Kanye West has dropped his 2020 presidential bid, according to a new report.
The 43-year-old rapper's campaign has reportedly been suspended less than two weeks after he shocked the nation with a tweet that confirmed his decision to run for president of the United States in November.
According to a new report from Intelligencer, a "get-out-the-vote specialist" named Steve Kramer claims West is already "out" after the Yeezy founder hired both "paid and volunteer" staff to help him secure signatures in Florida and South Carolina to get him on the ballot.

Marx said religion is the opiate of the masses only because social media had not yet been rolled out to the hungry chicks.

Remember that he has been diagnosed and treated for manic depression / bi-polar disease. Classic example: planning a huge party with magicians and ponies one day and the next day crying and calling it off (or crying and having someone else to contact everyone that it is off). Grandiose thinking, etc. *** Just a thought, not nearly a certainty. As already pointed out, this could be a publicity stunt. I don't care about him one way or another, except as a [former?] Trump supporter.

He seems to be one of those people who just runs his mouth because he likes to hear himself talk. Then later he (or more likely, someone else) has to clean up his mess!

He's nuts. And stupid. He always has been, and he always will be. His attempts to rehabilitate himself by becoming a Republican hurt us more than they helped. By association, he's made it harder for serious African-Americans who were questioning the Democrat orthodoxy. You can almost hear the disparaging conversations: "So, you're going full Kanye on us now?"
What an embarrassment.

Nice Ploy to sell his new CD's...
Nice Try, maybe you should have looked at how both parties prevent anyone not blessed by the party from getting on the actual ballot...not as simple as doing Rap now is it?

It takes a lot of work to run for, and be president. Kanye could not make one day of the hours put in by Trump. Trump's Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, used to look relaxed and rested. I saw him the other day and he looked exhausted, after only a few months on Trump's schedule.

Karl Rove had his white board on Fox a while back after his big announcement came out, and pretty much said he has missed so many filing deadlines and had so many things to get done on a deadline, that it was not going to happen. Bottom line is it was all a big publicity stunt for him to sell his new record. Cashin in big time. He ain't no dummy. He ain't to candidate for President either.

It may have been a publicity stunt, but if he had stayed in the race he would have likely drawn votes away from POTUS Trump.

Manic-depressive.....that has to be a PITA from the inside, and it's sure confusing at times from the outside.

Golly, I have to publicly admit I was way off. When he first announced, I wrote here that he will change his mind in two weeks. Only lasted ten days. I'm not as good at predicting the future as I thought.

I wouldn't know his "music" if it were playing on the radio right now, mainly because I'm 100% confident that I would never listen to a radio station that would play his "music".
But he is really entertaining, in that same way that "a train hits an 18 wheeler" is entertaining. You know you shouldn't be looking, but you just can't help it!!!

We didn't need that circus. There are enough distractions. Thank you, Lord.

Such a "bombshell". His new CD is a wrap, and now apparently so is the "Birthday Party". Nothing like a bit of hype and publicity for the West family, who ordinarily live in splendid seclusion... "Ye" said to an interviewer he no longer supports Trump and that Biden was not "special." Let's see where the circus next appears...
