He Got That Ambition, Baby, Look At His Eyes

Drug dealer buy Jordans, crackhead buy crack,
And a white man get paid off of all of that.

If only by months, Kanye West is even older than I am. He is also even more middle-class; his mother was Chair of the Department of English, Communications, Media and Theater at Chicago State University.

West's language is no worse than Donald Trump's, and West is not the Commander-in-Chief of at least 24 military bases on British soil. If Trump followed through tomorrow, then those installations should be closed. In fact, the threat alone is a war crime, so close them, anyway.

Trump is the second President of the United States in succession to be senile in office, but the block on the Twenty-fifth Amendment this time is that the Cabinet hawks do not want JD Vance as Acting President at all, never mind going into the next Presidential election process.

And West claims that manic episodes led him to record and release Heil Hitler, and to market a T-shirt featuring a swastika. We are at war in Ukraine for those who wore the Sonnenrad and the Wolfsangel. They may as well wear a swastika, and they sometimes do. But it is quite some manic episode to get a record out or to get a T-shirt into the shops. Was everyone involved thus afflicted? Nor can it be ignored that there are plenty of Jews both in the music industry and in the rag trade.

Drug dealer buy Jordans, crackhead buy crack,
And a white man get paid off of all of that.
