Kanye West Says He'd Have Voted For Donald Trump -- If He'd Cast A Ballot

Kanye West  just endorsed Donald Trump .

The rapper didn’t comment on the president-elect during Trump’s campaign as GOP nominee. But he confessed on stage  at the SAP Center in San Jose, California, on Thursday night that he would have voted for Trump  if he had cast a ballot in the presidential election  this month. 

West revealed all during what Billboard.com described as a “lengthy political speech ” on his “Saint Pablo” tour, in which he also spoke about racism and his own plans to run for president in 2020.

“I said something that was kind of politically correct. I told y’all I didn’t vote, right?” West reportedly said. “What I didn’t tell you… but if I were to have voted, I would have voted on Trump.”

Unverified videos posted online show the crowd greeting his statement with a majority of boos and a spattering of cheers.

Twitter user @RaptorJesuss  documented West’s extended address in real time. Here are a selection of the tweets, including an image of his ticket which he used to verify his attendance.
