He needs help: Celebrities react to the Trump-Kanye meeting in the oval office

President Trump invited rapper Kanye West for a scheduled luncheon at the White House on Thursday (Oct 11). The pair were to discuss prison reforms, African American employment, the creation of manufacturing jobs, and gang violence in Chicago, among other things. Although they dined privately, critics have described the televised portion of the meeting as, “disgraceful,” “embarrassing,” and “cringe-worthy.”

The rapper, who recently signed a multi-million dollar deal with Starz, shared a Superman-inspired sketch of Trump and Kanye on Instagram and captioned it with his famous tagline, “get the strap.”

The rapper shared his thoughts via social media. Kanye’s friend and long-time collaborator said, “This s*** is next level...Django a** s*** Ye,” he added, “This is the most repulsive, disgraceful, embarrassing act of desperation, and auctioning off one’s soul to gain power.”
