Khloé Kardashian Rocks “Kanye for President” Hat
Written by SOURCE on January 25, 2019
Though the 2020 presidential race is just starting to heat up, it appears Khloé Kardashian is already looking toward the 2024 election. And no, the reality TV star hasn’t announced her bid, but she has shown her support for possible candidate Kanye West.
Khloé was potted at Topanga Canyon Mall on Thursday filming scenes for Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Khloé, who was accompanied by her older sister Kourtney, was rocking a head-turning hat that read: “Kanye for President.”
Khloé’s brother-in-law has continued to tease his presidential run over the past several years, but has never laid out his political philosophies or stances.
“When I talk about the idea of being president, I’m not saying I have any political views, I don’t have views on politics,” he said during a 2016 interview with BBC Radio 1. “I just have a view on humanity, on people, on the truth. If there is anything that I can do with my time and my day, to somehow make a difference while I’m alive I’m going to try to do it.”
Kanye has received backlash for his ongoing support of President Donald Trump and the Republican Party. The rapper has rocked the MAGA hat without a hint of irony, has suggested blacks were being controlled by the left, and was associated with a line of “Blexit” merch, which encouraged blacks to abandon the Democratic Party. In October 2018, Kanye attempted to distance himself from the Blexit movement, claiming he had been “used to spread messages I don’t believe in.” He also claimed that he was stepping away from the political realm and redirecting his focus to music. Well, his hiatus from politics didn’t last too long.
Earlier this month, Kanye reiterated his support for Trump and said he intended to wear his MAGA during all performances. He also posted a tweet that suggested he would run for president in 2024.
Kanye also spoke about his political ambitions during an interview with Power 92 back in August. When asked if he would vie to become commander in chief, Ye responded: “Yes. It 100 percent could happen. 2024. If I decide to do it, it will be done. I’m not gonna try.”
Judging by Khloé’s hat, the multi-hyphenate has at least one vote.
