Hollywood actor Ice Cube is fully behind rap star Kanye West for president in five years and dished on his support for Yeezus.

Although he would not consider running as Ye’s potential vice president nominee, Cube said he would easily vote for Kanye in 2020.

“Yeah, I’m voting for Kanye. Why not? Who else? Who’s better than Kanye to run? [Would I run for vice president with him?] No. Nah, I’m not into politics like that. I’m into, you know, helping my people over the hump. I ain’t got time to help everybody. We got a lot of work to do. [Kim Kardashian for first lady?] It’s cool. If that’s what it is, that’s what it is. No matter who’s the president, [we] all gotta get up and go to work in the morning.” (Daily Mail)

This week, presidential hopeful Donald Trump weighed-in on Kanye’s candidacy announcement.

“He’s said very nice things about me in the past… extremely positive things – I was actually watching, I saw him [announce his candidacy on the VMAs], and I said, ‘That’s very interesting. I wonder who gave him that idea?’ … He’s actually a different kind of person than people think. He’s a nice guy. I hope to run against him someday.” (Rolling Stone)

According to reports, a 24-year-old recent graduate registered “KanyeforPresident.com” and has already received five-figure offers this week.

Tramall Ferguson registered “KanyeForPresident.com” back in April on a whim … thinking maybe one day Yeezy would make it in the oval office. After Kanye’s announcement at the MTV VMAs … Tramal’s phone is blowing up with huge offers to own the domain … upwards of $80k. Tramal says he’s holding out … waiting for Kanye to call. He wouldn’t say how much he’d charge, but he was clear … Kanye’s not getting it for free. (TMZ)

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest spoke out on Kanye West’s announcement a few days ago.
