It only has to work a teeny tinny bit in enough swing states to give Trump the EC.  Trump has 40+ish % of all voters now and more in a lot of swing states.  You don't think maybe 5%,  of people that go out and vote, that would not vote for Trump. might vote for West? 
The flaw in your theory is that one would have to be a brain dead moron to vote for West - and the R's have a lock on that demographic.

Apparently he did some sort of interview yesterday with Alex Jones on infowar. Wore a black stocking over his face the whole time. Brought along Nick Fuentes too. Talked about how he liked Hitler. That's what got the Republicans Judiciary Committee Twitter Handler to finally take down the tweet praising Kayne.

Yea, Ye has gone off the rails.

He's taken the "love thy neighbor" concept from the New Testament and is trying to apply it to a ridiculous extreme in order to then to justify some of the more frindgy parts of black nationalism under a libertarian framework. There is a kernel of truth but its a very nuanced point of view that cannot possibly be reduced to twitter-length explanation and if you don't already hold similar beliefs, you'll never get it.

Sounds like the standard sort of wisdom you could get from any homeless profit-priest

Could someone explain the hood to me?

He's been doing it for a while. Tabula Rasa and all that. Identity becomes self-confining. Sort of Worhol as performative art.


"Don’t embarrass yourself trying to chase your dreams. Save face. Save face. That’s why I got this f***ing mask on, because I ain’t worried about saving face. F**k my face," he told the crowd during the concert.

“F**k whatever my face is supposed to mean and f**k whatever the name Kanye is supposed to mean, it’s about my dreams! And it’s about anybody’s dreams.

"It’s about creating. It’s not about the idea about being a f***ing celebrity.”

Kanye is all about destroying now. He had his creative period, now he's just another high-profile loon with too much money.

He is bipolar and not taking his meds. We are witnessing the actions of a mentally ill person who happens to have money, a platform and people that pay attention to him.

You really do need to separate the racism from the crazy as much as I agree with you. He is absolutely untreated unmedicated unhinged type 1 bipolar. It is a really ugly disease and tremendously difficult to manage. But there are plenty of bipolar people who are not racist. It seems Kanye was always racist but that the crazy part is just making him unashamed of it now

I had a friend back there in high school,who put forth the proposition that just because Hitler was a sociopathic psychotic murdering asshole, his offspring might be great philanthropists, or social healers, and therefore if any offspring should be found (His idea was Argentina, or Brazil), that they should be studied, and raised in a manner that might eventually put them in positions of great power.... Like head of the UN, or the World bank, or other such institutions.
I tended to agree that the sins of the father should not be laid to blame on the son.... BUT I just wouldn't take that chance with the sons of Hitler, nor Trump, nor Putin, Stalin, PolPot, Ho Chi Mihn, or about a hundred other nut cases.... Including the daughter of Dick Cheney.
