For some odd reason, West and Trump met Tuesday morning, and Trump couldn’t help pointing out that he’s been friends with West for years and that he’s a good man. A good man who doesn’t know how to pick good friends, obviously.

West didn’t answer questions from reporters about whether or not he’d perform at the inauguration or what the meeting was even about.

“I just want to take a picture right now,” West said, smiling.

“You take care of yourself; I’ll see you soon,” Trump told West.

Of course social media had a lot to say about the meeting, and for the most part, everyone basically asked, “WYD?”
