When rap artist Kanye West announced Sunday night that he would run for President in 2020 it left the world — and the White House — guessing as to what his campaign slogan would be.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters Monday that he’s looking forward to seeing West’s campaign swag gear, according to Bloomberg.

“I look forward to seeing what slogan he chooses to embroider on his campaign hat,” Earnest said on the way to Alaska with the President, according to the publication.

If his social media presence is any indication, West would run a colorful campaign.

    “Kanye West Doesn’t Care About White People” :wink:

    His VP choice:

    Mike Meyers, of course
