How easily we forget.

Ever since President Donald first ran for the presidency in 2016, Trump has been extremely allergic to Trump. Someone in Chicago, Kanye West, not much.

On Thursday night, Chicago embraced the West with all its self -obsessed, maniacal manicure glory.

The famous rap artist is back in Chicago, where he grew up, to treat his fans to a 90 -minute live listening event at Soldier Field. Spending the extra night, dubbed the Donda Album Experience, previewed the upcoming album Wests, a tribute to her late mother.

An estimated 38,000 fans happily turned up for tickets, which cost $ 150 and up. Of course, there is no COVID-19 vaccine or negative test required to attend, according to media reports.

Kanye West gives fans a breathtaking, bonkers experience, a Chicago Tribune headline that separates.

Kanye West caused shock and amazement, the Chicago Sun-Times declared.

Enthusiastic coverage is almost silent on Wests Trump’s love.

Kanye West does a lot of things. Entertainment, songwriter, producer, fashion designer, brilliant brand maven, magnet of controversy.

But one thing Chicago shouldn’t forget is Kanye West is a Donald Trump hug, apologist and flunky.

The West has stuffed Trump’s presidency with unvarnished worship. Take the Wests October 2018 visit to the White House, ostensibly to discuss Trump’s alleged interest in workforce training programs, sentencing reform and Black employment.

Instead, the West gave a red hat to Make America Great Again and delivered a hearty tribute to the president.

Trump is on his heros journey today, West declared at the Oval Office.

West, writes The New York Times, praised the president for ending the war in North Korea (none), said Mr. Trump solved one of the biggest problems on Day 1 (North Korea again), spoke about misidentification of bipolar disorder (it’s lack of sleep) and said that Mr. Trump gave him a Superman cape to be a force for good.

The grinning consolation gave Trump plenty of hugs and opportunities to indulge in the president’s favorite sports condemning Chicago.

During the 2020 presidential campaign, the West pretended to open up to Trump. On July 4, he tweeted that he would run himself as president against his chest friend. He later defended himself from charging that his late -blown White House bid was actually an attempt to help Trump by sucking Black votes from rival Trumps Democrats.

I’m not denying it, I just told you, he said in an interview with Forbes. To say that the Black vote is Democratic is a form of racism and white supremacy.

West also acknowledged he did not vote in his lifetime and called Trump special.

Many observers laughed at Wests foray into political president. It’s not funny. If the West wasn’t such an ineffective clown, Trump could still be president.

Now, it seems, everyone is forgotten and forgiven in Chicago, this clear blue city, where Trump’s biggest haters live. In territory where our governor, mayor and countless others have spent years excoriating Trumps suddenly uttered and policies.

Trump did not set foot in Chicago during his presidency. He and his Trump International Hotel and Tower milked us for tax deductions and soaked us for free publicity. Public officials are eager to remove the garish, 20-foot Trump letters that destroy our vision of the Chicago River.

In Chicago, activists regularly march outside the tower in protest of all the racism, misogyny and chaos that Trump represents.

Kanye West has played a famous role in the Trump world. How can we forget?
