Kanye West told the audience at the Video Music Awards on Sunday night that he will be running for president in 2020.
After a lengthy speech accepting the Video Vanguard Award, West threw an unexpected twist at the audience.
“And yes, as you probably could have guessed by this moment, I have decided in 2020 to run for president,” he announced.
The rapper did not go into detail about his politics on Sunday night, but he and wife Kim Kardashian attended a fundraiser for Hillary Clinton earlier in August.
