Kanye West releases 2024 campaign video after meeting with Trump

Disgraced rapper Kanye West admitted “I love Hitler” during a shocking appearance with right-wing conspiracy theorist Alex Jones on Infowars.

West, who has previously been dumped by Adidas, GAP and Balenciaga over a series of anti-Semitic comments, repeatedly praised the Nazi leader during his appearance on the show Thursday morning.

Despite Jones’ efforts to say he didn’t believe West was a Nazi, the hip-hop star cut him off and insisted he was a fan of the man who oversaw the murder of about 6 million Jews.

“You’re not Hitler, you’re not a Nazi, so you don’t deserve to be demonized,” Jones told West, who oddly wore a black balaclava over his face in the studio.

But West was not ready to accept Jones’ attempt to expose Nazism.

“Well, I see good things about Hitler too,” West replied.
