Kanye West took to Twitter on Wednesday morning to share that he met with Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Largo resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

The rapper said he discussed with the former United States of America (USA) president about being running mates in the 2024 US election. However, he kept his followers in suspense about Trump's answer to his request.

In the Tweet, he detailed his journey to meet with Trump and said it was rainy and there was a lot of traffic on the road, which caused him to be late.
