Trevor Noah did a piece on the latest Daily Show about the ongoing saga involving Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, and Pete Davidson. The story should be simple. Kanye and Kim are getting a divorce because their marriage didn’t work out. Kim has moved on and is dating the SNL star. Things have become so complicated and convoluted that it has become a national crisis of conscience.

Noah framed his Daily Show bit around the idea of gaslighting and emotional abuse. Many fans have accused Kanye West of doing just that to Kim Kardashian. Ye has also constantly harrassed Pete Davidson throughout the public war of words.

Kanye took to Instagram to express his displeasure with Trevor Noah over the bit. Kanye has targeted what he perceives as the “Godless liberal media” via social outlets. Ye believes he is the true victim in this story.

“All in together now… Koon baya my lord koon baya Koon baya my lord Koon baya Oooo’ lord Koon baya.”

The post included a screenshot of a Google result noting that Trevor Noah is South African. Kanye appears to be pointing out some perceived hypocrisy as Noah didn’t immediately come to West’s side. Kanye seems to be painting Trevor as a traitor while invoking sensitive racial undertones.

Kanye West has been focusing his blame on some curious targets. Ye thinks the “liberal media” has let him down. Since Kanye can’t win Kim Kardashian back by traditional means, he seems to now be following the Donald Trump gaslighting playbook to bring people to his side.
