Kanye West continues to deliver sensational details about his 2020 presidential run, despite an apparent lack of an actual campaign.
The rapper, 43, said in a “rambling” interview Tuesday with Forbes that he contracted the coronavirus in February, no longer supports President Donald Trump and plans to run as a member of the “Birthday Party.”
“Because when we win, it’s everybody’s birthday.”

In a sudden 180-degree shift after showing public support for the president, West said he has lost confidence in Trump’s leadership.
“I am taking the red hat off………….It looks like one big mess to me. I don’t like that I caught wind that he hid in the bunker… One of the main reasons I wore the red hat as a protest to the segregation of votes in the Black community. Also, other than the fact that I like Trump hotels and the saxophones in the lobby.”

As for his own political aspirations, West said his running mate will be Michelle Tidball, a preacher based in Wyoming, where West and wife Kim Kardashian have a ranch. The rapper said he registered to vote for the first time in Cody, Wyoming, on Monday.
USA TODAY has reached out to Tidball for comment.
There is no evidence as of Wednesday that West has a campaign organization, nor is there any indication he has filed papers with the Federal Election Commission just four months before the Nov. 3 election.
Despite the apparent lack of an official campaign, West, who tweeted at the end of June about having a “forthcoming album,” denied to Forbes that the run was a publicity stunt and said he planned on giving the album away for free.
What might a West presidency look like? He said he “wants to use the framework of Wakanda,” the fictional setting of 2018’s “Black Panther.” Policy-wise, he “hasn’t done much research yet” on taxes or foreign policy but says he is against the death penalty and wants to end police brutality. He also doesn’t know if he “would use the word policy for the way I would approach things.”
“When I’m president, let’s also have some fun,” he said. “Let’s get past all the racism conversation, let’s empower people with 40 acres and a mule, let’s give some land, that’s the plan.”
