The election may be over, but people are not over talking about it. Kanye West voiced his opinion about how he would have voted for a certain candidate, even though he donated to the other.
On November 17th at his Saint Pablo concert in San Jose, California, Kanye West made a statement announcing “I didn’t vote but if I did, I would have voted for Trump.” After the “Famous” rapper made this statement, a lot of negative backlash was made towards West. One way people are starting to boycott Pablo is by refusing to buy his tickets for his Saint Pablo Tour.
I ALMOST bought a tix to the Pablo tour @kanyewest — glad i didn’t. My kanye concert boycott continues…

Although Kanye made an announcement of voting for Trump during his show, he actually donated to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign and the Democratic National Convention. A reported $2,700 was donated to Clinton’s campaign in October of 2015, and a whopping $15,000 was donated to the DNC in 2014. This confused a lot of Pablo fans, but, as we’ve come to learn, you can’t predict the life of Pablo.
