Kim Kardashian Stands By Working With Trump On Prison Reform

In an interview with David Letterman for his long-form Netflix series “My Next Guest Needs No Introduction,” Kim Kardashian revealed she was warned that her reputation and career could be damaged if she associated herself with President Donald Trump on prison reform.

As we previously reported, the reality star and beauty mogul visited the White House back in 2018 where she convinced the president to commute the sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, a great-grandmother who was serving a life sentence for a nonviolent drug conviction. Letterman asked the reality star how she felt about working with Trump at a time when many people including celebrities criticized his administration and character. She said: “Trust me, everyone called me and said, ‘Don’t you dare step foot in that White House or your reputation is done.’” 

As Letterman tried to get a political stance out of Kim, she refused to say anything bad about POTUS and held back on sharing who she’s voting for this election. Kardashian responded by simply saying that she is “extremely grateful” for the administration’s decision to work with her on an issue that’s close to her heart. She also said “hopefully, for the next multiple administrations, I’ll be working with the White House, helping them with clemencies,” according to The Daily Beast.

“Your good work is overwhelming,” Letterman told Kim. “It’s a positive force that diminishes what I consider to be unacceptable behavior by the president.”
