What Donald Trump has taught us all this election cycle is that nobody should be counted out to become the next US President, especially if you happen to be a celebrity like Mr. Trump.
It’s easy to dismiss recording artist Kayne West, who announced earlier this year he will be running for President in 2020, as a serious candidate for that role. Yet the folks at BetOnline were offering him at 500-1 odds. There were some books that offered US President-Elect Trump at a similar price a few years back when the real estate mogul first started flirting with running.
On Tuesday, West was photographed with Trump at Trump Tower.
From the Associated Press:
West stood silently next to the president-elect for photos in the lobby of Trump Tower after their meeting. Asked why he wasn't speaking, West said, "I just want to take a picture right now."
Trump said he and West were "just friends" and called the musician a "good man." He said they discussed "life." The two did not answer questions about whether West would perform at the Inauguration.
West entered the building shortly after 9 a.m. with a large entourage. He was not accompanied by wife Kim Kardashian West.
In 2005 following the devestation in New Orleans brought on by Hurricane Katrina and the thousands of misplaced residents, most of whom were African American, West remarked of the current Republican President George W. Bush "President Bush doesn't care about black people".
Needless-to-say, Kayne West was top trending on everyone’s Twitter feed Tuesday morning.
