Yesterday morning, Kanye West was filmed walking into Trump Tower for a 15-minute meeting with the president-elect. Ye, who supported Trump at recent concerts, later explained that he met Trump to discuss “issues included bullying, supporting teachers, modernizing curriculums, and violence in Chicago.” Last night, Stephen Colbert used his opening bit to poke fun at the meeting, saying it gathered “the two most powerful American narcissists in the same room.” He went on, “I heard these two are going to drop an album together—it’s called The Deportation of Pablo.” Watch the clip below.
West’s statements yesterday came via his first tweets in nearly two months. They were also his first since being admitted to (and then released from) a hospital for psychiatric evaluation. Before meeting Trump, his only post-hospital public appearance was at a furniture design show in Los Angeles. One of his tweets read “#2024,” likely in reference to his 2015 VMAs declaration that he would run for president in 2020. He has since reaffirmed that intention, but it now appears he’s allowing for the possibility of a second Trump term.
