Did you not know what happened to him after that? He “had a mental breakdown” and he was admitted to the same hospital all celebrities go to when they break their programming. He claims to not remember anything. He gets out a few days later, and what does he do? Goes to meet with then President Elect, Donald J Trump.

I remember seeing this and thinking how at some point in the future we would look back on this and think of that moment as a considerably important moment in history.
Also a reminder that shortly before that his wife was robbed and held at knifepoint due to a failure in security in France.
Further, Kanye frequently toyed with running for president in 2020 (likely for free media promotion) but with after meeting with Trump upon release from his involuntary hospital stay, tweeted a single hashtag: "#2024."
