It's official! On July 4, America's national holiday, rapper Kanye West announced that he would be running for president in the 2020 election. He will therefore oppose Donald Trump and Joe Biden. It is on Twitter, a network dear to the artist, that he formalized his desire to be at the head of the United States. After showing his support for the current president and then admitting that it was a ploy, Kanye West has once again demonstrated ambitions as big as his ego. Music, production, designer and soon president? The Chicago native is looking to add a new line to his already full resume. 
It is necessary to remember that in his early days, Kanye West was very committed, especially to the African-American cause. Indeed, he was an artist who did not have his tongue in his pocket and did not hesitate to defend his neighbor. We can mention in particular his intervention on a TV set during Hurricane Katrina where he says that " George Bush does not care about blacks" For his campaign, he has a strong ally in the person of Elon Musk. The wealthy founder of the Tesla brand responded to Kanye's tweet by showing his "total support". We do not know any more. But after all, Donald Trump managed to become the tenant of the White House. So why wouldn't Kanye West make it? Anything is possible in Uncle Sam's country. What is certain is that 2020 still has its share of surprises in store for us.
