Jared Kushner, White House adviser and son-in-law of President Donald Trump, confirmed on Thursday 13-A that he recently met with rapper Kanye West, who seeks to run in the US presidential elections on November 3.
West is a Trump supporter and some see his intention to run for president as a strategy designed to harm Democrat Joe Biden.
Asked whether he had discussed campaign issues with West, Kushner told reporters at the White House: “We had a general discussion, more on politics.”
On July 16 it was reported: Rapper Kanye West, who on July 4 announced his candidacy for the US Presidency, registered his electoral campaign committee with the Federal Elections Commission on Thursday and obtained approval to appear in the Oklahoma state ballots.
Oklahoma is the first state in which West is officially considered an independent candidate, something he achieved at the last minute, submitting the necessary documentation and paying the required $ 35,000 just as the term was up.
