mitchellreports chrislhayes I thought he might take some Trump votes

chrislhayes Start a boycott of Kim and Kanye products and see what happens next. I bet all this nonsense ends. BoycottKanye BoycottTheKardashians boycottKimandKanye BoycottKanyeWest

chrislhayes People who vote for Kanye are as demented as him.

mitchellreports chrislhayes The Know Nothings The Bull Moose The Kanyes

mitchellreports chrislhayes Looney Tunes!

chrislhayes I think you are all wrong. Republicans will vote for Kanye West instead of trump to show they are loyal to party but really hate trump. GO KANYE...

chrislhayes The fact that Trumple can’t be controlled & is circling the drain?🤔

chrislhayes Oh please. Kanye West is a sicko.Blacks will regret voting for him for sure.

mitchellreports chrislhayes Come on! Who could be devious enough to come up with that scheme?

chrislhayes Oh,that joke is hysterical!

chrislhayes biden should do the same. Put MittRomney SenatorRomney on the ballot.

chrislhayes Trump said he wasn't helping West

SherryW85476616 chrislhayes And he's playing perfectly into their plans. Anyone who votes gor him is complicit in this scheme too. We all have choices to make. AmericaBetterWithBiden Biden2020

chrislhayes I’m, they don’t need it. Have you WATCHED Joe lately?

chrislhayes Why does Trump seriously think that black people are THAT dumb? Is he testing our intelligence. There is only a small group of idiots who are gonna fall for it. And the bota in Twitter DON'T COUNT. BOTS can't vote!!!

chrislhayes I am guessing he’s willing to be used.

ron_carver chrislhayes Is this an actual news organization?

chrislhayes Hey kids here’s a Black man! he’s very rich & famous, knows less than 0 about Black history, disparages women including his wife, and is in the middle of a psychotic break. His team also faked the signatures he needs to get on state ballots. You’re gonna LOVE him!

chrislhayes Didnt we do the amazingly unqualified thing already? How is that working out so far? Just a media whore

chrislhayes Only person he's going to effect is Trump when Trump's black voters flock away to the person described as mentally unfit by his wife. 😉Good choices GOP

chrislhayes KANYE 2020!

ron_carver chrislhayes

chrislhayes I like your entertainment. So please entertain this plea. Kanye, C a n y e please don’t let nobody use your mind but you.

chrislhayes Seriously desoerate pkan of action and I think younger voters eho are truly engaged will not fall for it.

chrislhayes I can’t believe he and his family would let him be used this way ! Exspecialy when when Mr West wife says he is having a break down . There is no bottom to Donald Trump his neice was right .

chrislhayes Think about it. The GOP wants to take votes away from Trump so he will lose. Most of the GOP want Trump out of office as well. So what better way to do it!!

chrislhayes And if Dems want to siphon off a Trump and GOP votes, they’ll need to get a white supremacist on the ballot. That itself is the saddest fact.

chrislhayes it's sad that it's so obvious

chrislhayes Whaaaaaatttt... I don't believe people are actually discussing Kanye in a serious forum

chrislhayes I'M SURE KRAZY KANYE WILL HELP DOPEY DONALD WIN BLACK VOTES. HAHAHAHAHA… BUT THE DEMS HAVE A PLAN…

chrislhayes

chrislhayes If a large enough group would rather vote for Kanye West than your candidate then you should have picked a better candidate.

chrislhayes Lol no news to talk about negative nellies

chrislhayes Ivanka Trump is behind this move.

chrislhayes Why is Kanye allowing himself to be used like this by Trump ?

chrislhayes Mr. West should be ashamed of himself

chrislhayes I wonder just how much money trump is paying Kanye.

chrislhayes They can do everything they want to get him on the ballot. But he will never be the black Ross Perot.

chrislhayes Is the left concerned black Americans will vote for a person based on their skin color?

chrislhayes People are smarter than that, give them a little credit!!

chrislhayes I sure hope ppl see right through this and don’t fall for Trumpys plan..

chrislhayes Well..you like to think people are actually smart enough to see thru this Republicans will be eating crow..

