Kanye West says he’s stepping out of politics. Cenk Uygur, Brett Erlich, and Aida Rodriguez, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down.

"Wade through the babble of Big Ideas—like hydrogen-powered iPlanes—that Kanye West voiced during his Oval Office meeting with Trump earlier this month and you’ll find one that’s actually, worryingly, workable. “If he don’t look good [pointing to Trump], we don’t look good,” Kanye said. “This is our President. He has to be the freshest, the flyest.” Kanye ended that meeting by treating Trump like one of his many famous friends or influencers, giving the President a pair of Yeezys.
Kanye’s been all over the place lately, but he’s been uncharacteristically consistent on one idea: that he can remake the Republican party in his image, at least from an aesthetic standpoint. He’s created the Yeezy-Wearer-in-Chief, a redesigned MAGA hat with a new brim, plus several variations of the cap including one worn by Jared Kushner that read “Travel Space Again.” Earlier this year, Kanye made conservative pundit Candace Owens look like one of his campaign models in head-to-toe Yeezy before a TMZ appearance during which he called slavery a choice. Now, Kanye is working with Owens again—this time on a collection of merch for something called Blexit, aimed at recruiting black people to the Republican party."
