Kanye West has angered many with his open support for Donald Trump and some of his policies. That support may be helping his wife Kim Kardashian accomplish some of her political issues.

She sat down Alec Baldwin in the first episode of The Alec Baldwin Show to discuss some of her husband’s actions, as well as if it helped her get the president’s support to free Alice Johnson.

“I do believe she would still be in prison,” she said. “We’ve (spoken) about this a few times. Alice always says if it wasn’t for Kanye speaking up in support of Trump, then she would still be in jail.”

As for how their relationship is still standing strong over the years, she revealed her secret.

“I let him be who he wants to be,” she said. “I let him have his own views and opinions, even if they’re different than mine. I grew up in a household where we would always just talk about it and be open about it and it was really OK to have different views. For me, I think it’s just about having an open mind.”

She also addressed the Paris robbery incident, and how it helped her open her eyes.

“I never thought about anything scary before until then,” she said. “I felt like I was living in a bubble and that opened me up to so much.”
