Kim, who recently came under fire for posting 'explicit' photos online, also said that Kanye is "years ahead of his time" in light of his recent Twitter spree.
"I believe in people being able to have their own opinions, even if really different from mine He never said he agrees with his politics," she writes."
Now when he spoke out about Trump... Most people (including myself) have very different feelings & opinions about this. But this is HIS opinion. I believe in people being able to have their own opinions,even if really different from mine

He never said he agrees with his politics
Kanye will never run in the race of popular opinion and we know that and that’s why I love him and respect him and in a few years when someone else says the same exact thing but they aren’t labeled the way he is and you will all praise them! Kanye is years ahead of his time

In response, Banks took to Instagram to accuse the famous couple of “aggravating” black people and using the public "outrage" for publicity for Kanye's new music.
Banks has previously made herself known as a supporter of Trump. She posted a series of messages on Facebook following his election win describing herself as “f*cking proud as F*CK”.
The rapper claims that she "said alllll of these things during the election" before Kanye did, adding that Kim will "never ever be First Lady'.
