Makes Me Wanna Holler!

By Lafe Tolliver, Esq
Guest Column

     If you need any more proof that this upcoming presidential election is going to become the proverbial, “barn burner,” look no further than recent news headlines indicating that Kanye West, yeah, THAT Kanye, is running to be president of the US of A.

     Now, let that thought sink in for a moment or two. Kanye West, musical genius (?) provocateur, wants you to vote for him to have access to the nuclear codes and for him to craft deals with China and Russia.

     Kanye wants to be the chief executive officer of the US of A and appoint nominees to the Supreme Court and be in a position of power to issue pardons!

     If you believe that you are in an Alice in Wonderland tale, you are!

     Kanye wants you to allow him to debate on national television his opponents in matters of serious import that pertain to life and death and which decisions, if he is elected, would have grave impact on the national economy.

     Now, if you have been watching the news lately, you have seen this presidential aspirant, devolve into a mess of public tearings (aka: crying jags); and shoutouts to his wife regarding abortion and iffy divorce issues.

     Let your fertile imagination run wild and visualize Kanye giving State of the Union addresses and traveling on Air Force One to conduct meetings with other heads of state.

     Or, Kanye using the Oval Office as a staging arena for an impromptu rap concert with Taylor Swift on back-up vocals!

Yeah, you now are getting the drift of such a presidency.

     And yet, you must ask, what is the sinister plot behind such an undertaking. What is going on and who is up to no good?

     Well, for starters, understand that Kanye is in no mental state of mind to engineer such an undertaking because we are now finding out that it is GOP political operatives who are the malefactors behind this galling operation.

    The story is that the GOP is concerned that Herr Trump, behind in the polls, needs all the help he can get, be it from China, Vladimir Putin of Russia or even exploiting a black rock star.

     The gist of the story is that if the GOP can use Kanye in certain key battleground states to siphon off clueless black voters or those who do not care about electing Joe Biden, their votes for Kanye, in a tight race, could be difference in Trump winning or losing that state.

     Do not be gullible in thinking that black voters will not go for the, “Okey-Doke” and would vote for Kanye.

    When you understand that Herr Trump thrives on chaos and disruption, throwing a Kanye wrench into the election pool would serve that purpose.

    In the 2016 elections, in some key battleground states, it was only a matter of several thousand of votes that caused Hillary Clinton to lose and for a mentally-addled Herr Trump to win the White House.

    The GOP has no moral scruples in a calculating exploitation of anyone or anything if that means that their candidate can win a second term as president.

    Kanye, according to recent family reports, is allegedly suffering from mental health issues and is possibly bi-polar and as such, is susceptible to being pranked, harmed, exploited, used, appropriated or conned into believing that his voice is needed on the national political stage.

    What is a more pressing question is why either Kanye or his “loving” family are allowing this clownish political charade to happen with their knowledge?

    It has been reported that GOP operatives are really in charge of this ruse and they are the ones making sure that Kanye gets on the ballot in certain key states to hopefully siphon off votes from Joe Biden.

    Does this regrettable behavior by Kanye or his family make Kanye an, “Uncle Tom?” No…because if you read the story of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, you will realize that Uncle Tom was a hero and did acts of bravery to save his people from exploitation. but rather, it was the book’s character, Sambo, who did the damage.

    Shame on Kanye and double shame on his family members who are not protesting this charade and triple shame on the GOP for this political outrage.

My take on this? Simple. Kanye should immediately change his name to that of Sambo West.
