Kanye West has indicated that he is running for president in order to hurt Joe Biden's campaign. Earlier this week, The New York Times reported that the effort to get Kanye on the ballot as a third-party candidate in several states is “increasingly looking like an operation run by President Trump‘s allies and Republican activists that is aimed at diverting votes” from the presumptive Democratic nominee. When asked about it, Kanye told Forbes, “I’m not denying it. When asked about his ongoing bid for the White House, Kanye said that rather than running, he was “walking…to win.”
Meanwhile, when it was pointed out that Ye can't actually win in 2020, because he won't be on enough ballots to yield 270 electoral votes. He responded, “I’m not going to argue with you. Jesus is King.”
Kanye later tweeted, “THE GOAL IS TO WIN.”
