Speaking about Kanye's political preferences in an interview last year, Kim revealed that Kanye West doesn’t want to be told what he should be, as it gets confusing. Speaking about the one thing that she respects about Kanye, Kim remarked that he is who he is, no matter what anyone tries to tell him to do. Back in ’16, Kardashian West mentioned that if her husband did run for president it probably wouldn't be as a Republican. Currently, West has not shared any additional information about the details of his presidential run. Meanwhile, Kardashian West has repeatedly maintained that her husband's public support for President Donald Trump doesn’t mean he’s a Republican.
