The 43-year-old rapper is currently in the midst of a campaign to replace Donald Trump in the White House, and Kanye’s finance report has revealed the eye-watering sums he’s spending on his Presidential aspirations.<\/p>\n

Kanye has forked out $5.86 million so far on his campaign, with most of that money going toward consultants and fees, according to a report filed with the Federal Election Commission.<\/p>\n

The outspoken rap star has loaned his campaign more than $6.7 million, with the only other source of income coming from small donations from fans.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Tyson Beckford recently insisted Kanye West isn’t “ready” to become the US President.<\/p>\n

The model thinks Kanye’s ambition is misguided and has instead encouraged the rap star to stick to what he knows.
He said: “This is where I always get into trouble because I speak the truth. I don’t know what’s going on, but he’s really getting himself in a pot of tea that’s not ready for him.<\/p>\n

“I try to never speak bad. I’ve seen him and his lady, [wife Kim Kardashian], do some positive things, and I kind of wish they would just stay on that. That vibe running a country – it’s not an easy thing.” <\/p>\n

Tyson thinks the US needs to choose the most capable person for the role, rather than the person with the biggest profile.<\/p>\n

He explained: “I think we need to start picking people because it’s something that they do for a living.<\/p>\n

“It’s like, if you get on a plane and there’s no pilot and then one of the customers says, ‘OK, I’m going to get up and fly.’<\/p>\n

“Are you going to deboard the plane, or are you going to stay on the plane and take this flight? I’m not getting on a plane with a pilot … who’s not a pilot. That’s just crazy.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
