Rapper Kanye West seems to have misplaced yet one more fan as a result of his quickly shifting political opinions.

Nick Fuentes, the white nationalist Maga podcaster recognized for his lengthy historical past of antisemitic and misogynistic remarks, lamented throughout his podcast this week that it was “so over” after Mr West issued a weird apology in Hebrew for “outbursts” towards Jewish communities world wide.

The political stint coincided with the messy, public dissolution of Mr West’s marriage to Kim Kardashian and his relatedly ugly feud together with her now-ex-boyfriend, Pete Davidson of Saturday Night Live.

After his ill-fated dinner with Mr Trump in 2022, he claimed to have requested the long run GOP frontrunner to function his working mate for the 2024 race.
