    This whole debacle is so dumb, If Harlan Crow was going to manipulate West it’s not gonna be with the 3000 dollar public donation. We’re keeping this energy for the horrible people who end up bankrolling Biden too right?

      Youre right, it’s not about the 3k. Its with the other hidden perks that come with a friendship with the billionares Crow. Clarence thomas got a free house for his mom, decades of 100k vacations, “tuition” for his grand nephew to be tortured in a “fix kids with jesus and abuse” camp, a 300k motorhome, a million dollar job for his wife as a consultant, and im sure there are more “perks” we dont know about.

      The 3k isnt the problem. The problem is that Crow has deep, deep, deep resources, and is utterly opposed to the policies West represents, yet there is clearly money changing hands, and West is defending it and his “friendship” with Crow. Is the 3k all of it? It certainly not all Crow is willing to give to his useful “friends.”
