Everyone has their reasons for why they may or may not be voting for a particular presidential candidate. During an interview with DJ Whoo Kid on Shade 45, T.I. shared his opinion on possible candidates and explained why he won’t be voting for Hillary Clinton.
“Not to be sexist, but I can’t vote for the leader of the free world to be a woman,” he tells Whoo Kid. “Just because, every other position that exists, I think a woman could do well. But the president? It’s kinda like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally—they make very permanent, cemented decisions—and then later, it’s kind of like it didn’t happen, or they didn’t mean for it to happen. And I sure would hate to just set off a nuke. I think you might be able to the Loch Ness Monster elected before you could [get a woman].”
Will TIP be voting for Trump? The rapper says, “his racist remarks and all of his off-color statements and all that s**t it makes it impossible to be completely supportive of him. But just knowing what he’s done for business for himself, if he intends to do that for America, it would be beneficial. But I can’t cast no vote for him.”
So who will TI vote for? Don’t expect it to be Kanye in 2020 either. ”Nahh, I’m a businessman.”
T.I. has since received backlash for his comments about women running for president. He took to Twitter to apologize. “My comments about women running for president were unequivocally insensitive and wrong. I sincerely apologize to everyone I offended,” he tweeted.
