Donald Trump supporters can't contain excitement on seeing Kanye West

At the time, Donald Trump supporters were waving 'Make America Great Again' flags but as soon as they saw Ye and Censori, they gathered around his truck.

The publication also reported that one person even remarked, “Oh, it’s Kanye! What the hell?” while others began yelling and screaming in excitement.

The ‘Donda’ singer spoke with some of the people while his wife appeared not to be very comfortable with all the attention. After spending a few moments, the couple drove away from the gathering while the people roared, “We love you, Kanye!”

Kanye West yet to declare his support for Donald Trump in 2024 election

Though Kanye West has yet not declared who he is supporting in this election, his presence at the rally hints he is still pro-Trump.

The 45th president had invited him to the Oval Office in October 2018 alongside late NFL legend Jim Brown.

Trump said at the time, as reported by the Daily Mail, “Kanye it is great to be with you and these are two friends of mine and Kanye has been a friend of mine for a long time.”

West also shared his thoughts while donning the Make America Great Again cap.

Kanye West said ‘Black people have to take responsibility’

“It was something about when I put this hat on, it made me feel like Superman - you made a Superman - that's my favorite superhero and made a Superman cape for me also as a guy that looks up to you,” Kanye West said to Donald Trump at that time.

The 47-year-old further reportedly told Trump, “You talk about police murders, which we definitely have to discuss. And we have to bring nobility to that to the police officers and make that police officers are just like us.”

“This is whole hate building and that's a major thing about racial tension. We also as Black people, we have to take responsibility for what we're doing. We kill each other more than police officers and that's not to say that the police officer is not at issue, because they are place, a position of power,” West added.

In response, Trump had asserted, “So they have to do something and I am totally open, if we can do it a different way, Kanye, I'm totally open but they have to do. We all agree they have to do something.”
