Kanye West's spent nearly $6 million of his own money on his presidential campaign in its first month alone

Randall Hill/Reuters

The filing, which covers fundraising and spending between July 15 and August 30, shows that the rapper has mostly self-funded his long-shot run, loaning the campaign $6.8 million.

Many have questioned why West has entered the race, speculating that he's running to drum up attention for a new album or to hurt Democratic nominee Joe Biden's chances of beating President Donald Trump, who West has supported in the past.

This is a gigantic scam by Kanye to draw black votes away from Biden. I hope people don't fall for this scam.

But he received 5 million in forgivable ppp loans so he basically spent 1 million 🤷🏻‍♀️

No worries. Trump Foundation will reimburse him from funds appropriated for Veterans. But only “loser” Veterans.

All for Trump, I presume.

He has lost way more than money. He has no credibility, no integrity, no pride.

🤦‍♀️

What average person can do this? Seems only people with money can be in politics. Just shines more light on the problems. Politics has more to do with how much money you have than your good ideas.

Basically Kanye West & Michael Bloomberg wasted money that could be helping people stay in their homes during a pandemic.

Just throw it straight in the bin; Itll be quicker and easier.

I hope the wife is gonna save him, again.

Just throw it straight in the bin; Itll be quicker and easier.

That’s good!! This money can now help the economy instead of sleeping in a saving bank account!

Must be nice

🤣

He is idiot!

Don’t worry for kayne I am sure realDonaldTrump will slip him a few dollars
