Oct, 13 2015 | Written by ATLien

NEWSFLASH!! Clifford ‘T.I.’ Harris is not here for Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.

In fact, the popular rap star turnt actor doesn’t feel that ANY woman would be able to handle the job of President of the United States and he’s not ashamed to say it.

In a recent interview with DJ Whoo Kid, Tip shared his thoughts about the possibility of Hillary Clinton being the next POTUS, stating:

Not to be sexist but, I can?t vote for the leader of the free world to be a woman.

Just because, every other position that exists, I think a woman could do well. But the president? It?s kinda like, I just know that women make rash decisions emotionally ? they make very permanent, cemented decisions ? and then later, it?s kind of like it didn?t happen, or they didn?t mean for it to happen.

T.I. continues…

…the world ain?t ready yet. I think you might be able to the Lochness Monster elected before you could [a woman].?

[Sidebar: I would imagine people said the same thing about there ever being a Black president.]
