The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, 37, later took to Twitter herself to defend her husband. “When he spoke out about Trump … Most people (including myself) have very different feelings & opinions about this. But this is HIS opinion. I believe in people being able to have their own opinions, even if really different from mine. He never said he agrees with his politics.”
