Reality star Kim Kardashian West says that her husband, rapper Kanye West, likes President Trump Donald John TrumpBiden on Trump's refusal to commit to peaceful transfer of power: 'What country are we in?'

Kardashian West made the remarks on Wednesday while speaking at a criminal justice reform summit hosted by Variety, according to BuzzFeed News.

“He’s very not political, actually, he just happens to like Donald Trump’s personality, but doesn’t know about the politics,” she told the moderator, CNN’s Van Jones.

She added that she knows West's "heart" and has “educated” her husband about the issues.

“It’s taken a little long, so I’m jumping in and helping out, but I know his heart, so I never really stress too much,” Kardashian West said.

West has repeatedly expressed support for Trump, culminating in a wild Oval Office meeting last month, where the rapper wore a “Make America Great Again” hat and physically embraced the president.

Last month, following a dispute with conservative commentator Candace Owens, West tweeted that he has been “used” and announced that he is “distancing” himself from politics.

Kardashian West said she and her husband “have very similar politics,” but that he is “the worst communicator” of his message and can be “misunderstood.”

“I know it’s very confusing, because when you see someone wearing a red hat you would think that they are supporting that,” Kardashian West said. “But he’s just fighting for free thought and freedom to like a person, even if it’s not the popular decision.”

Kardashian West also met with the president earlier this year to lobby him to pardon Alice Marie Johnson, a woman serving a life sentence for a nonviolent drug offense. Trump granted her clemency following the meeting with Kardashian West.
