Jim Jefferies: Trump-supporter, Kanye West may be the mythical black Republican; a being previously thought to dwell in the realm of unicorns and dragons. Kanye could be that fantastical creature in the flesh. Like Trump, West maintains a certain level of crazy at all times, but a political alignment to the GOP surpasses even West’s observation that ” 400 years of slavery sounds like a choice.”
Writer Curtis Cook weighs in with the black perspective. Yes Kanye is crazy. He’s all about self-promotion sans dignity…Like someone else, someone equally unbalanced, who adores the spotlight however unflattering it may be. Not insignificantly, in Kanye, Trump can truly say he has a black friend. The black Republican may remain a rarity, but it sounds as if Kanye has found a red-headed brother from a different mother in Trump. Another myth bites the dust. Keep an eye out for low-flying unicorns.
