Kanye announces presidential run in 2024

Kanye West has officially announced plans for a 2024 presidential run and has hired Milo Yiannopolous as his campaign manager.

In a video posted to Twitter Sunday, West confirmed that Yiannopoulos is working on his campaign.

“This is Milo right here, working on the campaign,” West said in the video posted by “PatriotTakes” Twitter account.

Nypost.com reports: “Is that an announcement?” one of the men asks as they both laugh.

“I guess it is,” Yiannopoulos — who most recently worked as an unpaid intern for right-wing firebrand Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene — replied chuckling. “Thanks, I accept.”

The cameraman then asked West, “So you are running?”

“Yes,” Ye answered with a laugh. “It’s simple ’cause ain’t nobody can tell me, you know, ‘you should say this, you shouldn’t say that,’ you know? It’s just we’re moving towards the future.”

West and Yiannopoulos have a shared experience of making horrific remarks and quickly being slammed by the public.

West, who changed his legal name to Ye, tweeted about going “death con 3 On JEWISH PEOPLE” in early October and was subsequently banned from the social media platform.

Earlier Sunday, the musician-turned-designer posted a message to his Twitter profile to see if his account was reinstated since Elon Musk took over the company.

“Testing Testing Seeing if my Twitter is unblocked,” West wrote to his nearly 32 million followers.

Musk, who bought the company for $44 billion, said last month that West’s account was restored before the acquisition and he was not consulted beforehand.

The billionaire restored former President Donald Trump’s Twitter account a day earlier after polling users. Trump, who also announced a 2024 White House run, was dumped from Twitter in the aftermath of the Jan. 6, 2021 Capitol riot.

Yiannopoulos, who remains off Twitter, had largely disappeared from the public eye since 2017 when he made comments allegedly advocating for pedophilia — stating that sex between 13-year-olds and older men can be “life-affirming.”

He made headlines over the summer with the announcement of his humble, unpaid gig working for Taylor Greene.

  1. Seriously speaking, I will vote for him. compared to what we have in the white house right now, it would be about 353% improvement. Kanye can complete his sentences, and walk stairs, and appears to be a good soul all around. but we never know what is truly in a man’s heart, we must look at the fruit he bares. He married a kardashian, so the jury is out on him with me still.

  2. Unbelievable Well he only has 400 million but he will get some backers serving the race war. And that could produce even more conflict “They will like that.

  3. What a joke. The last thing we need is an MK-Ultra mind controlled cabal puppet who was stupid enough to marry a Kartrashian in our govmt. I don’t trust him.

  4. After Obama’s first term, won’t vote for another liberal or democrat ever again. Realized, these career politician lawyers are the worst thing, as bad as actors or doctors running for office.
