Chance The Rapper has expressed on Twitter that he would trust Kanye West more than Joe Biden as a US president.

Kanye West announced that he will be running for US president in 2020 earlier this month, and yesterday (13 July) on Twitter, Chance The Rapper shared his thoughts about this year's candidates, expressing his support for Kanye West.

Chance The Rapper began the political discussion by reposted Kanye West's latest single "Donda", writing, "And yall out here tryna convince me to vote for Biden. Smfh."

He then asked his followers why Joe Biden would be a better president than Trump, "Are u more pro biden or anti ye and why? I get that you’ll want to reply that you’re just tryna "get trump out" but in this hypothetical scenario where you’re replacing Trump, can someone explain why Joe Biden would be better??"

In another tweet, Chance The Rapper continued, "I finally got the answer now. I understand. Yall trust Biden more than yall trust Ye. I think I understand why, I just don’t feel the same way."

One user asked Chance The Rapper to "give me one solid platform he has? One thing he’s actively looking to improve that he can only do so as president? or does he just want to?", resulting in the rapper replying, "Reparations. Prison Abolition. Universal Basic Housing. Education Reform. Universal Basic Income. There’s more but ion work for folks so ill let him do his job. Just saying we been doing this thing the same way for a long time. Can a blck man get a chance."

Kanye West is still yet to file paperwork for his US presidency campaign, and discussed some of his views in a recent interview with Forbes, which revealed he is "pro-life" and "extremely cautious" of vaccinations.
