Kanye West says ‘I like Hitler’ in shocking antisemitic rant on Alex Jones show
Kanye West repeatedly praised Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler for doing “good things” in a shocking new antisemitic rant Thursday with far right-wing media host Alex Jones.
Inexplicably wearing a face mask over his entire head, the superstar rapper who last month met with former President Trump and white supremacist Nick Fuentes left little doubt how he feels about Jews.
“I see good things about Hitler,” West said on Jones’ “InfoWars” show. “Jewish people are not going to tell me: ‘You can’t say out loud that this person ever did anything good.’ I’m done with that.”
“I like Hitler,” West added.
West, who goes by the name “Ye,” repeated the hateful canard that powerful Jews control the media, including the news and music industries.
“The Jewish media has made us feel like Nazis and Hitler have never offered us anything of value to the world,” West said.
The rapper mimicked Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu by whipping out a butterfly net — and launching a shameful new salvo of hateful rhetoric about Jews.
Using a high-pitched voice to imitate Netanyahu, West said, “We have to control the history books, we have to control the banks, we have to kiill people.”
The hatred spewed by West made Jones mostly sound reasonable by comparison, although the extremist right wing blowhard smiled at his jokes and made some antisemitic remarks of his own.
“Most Jews are great people,” said Jones, who has been ordered to pay millions to families of Sandy Hook massacre victims. ”[But] I agree there’s a Jewish mafia.”
Trump did not immediately respond to the shocking new outburst by West, whom he claims as a friend.
The former president and Republican 2024 presidential candidate did have time to trash a reporter over a story questioning why security allowed West and Fuentes to a private dinner at his Mar-a-Lago resort.Trump has refused to apologize for inviting West and Fuentes to the sitdown two nights before Thanksgiving.
Trump claims that the dinner was kosher because neither West nor Fuentes made any racist or antisemitic remarks to his face.
Some Republicans have slammed the meeting but most have pulled their punches. The newly elected crop of New York GOP lawmakers issued nearly identical statements that carefully avoided criticizing Trump by name.
West also says he is running for president and even insulted Trump at the dinner by suggesting he should take the vice presidential slot on a Kanye-led ‘24 ticket.
His 2020 White House bid, which was designed as a Trump-friendly effort to siphon votes away from President Biden flopped badly.
Once a billionaire mogul awash with endorsement deals, West has been shunned by former big-bucks sponsors like Adidas and Balenciaga over his unhinged antisemitic outbursts. The apparel giant is also investigating him for inappropriate workplace behavior.
