Obama Democrats in a panic about the Kanye West defection

Like the border guards of the Berlin Wall, Democrats seem to be in a panic about the defection of rap superstar Kanye West from their side of the impregnable wall.

So now we have a report of President Obama making phone pleas to other rap stars, such as Jay-Z, the rapper-husband of one of his favorites, Beyonce, asking him to urge other hip hop artists not visit President Trump in the White House.

According to InfoWars, which cited but can’t confirm a GOP operative’s claim:

Former President Barack Obama has reportedly asked Jay-Z to encourage other hip hop artists not to meet with Donald Trump following the firestorm of publicity over Kanye West.

The claim is being made by pro-Trump activist Josh Cornett, who tweeted, “Sources are confirming that former President Barack Obama has called Jay-Z several times over the past month pleading with Jay-Z to discourage fellow Hip Hop artists from meeting with President Trump.”

O.K., so it could be fake news. But if this is true, it looks like an amazingly desperate schoolgirl’s stunt. Just the whole specter of a president of the United States getting on the telephone and pleading with rap stars — rap stars!
