Kanye West meets President Trump in the Oval Office of The White House
Kanye West took his bromance with President Donald Trump to another level.
The rapper, who has become one of Trump’s highest-profile celebrity supporters, visited the White House Thursday, where his planned lunch meeting with the president, Jared Kushner and Ivanka, Kid Rock and Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown gave way to a meandering 10-minute monologue.
During the wide-ranging discussion, West dropped an F-bomb, (“Put the beep on however you want to do it and have a five-second delay,” he warned reporters), explained why he famously derided former President George W. Bush as racist while defending Trump (“I was in a victim mentality”) and announced that he had been misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder when he was actually merely sleep deprived.
Here is the full transcript from their planned lunch meeting, as provided by the White House Press Office.
Trump: And what people don’t know, Kanye – everybody knows, right? Every – does the world know Kanye? Kanye, what people don’t know about Jim – they say – first of all, he’s the best football player. But they say he was an even better lacrosse player. Do you think so?
Brown: Never thought about it.
Trump: Huh?
Brown: Never thought about it.
Trump: I heard he was even – at Syracuse.
Brown: I love the game. Yes, I loved it. I loved all the sports.
Trump: Well, it’s great to have you, Jim. Great to have you.
Brown It’s good to be here, Mr. President.
Trump: Kanye, it’s great to be with you.
