Kanye West has taken to Twitter to explain his surprising yet also completely not surprising visit to Trump Tower today. His comments on meeting with President-Elect Donald Trump mark his first tweets since October and his first public statement since his hospitalization under psychiatric hold last month. West wrote, "I wanted to meet with Trump today to discuss multicultural issues. These issues included bullying, supporting teachers, modernizing curriculums, and violence in Chicago. I feel it is important to have a direct line of communication with our future President if we truly want change." West also apparently has postponed his presidential campaign until 2024.
