Kanye West Tempts Trump Twitter Blowback By Boasting He’s Richer Than the President
Kanye West tested his fate during an interview for Nick Cannon’s podcast Cannon Class, claiming he cannot be in “cahoots” with the GOP as he runs for president because he has “more money than Trump.”

“Bro, can’t nobody pay me. I got more money than Trump,” West joked:
