The artist, who goes by the name Ye, posted Thursday a swirling symbol on his Twitter account with 'Ye' and the number 24, apparently representing 2024, the year of the next US presidential election.
WASHINGTON - The rapper and fashion designer Kanye West has suggested he will run for president and wants Donald Trump to be his running mate. Trump, for his part, brushed aside a recent meeting with West as of no significance.
"I think the thing that Trump was most perturbed about me asking him to be my vice president," West said. Trump posted on Friday on his Truth Social platform about his meeting with West, saying the two discussed politics "to a lesser extent" than business, and that West had asked Trump "for advice concerning some of his difficulties."
Trump said the rapper called ahead to arrange the dinner, then "unexpectedly showed up with three of his friends, whom I knew nothing about." West is a veteran at garnering publicity -- and dabbling in politics. He ran for president in 2020, but got fewer than 70,000 votes, coming in seventh place.
