Written by SOURCE on October 28, 2018
Kanye West continues his love affair with Trump, as it was reported that the rapper has lent his talents as a fashion designer to a campaign that is encouraging black people to exit the Democratic party.
On Saturday (Oct. 27), at Turning Point USA’s Young Black Leadership Summit, Kanye West revealed his shirt design and logo for “Blexit” — a movement that urges black Americans to “exit” the political party that with most are aligned. These shirts, which bare designs that say “Blexit” and “We Free,” are another act of solidarity with the conservative ideologies of his self-proclaimed “brother,” President Donald Trump.
“Blexit is a renaissance and I am blessed to say that this logo, these colors, were created by my dear friend and fellow superhero Kanye West,” TPUSA’s Communications Director, Candace Owen, stated in allusion to Kanye’s recent visit to the oval office where he said Trump’s MAGA hat makes him feel like “Superman.” Owen then went on to claim that West, who was not in attendance but there “in spirit,” has taken “one of the boldest steps in America to open a conversation we have needed to have.”
The clothes are also apart of the Blexit’s online campaign and will be featured on the Blexit tour which starts next year and will make a stop in West’s hometown of Chicago. In related-news, Kanye donated $73,540 to Democratic Chicago mayoral candidate Amara Enyia.