chrislhayes so gop TeamTrump realDonaldTrump hoping all the black voters that he has done so much for, more than any president, to vote for KW instead of the chosen one who overwhelmingly he has done so much for? this is a sitcom calamity. are you intentionally trying to lose? hilarious!

chrislhayes The story of old white dudes using a black man with mental problems for their own benefit is not new!

chrislhayes What a joke!!! Kanye has severe bipolar disorder, no one should vote for this fraud

chrislhayes Msm Propaganda, attacking a black man because he is friends with trump

chrislhayes He has about five percent of the vote! The same crazies can’t share Trumps vote!They say 30 percent of the US are crazy!Trump has the other twenty five of the nuts to vote for him!

chrislhayes Kanye should have a bit more self-respect than to be the trump campaign’s stooge!

chrislhayes Black people: vote for the guy with mental illness so the orange guy with mental illness stays in office. How dumb are Republicans. No wonder they poll at 3 with AA voters. Diamond and Silk and Ben Carson.

chrislhayes dumpTrumpvoteKanye

chrislhayes Republicans think Black voters are dumb

chrislhayes Translation: we feel desperate because we are gonna lose.

chrislhayes Anyone in the entertainment industry should cut ties with him, including GapInc. BoycottGap

chrislhayes Kayne is not a threat for this President Election, Kanye need to go get his husband and fatherhood together before he start saying the wrong things again to hurt what little he has left of his character and career

chrislhayes It’s quite obvious they are using a mentally ill black man to help another mentally ill white man.

chrislhayes I’m 100% sure, the GOP is behind this...tk votes away from Biden to re-elect the moron in chief!

chrislhayes Boycott kanyewest and KimKardashian

chrislhayes Idk ... swing states are closer now than they were at this same point in the race, than they were in 2016

chrislhayes They will push him into a manic state, the pressure and stress will be too much, and the rejection from many may destroy kanyewest my son is bipolar and I know what I am talking about, look at what happened to him last month and this is the beginning. They should be shame.

chrislhayes

chrislhayes MSNBC why must you keep giving oxygen to this bullshit!

chrislhayes Only stupid people would actually vote for Kanye West

chrislhayes Anybody but a Democrat in 2020. walkaway

chrislhayes This also allows the Russian hacking teams to move votes off of Biden to Kanye without anyone questioning it. Especially in majority black and big city voting districts in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan and Pennsylvania. Just like they did in 2016 by moving votes to Stein.

chrislhayes Kanye better be punished at least as much as MC Hammer was! give me a break!!

chrislhayes Hey Chris Hays, would you stop propping up someone that needs mental health, by over analyzing. The world is exploding. Cover that for a change. U r stuck with Kanye. Give it up man!

chrislhayes A non-issue. He's obviously nuts and needs mental help.

chrislhayes History will be unkind to Kanye West.

chrislhayes Anybody voting for West is just as mentally sick as him.

chrislhayes The poor crazy bastard has no idea he's being used!

chrislhayes This story would have no legs if the MSM (looking at you, MSNBC), stopped promoting it.

chrislhayes People of color will not fall for this. They will use their brains and see right through the noise. Biden2020ToSaveAmerica

chrislhayes Please stop. This story is insane.

chrislhayes Kim Kardashian, PLEASE get professional help for your husband.

chrislhayes They are exploiting a mentally ill person, it's disgusting, they will stoop to any level. Not surprising, the GOP is rotting.

chrislhayes BoycottKanye BOYCOTTKANYEKARDASHIAN BoycottKardashians

chrislhayes This is straight laughs...

GOP lawyer who represented Trump campaign helping Kanye West - Business InsiderBusiness Insider is a fast-growing business site with deep financial, media, tech, and other industry verticals. Launched in 2007, the site is now the largest business news site on the web. They are assuming Kayne West absorbs some of the progressive and black vote? Just a guess, but seems plausible. I can tell you what blocks of voters won't pull the lever for West. Trump is so racist he thinks Kayne will pull in the black vote. Lol. Republicans don’t care about black people or mental illness. Remember that America.
