When you make Alex Jones look good.

It's funny, in retrospect. What was scandalous in 2004 is nothing compared to today. Kanye saying Bush doesn't care about black people... now, "I love Hitler." Or Bush mispronouncing "Nuclear", now Trump firing FBI directors investigating him, impeached twice, didn't accept election results. Fun times!

Most appropriate screenshot, ever.
LOL
I saw the clips earlier today, and didn't want to give more oxygen to him by talking about it, but alas... Shapiro's response is spot on.

I'm tempted to laugh and laugh at the prospect of this fool gaining the White House, but I have learned my lesson. I laughed and laughed at the idea of Donald Trump -- Donald Freaking Trump! -- gaining the White House, and dang me, look what happened. Now, despite all evidence to the contrary, the press still insists on treating him like a viable contributor instead of the chesspiece-eating demento that he is.
Though less so, it is to be hoped.
The smart thing would be to deprive West of oxygen, treat him as the whackout nothingburger that he is, but of course we won't do that, will we.
The most useful thing he did was have dinner with Trump.

What's with the balaclava? Does he love the IRA, too?

I just figured he was into impersonating a pro wrestling bad guy.

Adi das was so money hungry that they let this go on and on and on
Just weeks before the 2013 swastika incident, the Times found, West made Adidas executives watch pornography during a meeting at his Manhattan apartment, ostensibly to spark creativity. In February 2015, preparing to show the first Yeezy collection at New York Fashion Week, staff members complained that he had upset them with angry, sexually crude comments.
He later advised a Jewish Adidas manager to kiss a picture of Adolf Hitler every day, and he told a member of the company’s executive board that he had paid a seven-figure settlement to one of his own senior employees who accused him of repeatedly praising the architect of the Holocaust.

Bill Maher revealed that he sat down with Kanye West for a two-hour interview on his “Club Random” podcast, but he will not release the episode due to the disgraced rapper’s bigoted views against Jews.
“I thought it was going to be a learning moment.” Maher said on a Feb. 5 episode of “TMZ Investigates” centered on West, titled “Unhinged but Unstoppable.”
“We were here for two hours. By the way, we had an amazing, fun time,” Maher added. “He’s a very charming antisemite. And by the way, he’s not the only one in America who feels that way. It’s not like the Jews are universally loved except for Kanye West.”
Earlier in the interview, Maher said of West: “The problem, I think, is that he appeals mostly — of course he’s a rock star — to young people. They don’t know much and they surely don’t know much about the Middle East or Jews. So the combination of Kanye out there — I feel like he was helpful for spreading the fertilizer, and I do mean fertilizer, for this idea that Israel and the Jews are the worst people in the world.”
TMZ founder Harvey Levin suggested to Maher that “you could say the same thing about Hitler,” in regards to West emboldening other people to voice their antisemitic views. “A lot of people were thinking what he was thinking, but in Kanye’s case, the fact that he’s saying it out loud gives other people permission to say it too, right?” Levin asked.
“Yes, exactly,” Maher said. “That’s why I wouldn’t air that episode, because I’m not going to contribute to this.”
