Back in 2020, when the American rapper West ran for the presidency as an independent candidate, citizens had a divided opinion on it. However, the iconic TV personality Oprah Winfrey completely dismissed West’s decision to run for the president.
“I remember running into Oprah two days or one day after that. And she’s like you don’t want to be president,” West told the UFC color commentator.

When Rogan asked West to explain their interaction in detail, he replied, “One of the things Oprah said is she said, you got to bone up on your foreign affairs.”
“I remember this because it’s Oprah talking. So I’m gonna remember a lot of what the conversation was. But that’s the first thing she said was foreign affairs and foreign policies,” West added.
