Kanye’s new album Jesus is God is out and the reviews are in.

“Kanye West reaches for greatness but falls short” – Rolling Stone

“A richly produced but largely flawed record about one man’s love of the Lord (and himself)” – Pitchfork

“The epitome of fearless creativity and ‘dangerous, unapproved’ ideas” – Donald Trump Jr

That’s right – the US president’s trigger-happy junior has continued the Trump-Yeezy love affair with a review that's considerably more 4chan than Pitchfork.

While it's unclear which part of the religious gospel-inspired album is "dangerous or unapproved", it's safe to say the unsolicited review hasn't reflected particularly well on either party.

Some questioned Trump Jr's analysis.

Others felt this endorsement was the final nail in the coffin for a disappointing album.

While the singer recently tried to distance himself from the US president, calling his endorsement of Trump “God’s practical joke to all liberals”, let’s not forget he brought this all on himself when he claimed the former Apprentice star and he shared “dragon energy”.
