It’s only 10 days or so since Kanye West announced his surprise candidacy in the 2020 race for the White House.

Possibly less surprising than his initial announcement are the reports today that he has now dropped out.

NO!

There was no shortage of funny responses.

This is disappointing. He fought a great campaign for very nearly 12 days. https://t.co/kH5qjLxuR2

God told him to do it just over a week ago, now God is telling him not to do it? Is God trying to waste Kanye's time or something?

But one of the best came from an unlikely source, you might think. And it’s not even the American Burger King.

Flame grilled.
