In other news, Kim Kardashian removed a YouTube channel belonging to her eldest son, Saint West, on Wednesday following the posting of two critical messages regarding Vice President Kamala Harris. The channel, which operated under the handle @TheGoatSaint, was reportedly taken down by Kardashian, 44, in response to the politically charged content, as reported by The Daily Beast.
When attempting to access the channel, users encountered a message from YouTube stating, “This page isn’t available. Sorry about that. Try searching for something else.”
Social media users alleged that Saint had shared a meme depicting Kamala Harris’s image on the sole of a shoe worn by a cartoon character, accompanied by the phrase, “I stepped in s***.”
Last month, Kardashian mentioned that she required Saint to sign a contract to maintain his presence on the platform. It seems he may have violated the terms of this agreement just one week prior to the upcoming election.
Several users on X/Twitter connected Saint’s posts to his father’s long-standing support for Donald Trump, with reactions such as: “Smart like his father,” “Kanye is so proud right now,” “Kanye so proud of bro,” and “Like father like son.”
