Kanye sat down with Forbes to discuss his upcoming plans to run for president in 2020 and in the new interview Kanye said he’s changing his stance on the president.
When asked about his previous support for Trump Ye said, “Trump is the closest president we’ve had in years to allowing God to still be part of the conversation.”
When asked about his MAGA hat moment Kanye said he's taking the red hat off. “I am taking the red hat off, with this interview,” Kanye said. He went on to explain that he wore the hat “as a protest to the segregation of votes in the Black community. Also, other than the fact that I like Trump hotels and the saxophones in the lobby.”
Kanye says he was disappointed to learn that the president retreated to a bunker during the Washington D.C. protests.
