Kanye West’s tweets bring all the peeps to virtual yard.
The Stronger rapper took a rather long hiatus from Twitter, but he now seems to be making up for lost time with the number of tweets he’s sharing with the world.
Anyone who has an alert for Kanye’s tweets on their phone would have had their device beep over 80 times on Wednesday as the 40-year-old revealed his love for US President, Donald Trump.
You don't have to agree with trump but the mob can't make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don't agree with everything anyone does. That's what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought.

Calling Trump his “brother”, Kanye said that they both have “dragon energy” and “the mob can’t make me not love him.”
The father of 3 followed up the dedication with a photograph of his “Make America Great Again” cap.
In response to the tweets, Love You Now singer, John Legend, decided to text the rapper, imploring him to reconsider his alignment with Trump as many of his fans felt betrayed by his doing so.
Kanye not only responded to the Oscar winner by saying that bringing up his fans and legacy “is a tactic to based on fear used to manipulate my free thought,” but he also shared the convo on Twitter.

Kanye explained the move with a follow up tweet:
I tweeted the John text to show that there are people around me that disagree with me and voice their opinion. I respect everyone's opinion but I stand my ground.

To his credit, John took it in his stride, saying that since Kanye is now posting texts, he added a reminded that he has a new single out.
