On Monday, Rolling Stone reported that far-right figures are flocking to rapper Kanye West, also known by the mononym "Ye," as a potentially more authentic standard bearer of the MAGA movement than former President Donald Trump himself — or at the very least, as a person who could send a message to Trump to step up his game in supporting white nationalism.
"The prospect of the rapper campaigning against Trump from the right is bringing glee to the deplorables set," reported Tim Dickinson and Nikki McCann Ramirez.
