SLIDESHOW: DONALD TRUMP’S 30 CRAZIEST TWEETS

 

His tweet came as a response to Kanye West going on a Twitter rant and voicing his strong approval of Trump.

 

Trump saw Chance’s tweet as a stamp of approval and thanked him in a tweet.

 

Chance responded with a tweet that said, “I ain’t in it.”

 

Chance also posted a tweet with caption, “My fault yo” referring to his defense of Kanye.

 

He reiterated that he does not support Trump and never could.

“I’d never support anyone who has made a career out of hatred, racism, and discrimination. I’d never support someone who’d talk about Chicago as if it’s a hell on earth and then take steps to make life harder here for the most disenfranchised among us. I understand why people are disappointed with my words, but I was raised to believe actions speak louder than words,” he said.

He has used his fame to help communities.  “Let my apology be seen in my future works, and let me make up for my poorly timed comments with immediate action and advocacy for those who need it most,” he said.
