Donald Trump appears to have expressed concern for Kanye West following their meeting earlier this week, describing the musician as a seriously troubled man.

Rapper Gold Digger West visited Mr Trumps Mar-A-Lago home in Palm Beach, Florida to ask the former US president to be his running mate when he himself runs for the White House during the 2024 presidential election.

However, it appears Mr Trump, 76, rejected West’s offer to join his candidacy and even advised the rapper to step down from his campaign.

Their meeting was all the more contentious because West brought with him far-right commentator Nick Fuentes, whom even some Republicans have reportedly denounced.

Addressing their meeting of minds, Mr. Trump wrote in a post on his Truth Social platform: So I help a seriously troubled man, who happens to be black, Ye (Kanye West), who was decimated in his business and pretty much everything else. , and who has always been good to me, accepting his request to meet at Mar-a-Lago, alone, so that I can give him some much-needed advice.

Mr Trump continued: He’s showing up with 3 people, two of whom I didn’t know, the other a politician I haven’t seen in years. I told him not to run for office, total waste of time, I can’t win. Fake news has gone CRAZY!

West, 45, first revealed his visit to Mar-A-Lago in a tweet on Tuesday, which read: First time at Mar-a-Lago. Rain and traffic.

I can’t believe I kept President Trump waiting. And I had Yikes jeans.

He then added: What do you think his response was when I asked him to be my running mate in 2024?

The Grammy-winning rapper then opened up about the trip and claimed that Mr Trump was most disturbed by his request for the former POTUS to be his vice-president.

I think that was lower on the list of things that caught him off guard. It’s the fact that I walked in with intelligence, West said in a video posted to his recently restored Twitter account.

West also claimed that Mr. Trump was genuinely impressed with Fuentes, whose YouTube channel was permanently suspended in 2020 for violating the video platforms’ hate speech policy.

The Jesus Walks rapper described Fuentes as a loyalist as he referenced the January 6 capitol riot in the United States in 2021, asking: Why, when you had the chance, didn’t you? you not released on January 6th?

Came up to him like someone who loves Trump and said go get Corey [Lewandowski] come back, get those people the media tried to cancel and told you to walk away.

West went on to recall how Mr Trump spoke about the release of Alice Johnson from prison, which Kim Kardashian had previously pleaded with the then president to grant clemency.

According to West, Mr Trump said he didn’t do it for Kim, but he did it for me, before alleging the former US president made a disparaging remark about the ex – West’s wife.

I thought it was the mother of my children, said the founder of Yeezy.

He added: When Trump started yelling at me at the table saying I was going to lose, I mean, did that ever work for anyone in history? I’m like, wait Trump, you’re talking to Ye.

The video then ended with a title card that simply read: Ye24.

Later, Mr. Trump downplayed the nature of the meeting and wrote on Truth Social: Last week Kanye West called me for dinner at Mar-a-Lago. Shortly after, he unexpectedly showed up with three of his friends, whom I knew nothing about.

We dined on Tuesday evening with many members present on the back patio. Dinner was quick and uneventful. They then left for the airport.
