  Speaking to AllHipHop, Afroman clarified, “I’m not supporting him. I just met him. And yes, my campaign is full effect.” He continued, “We were both at the Libertarian National Conference trying to get nominated and get their votes and we saw each other. We shook hands and talked about the Hunter Biden song and witch hunt raids. That was it.”

  just to clarify, the photo alone in the link you sent does not provide sufficient evidence that Afroman has cozied up to Trump or supports Trump. As far as I can tell, so far, no evidence points to him supporting Trump.

  That said, he is a Christian and says transphobic things, and he clearly competes with Trump for some of the same right-wing Libertarian voters, so it’s clear Afroman is at least in some right-wing spaces and supports some right-wing ideas, even if I don’t think you have sufficient evidence to say he’s close to Trump or a Trump supporter.
