Kanye West broke down in tears during a wild rally to launch his presidential campaign, revealing that he and Kim Kardashian wanted to have an abortion when she was pregnant with daughter North, but that God came to him and told him it was not right.
Two weeks after announcing his unlikely bid for president, Kanye West held his first campaign event in South Carolina on Sunday, wearing a bullet-proof vest and with 2020 shaved into his hair.
‘I don’t give a f*** if I win the presidency or not,’ he declared.
‘There are homeless people in front of the Gucci store. I care about these things. And I am in service of God.’
In a rambling, unscripted speech to supporters, he focused frequently on the topic of abortion, saying that in 2013 Kim ‘had the pills in her hand’ to have an abortion before he was inspired by God to have the child.
He also said he wished to meet with George Soros to discuss building houses, and with Mark Zuckerberg to talk about improving internet connectivity in Africa.
But he shocked the crowd and drew condemnation when he said Harriet Tubman did not free slaves, but ‘just had the slaves go work for other white people’.
Amid the ongoing coronavirus outbreak, all attendees were told they would be required to wear masks, sign a COVID-19 liability release form and practice social distancing.
The face mask rule was not universally enforced, however, with attendees climbing onto the stage to question West without face masks.
Recent reports claim that West’s bipolar disorder has ‘impacted his decision-making’ and has left his family ‘very concerned.’
A source told TMZ that the rapper is in the midst of a manic episode caused by bipolar disorder – a condition that he has been open about in the past.
In 2016 West spent time in hospital after a ‘psychiatric emergency’ and was forced to cancel 21 concert dates.
‘Politics, America, Trump, Biden, nor Kanye West can free us,’ he told the crowd.
‘The only thing that can free us is obeying the rules that were given to us as a promised land.’
On Sunday night he told a story about his now-wife Kim Kardashian’s pregnancy.
West said he was weighing up what to do, when he received what he interpreted as a sign from God.
He told that he was in Paris, working on his laptop at the time.
‘My screen went black and white,’ he said. ‘And God said, if you f*** with my vision I f*** with yours.
‘And I called my girlfriend and said we’re going to have this child.
‘Even if my wife were to divorce me after this speech, she brought North into this world, when I did not want to.’
He yelled to the crowd: ‘She had the pills in her hand.’
And he broke down in tears as he shouted: ‘I almost killed my daughter!’

West, growing emotional, then told the story of his own childhood.
‘My Mum saved my life. My Dad wanted to abort me,’ he said. ‘There would have been no Kanye West. Because my Dad was too busy.’
West spent much of the time discussing abortion, and announced that he wanted women to be given money by the government for bearing children, to discourage abortion.
‘Abortion should be legal but the option of maximum increase should be available,’ he said.
‘Everybody who has a baby gets a million dollars or something.’
He pointed out that Steve Jobs was adopted, and said it ‘takes a village’ to raise a child, emphasizing that he wanted all mothers to be free from worries about child care.
‘Steve Jobs was adopted,’ he said.
‘It takes a village to raise a child. No matter how much money you have. Society is set up for single women to not have a village.
‘So I moved to a small town, in Cody, Wyoming.’
West told the crowd of perhaps a hundred people that he wanted to illustrate his point about abortion with diagrams, but changed his mind after a social media backlash.
He had tweeted an image of a six-month fetus on July 8, and then deleted it.
‘I even heard they could abort up to eight months,’ he said.
