Kanye clarifies his response to Jimmy Kimmel’s Trump versus Bush question saying Kimmel didn’t have him stumped. Kimmel opposed a question to Kanye, stating why the rapper was for Trump but feels as though Bush “Doesn’t care for Black people.” Kanye’s response held a moment of silence as socialites waited for his response, but instead got a commercial break. Socialites were left with the impression that the question left Kanye clueless.
Well Kanye decided to clear up the assumptions on twitter writing, ” On Kimmel we had a great time having dialogue. I’m reading that I was stymped by the question. Let me clarify the click bait. I wasn’t stumped. I wasn’t given a chance to answer the question. The question was so important I took time to think, and then I was hit with the let’s go to commercial break.”
The question was so important I took time to think. And then I was hit with the let’s go to commercial break. That interview showed strong personalities with different opinions having a civil conversation.

Jimmy kimmel also responded on Twitter saying “Not every question warrants an immediate answer. Some answers need to be considered and a talk show with time constraints is a difficult place tondo that. I know how much Kanye cares and I am so impressed by what he is doing quietly and without fanfare to help those who need it.”

We really hope Jimmy Kimmel’s question not only made Kanye pause and think for a minute, but also gave some insight to viewers making them think deeper as well.
