Twitter Reacts After Trump & Kanye West Talk About "Life"
PHILADELPHIA (CBS/AP)-- Twitter wasn't holding back their emotions after rapper Kanye West and President-elect Donald Trump got together to talk about "life" at Trump Tower.
West stood silently next to the president-elect for photos in the lobby of Trump Tower after their meeting. Asked why he wasn't speaking, West said, "I just want to take a picture right now."
Trump said he and West were "just friends" and called the musician a "good man." He said they discussed "life." The two did not answer questions about whether West would perform at the Inauguration.
Twitter quickly went into a frenzy over the meeting:
