Kanye West loves Donald Trump. He wants us to know this. Earlier this week, West told Hot 97 radio host Ebro, in an off-air phone conversation, that he loves the president. On Twitter for the past few days, West has been saying nice things about right-wing pundit Candace Owens and tweeting videos of Dilbert creator and online Trump-booster philosopher Scott Adams praising West for praising Owens. And now, in his latest burst of Twitter activity, West has let the world know why, exactly, he loves Trump.

For the past couple of days on Twitter, West has been using the phrase “dragon energy.” It’s not entirely clear what it means, but it seems to have something to do with the ability to shut out what the world thinks. And it’s a quality that he sees in Trump: “You don’t have to agree with trump but the mob can’t make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone.”

West doesn’t say anything about Trump’s policies, about the way that his governing is affecting actual people’s lives. It’s just about the dragon energy, apparently. Here’s what he has to say:

Hopefully, that clears everything up.

West also teased an upcoming track with Travis Scott and Lil Uzi Vert, and multiple with A$AP Rocky (“Euro“?), writing “Trav we gotta drop the track with me you and Uzi this week bro” and “Rocky we gotta release our songs ASAP.”

UPDATE: Good effort, Kim.
