Kanye Talks Trump & Mental Health in Behind-the-Scenes Look at Letterman Interview
Kanye West is the first guest on Netflix‘s second season of David Letterman’s My Next Guest Needs No Introduction, and thanks to a preview courtesy of The Daily Beast, we’ve got a behind-the-scenes look at the episode.
The magazine got a preview look of anticipated episode, in which West discusses politics, mental health, his beef with Drake and his mother’s death.
Speaking about Trump, West revealed that he has never voted, and also declared that “Liberals bully people who are Trump supporters!”
Later, while discussing his “fear” of being a man in the #MeToo era, West says he’s trying to fight the “stigma” of being a Trump supporter. “This is like my thing with Trump — we don’t have to feel the same way, but we have the right to feel what we feel.”
Elsewhere he touches on his mental health. “If you guys want these crazy ideas and these crazy stages and this crazy music and this crazy way of thinking,” West says. “There’s a chance it might come from a crazy person.”
The full, hour-long episode will land on Netflix next Friday, May 31. In case you missed it, watch the trailer for the episode below.
