50 Cent: There's No Difference Between Kanye West and Donald Trump Running for President

He also wants to be a consultant for 'Ye.

Kanye West planted the seed during the 2015 VMA Awards that in 2020 he will be running for president of the United States in a passionate speech that had people wondering if he was serious or joking.

While this year’s election season is fast approaching, 50 Cent recently shared his opinions about West running for president with TV host Conan O’Brien.

“I like the idea of him running,” he says. 

“That’s a lot of responsibilities,” the rapper continued. “It’s the same thing like with Trump.”

Conan then clarified that Fif meant to say he feels there was no difference between the two running. The rapper went on to say that both are non-traditional candidates. 

In a separate conversation during a podcast, the rapper continued sharing the sentiment that he supports West, saying that he doesn’t really care if ‘Ye wins or not, but that he thinks he should run.

The hosts of the radio show erupted into laughter, supporting 50’s comments and pressing that he should run as vice president, but the rapper pointed out that he has felonies so he could only be a consultant.
