<p><span style&equals;"font-weight&colon; 400&semi;">&num;KanyeWest has been pretty vocal on his political stances lately but one thing he was able to do was separate his political views and his fashion design&&num;8230&semi;until now&period;<&sol;span><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><span style&equals;"font-weight&colon; 400&semi;">So y’all remember &num;TurningPointUSA’s &num;YoungBlackLeadershipSummit that’s going on this weekend in Washington D&period;C&period;&quest; It’s where &num;StaceyDash and &num;BenCarson are speaking and it is catered to young black conservatives&period;<&sol;span><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><span style&equals;"font-weight&colon; 400&semi;">Well&comma; apparently Kanye’s newest clothing design debuted there&period; The shirts Kanye created say &num;Blexit on them and supposedly advocate for a black exit&comma; or &OpenCurlyDoubleQuote;Blexit&comma;” from the &num;Democratic Party&comma; according to Turning Point USA’s communications director&comma; conservative commentator and Kanye’s homegirl&comma; &num;CandaceOwens&period;<&sol;span><&sol;p>&NewLine;<p><span style&equals;"font-weight&colon;
