Oh Christ, Yeezus, why?
Kanye West has rocked up to Trump Tower to attend a meeting with President-Elect Donald Trump.
The two were pretty quiet about what exactly they spoke about, with Trump deflecting the gathering press questions with the simple answer:
“Life. We talked about life.”
He also told the horde of cameras that he and Kanye had been very friends for a “very long time”.
Press continued to badger Kanye for a statement on why he was there.
One reporter told him “You’re meeting with the President of the United States and you’ve got nothing to say?”, to which Kanye calmly and politely responded “I just want to take a picture right now” with a smile on his face.
Watch the entirely fucking weird situation here:

Understandably, fans are absolutely flipping – one of Kanye‘s last erratic rants before ending up in hospital for a nervous breakdown was stopping a ‘Saint Pablo’ show to tell the crowd he would be a Trump voter,
“I told y’all I didn’t vote right? …But if I were to have voted, I would have voted for Trump.”

Donald Trump was also one of the people laying in bed naked (it was a statue, obvi) in Kanye‘s video for ‘Famous’ earlier this year, which caused a helluva lot of backlash.
And the final and undeniably concerning kicker is – Kanye has publicly said a few times that he is planning on running for President himself in 2020.
There’s even people responding to tweets on this story, heavily speculating that Kanye could get a spot in Trump‘s cabinet.
@SteveKopack cabinet post, you think?

Look, we’re not saying Yeezy would run as a Republican, but hell – who actually can predict what he’s doing rn.
Crazier things have happened. I mean, the dude who did this shit on WWE is now the leader of the free world, so we ain’t predicting shit no more.
