Kanye West reacted Friday to Elle magazine’s voter registration stunt involving getting readers to click on a link about him and Kim Kardashian’s relationship to get them to register to vote.
The 41-year-old rapper tweeted, “I agree,” in response to a tweet from The Daily Caller’s Peter J. Hasson who called out the magazine for tricking readers. (RELATED: Kanye Overcome With Love, Hugs Trump In Oval Office)

“Just wanna go on the record as hating this. If someone has to trick you with celebrity clickbait to get you to register to vote, maybe you shouldn’t be voting,” Hasson tweeted, along with a link to the since-deleted post from the magazine.
