Kanye West told us. In 2015. Why didn't we listen? (Title edited for clarity)

Here are “all the details” from the article.

“I have decided to run for president in 2020.”

We’ve got to start paying attention to the VMAs! What did who say this year? We need to know!

We did listen. Then we rolled our eyes and went on with life.

Especially since he didn’t actually do anything about it for another five freakin’ years… and even now only seems to be making only a half-assed effort, largely propped up by GOP operatives.

I recall him mentioning a run for POTUS on David Letterman’s Netflix show. The audience laughed. West, clearly annoyed, turned to the audience and snapped, “Why y’all laughin’?” That’s when I knew he’d probably go through with it.

I wasn’t worried, though. I figured he’d screw it up, and he has.
