Chance the Rapper on Kanye's Support for President Trump

After Kanye's tweets, he received a plethora of support and backlash. Much of the support came from Americans who support free thinking and/or identify as conservatives and Trump supporters. However, the rapper faced heavy criticism from Democrats and progressives. Many of these left-leaning individuals opined that Kanye resided in the "sunken place" due to his support for President Trump.

People who enjoyed and appreciated the rapper's tweets pushed back against the criticisms. Many Kanye supporters furthermore questioned why people of color who support conservative principles or individuals are demonized by Democrats.
