Brad Thor: All In for Kanye in 2020?…and how that’s not impossible

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I’ll admit to being more than a little miffed this summer when author and prominent NeverTrump holdout, Brad Thor, came out and decided he was actually a NeverHillary person. But, whatever. All is forgiven!

Why, you might ask? Well, on Hillary Clinton’s birthday on Wednesday the author tweeted a response to this tweet put out by the Clinton campaign:

Thor’s tweet, however, announced what some could call an early endorsement for 2020 on Twitter:

I might be more than a little biased and irrationally enthusiastic about this development, but that’s only because I’ve contended that Donald Trump and Kanye have so much in common that if he decides to run in 2020 — which he’s insisted he will — he could win. Not only that, but I think he could be molded into the perfect conservative candidate many have opined for. Here’s why:

Personality – When it comes to larger-than-life, over-the-top egotistical personalities there are few that are up to The Donald’s level, but Kanye is one of them. He’s brash, bombastic and while he famously crashed Taylor Swift winning a Best Music Video award at the VMAs and feminists hate him for his lyrics, he has a softer side that he shows when he posts selfies with his wife, Kim or their two children, North and Saint.

Reality TV Series – Ah, yes, the medium that launched Donald Trump into being a favorite of the masses will be the thing that will bring out the non-political, independent first-time voters that catapulted Trump to the top of the Republican ticket this year. Kanye married into reality TV royalty when he and Kim Kardashian tied the knot. Keeping Up with the Kardashians has been incredibly popular with women (!) and Millennials — the largest voting bloc in 2020 — for the past decade. People might point out that Kim K became famous from a sex video, but as we now know, a candidate’s spouse’s indiscretions mean nothing post 2016.

Twitter – Like his would-be predecessor, Kanye has a penchant for going on bizarre Twitter ramblings. On the positive side, he’s not all bullying and insults. He’s even more unintentionally amusing than Trump when he does things like tweet at Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg asking him to give him money. At least he admits when he doesn’t have enough!

Cultish Tagalong Voting Bloc – Kanye fans are diehards. Lines for merchandise alone at his concerts take hours. They’re often unruly, fanatical, and not the brightest bulbs around, but they’re loyal. And if there’s anything that will get Kanye the nomination more than anything else, it’s engendering solid loyalty from a portion of the electorate.

Political Background – Kanye is an avowed Democrat. Doesn’t matter. Yes, he said President George W. Bush hated black people! Doesn’t matter. Trump accused George W. Bush of lying to start the Iraq war and not doing enough to prevent 9/11 throughout the primaries. In the Post-Trump Age you don’t have to like the policies or the people who make up the Republican caucus in any level of government. In fact, the nominee can even actively try to unseat fellow Republicans and plenty of people, no matter how “conservative” they claim to be will fully endorse.

And just imagine the speeches in rap rhymes!

As for Kanye’s ideology, that doesn’t matter either. As with Trump we just need to make Kanye’s statements mean whatever we want them to. If he outright disavows a belief of ours, we’ll just say “he doesn’t mean that.” He’s as conservative and Republican as we each would want our dream candidate to be. Honestly, getting to turn your brain off and stop doing any deep thinking will be a blessed relief for those of us who have been tortured with pointing out inconsistencies and watching the spin and lies.

Assuming Hillary wins in November, and doesn’t get impeached, and isn’t totally terrible to the point of being primaried in 2020, should Kanye choose to run as a Republican there’s almost nothing that points to him not being able to clinch the nomination and win the White House. Brad Thor and I have accepted it and are ready.
