Kayne West continues the break the internet through 280 characters, with today being his most active and likely most controversial day since coming back on the platform last week.
It appears that Kanye truly wants to bridge the divide in this country, explaining to his 18 million plus followers that you don’t have to agree with everything a person says to love your fellow man.
The Trump themed tweets started this morning, culminating with Kayne tweeting a photo of himself in a MAGA hat and President Trump thanking him for the kind words.
“You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don’t agree with everything anyone does. That’s what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought,” West said.

He followed it up with clarification, stating that he loves Hillary Clinton too and that his world isn’t all Democrats like the mainstream media would like you to believe.
If your friend jumps off the bridge you don't have to do the same. Ye being Ye is a fight for you to be you. For people In my life the idea of Trump is pretty much a 50 50 split but I don't tell a Hillary supporter not to support Hillary
I love Hillary too.— ye (@kanyewest) April 25, 2018
Of course this lead to the typical liberal outrage with hundreds of fans saying that Kayne was losing them.
In fact, it looks like his wife, Kim Kardashian, reached out to make sure he clarified where he stands. He said in a later tweet, “my wife just called me and she wanted me to make this clear to everyone. I don’t agree with everything Trump does. I don’t agree 100% with anyone but myself.”
But the controversy isn’t making Kanye back down. Actually, he’s doubled down and tweeted a photo of him wearing the iconic red MAGA hat.

Of course, Kayne sending all this love got President Trump’s attention and how else would the POTUS show his appreciation? With a tweet of course:

UPDATE: Kayne did it again. Twitter is losing it because of the way he styled this “retweet.”
