Kanye West wasn’t kidding about that presidential run. At least, John Legend doesn’t think so.
For years, there has been talks about West running for fice. First it was 2020, but apparently his sights have shifted to a potential . The thing is, no one really knows if or when this went from a publicity stunt to an actual goal the hip hop icon.
Upon accepting the MTV VMA Vanguard Award in 2015, West ended his speech with, “As you probably could have guessed by this moment, I have decided in 2020 to run for president.” And, just yesterday he tweeted out, “2024.”
Now, John Legend has weighed in. During a with with Dan Wootton The Sun, the Grammy-award winning singer and personal friend , “I think he’s serious.”
“I don’t know how he would run…” he continued. “If I were to guess, I’d think he’d probably run as an independent.”
Legend also shared his own unfavorable opinion President Donald Trump. “He’s done enough to get impeached. He’s done enough to embarrass the nation, to use the fice to enrich himself and to abuse his power that he should not be president anymore, if there’s any justice.”
“That doesn’t mean it’s going to happen, because it’s a political process and legislators have to vote for it. But he deserves to be removed from fice.”
Kanye West, however, has been an enthusiastic supporter President Trump since the beginning.
