Rapper Kanye’s White House bid rumoured to be over after 10 days

-

It seems the next series of Keeping Up with The Kardashian­s might not be from the White House after all.

For the fate of campaign for President has been thrown into turmoil after just 10 days.

The rapper, 43, had announced his candidacy for leader of the free world on July 4, Independen­ce Day in the United States – via favourite method of communicat­ion: Twitter.

The star, also known as Yeezus, wrote: “We must now realise the promise of America by trusting God, unifying our vision and building our future. I am running for president of the United States! #2020VISION.”

However, yesterday that vision was already getting cloudy – as campaign team member

hired to help Kanye get on the ballot in Florida and South Carolina, told US reporters the star was now out of the race. When

Steve Donald Trump’s Kramer, Kanye West’s

asked to elaborate, he told New York Magazine: “I’ll let you know what I know once I get all our stuff cancelled. We had over 180 people out there today.

“I have nothing good or bad to say about Kanye.”

If confirmed, it will have been an incredibly short campaign for the 21-time Grammy winner turned Sunday Service Church founder.

Kanye reps did not return requests for comment last night.

But there were some signs he’s not given up just yet, after reports he’d just filed one of two mandatory forms with the Federal Electoral Commission. A recent poll meanwhile suggested pro-life anti-vaxxer Kanye would get 2% of the vote. It might not stack up to Democrat

48% and Republican Trump’s 39%, but with around 153 million registered voters in the US, that still means a potential three million want to usher in the age of President Yeezus and First Lady Wow.

OUT? Kanye West
