWD IS.
HE DID NOT GET A GOOD SENSE OF WHERE HIS CROWD WAS DARK
>> EVEN SAID IT BACKWARDS DIE FORGET TO DO THAT, HE SHOULD OF
SAID I BELIEVE IN WOMEN'S
RIGHTS, I BELIEVE IN PROTECTING, BUT I WOULD'VE THAT HE DID
IT BACKWARD.
I WOULD'VE VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP.
YOUR HE LOST THEM.
YOU HAVE TO SAY THE THINGS FIRST AND THEN YOU COME WITH THE
THING AND HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.
>> YOU KNOW WHY HE DIDN'T DO THAT?
BECAUSE HE IS STUPID DIED TO SIMPLE INFLAMMATION.
>> IT IS A MAKE SENSE TO YOU CAN'T SAY YOU BELIEVE IN
ALL THE THINGS AND THAT YOU VOTED FOR DONALD TRUMP THAT
DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
>> HE'S AN IDIOT.
THIS SIMPLE THING IS ITS ATTENTION.
CHICK-FIL-A, WE TRIED AND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
WE DO THE STORY THE OTHER DAY ABOUT HOW THEIR GROUPS ON
BOTH SIDES THAT ARE TO BOYCOTT NETFLIX.
AND M&MS.
IT'S NOT CAN HAPPEN.
IT'S OKAY.
HE IS GOING TO SAY RIDICULOUS THINGS AND YOU ARE GOING TO
SAY I HATE HIM SO MUCH I WONDER WHAT THIS NEW ALBUM IS LIKE.
>> BUT THAT'S THE SAME THING THAT WE DID WITH DONALD TRUMP.
WE HATED EVERYTHING THAT HE WAS SAYING BUT WE STILL COVERED
AND WE STILL TALKED ABOUT IT CONSTANTLY AND LOOK WHAT
HAPPENED.
>> I HEAR YOU GUYS.
>> CONNIE IS GOING TO BE PRESIDENT IF YOU DON'T STOP IT.
>> I'M NOT SAYING I'M NOT QUITE A BY HIS MUSIC, BECAUSE I
DON'T REALLY CARE WHAT THEIR OPINIONS ARE.
THERE'S ONLY ONE MUSICIAN WHOSE OPINION I CARE ABOUT AND
IT'S BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN.
TO BE FAIR, TOM MORELLO.
OKAY, WHAT DID THE BEASTIE BOYS THINK?
I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T CARE.
IT'S TRICKY.
>> THAT'S ACTUALLY RUN DMC.
>> I'M NOT SAYING TO BUY STUFF.
MAYBE I'LL BUY ANOTHER ONE OF HIS SONGS IF IT'S GOOD.
I'M SAYING SOMETHING VERY SIMPLE.
MORON.
