It’s been a few weeks since something ridiculous happened with Kanye West or his family, so he was about due, and boy did he make up for lost time. Kanye continued his Saint Pablo tour in San Jose Thursday night and chose then to announce who he supported in this year’s election even though he didn’t vote.
“If I would have voted, I would have voted on Trump,” he told the crowd before they showered him with boos. It was one of just the many interruptions Kanye had during his set. Why he chose until now to throw his support behind one of the presidential candidates? Well, apparently Scooter Braun told him to wait until after the election to support anybody publicly.
Kanye says Scooter Braun told him not to come out as a Trump supporter before election night.

Needless to say, fans in attendance did not enjoy the foolery.

Kanye just stopped the show to say he liked a lot about Trump's campaign, but not necessarily his views. Which ignited more boos.

Kanye on Trump in the presidential debates: "I loved his approach." Don't know where he's going with this.

Kanye just said that Trump's approach was absolutely genius because it worked. Now we're on Flashing Lights.

And apparently after saying he would have voted for Trump, people started leaving.
People are walking out now

Though some continued to enjoy the show.
Incredible sight: blacks, latinos and other minorities left are still dancing to the man who endorsed a candidate that openly despises them.

While some were over it.
Chants of "We don't care" in regards to the Trump endorsement have broke out in the stands. People are still cheering for him.

And some fans even threw things at Kanye during his many interruptions for political talk, which caused him to threaten to cancel the show.
Someone threw something at Kanye that hit him, he's now threatening to cancel the show. "Am I not allowed to have an opinion?"

Oh, and in case you were wondering, he confirmed that he still plans to run for president in 2020. So there’s that I guess.
Kanye just said he thinks he'll have the experience in 2020 to run for office, I'm dead serious, Kanye just said he's preparing for 2020.

I guess there’s nothing left to say but *sigh*
