They’ve got to be joking, right? Wrong. If there’s one thing Nov. 8 taught us, it’s that entertainment and American politics are not exactly mutually exclusive. Enter Kanye West for president.
The rapper announced at the 2015 Video Music Awards that he planned on making a bid for the highest office in the land.
That was more than a year ago, but Tuesday night, emboldened by Trump’s stunning win, West fans picked up the rapper’s mantle anew. The hashtag “#kanye2020″ started to gain steam on Twitter.
For his part, West, whose last tweet was a happy birthday message to his wife, Kim, has remained silent on social media.
