While speaking to the crowd, Barack offered some advice to Kanye about running for president in 2020.
“In case Kanye is serious about this whole POTUS thing, or as he calls it ‘Peezy,’ first off all, you gotta spend a lot of time dealing with strange characters who behave as if they are on a reality TV show,” the President joked, alluding to Kanye‘s reality star wife Kim Kardashian.
“Saying that you have a beautiful, dark, twisted, fantasy, that’s what’s known as off-message in politics…Do you really think this country is going to elect a black guy from the South Side of Chicago with a funny name to be president of the United States?” he questioned, jokingly alluding to his own Presidential wins.
