In an interview with Forbes via text message, the rapper claimed he wasn't running for president but "walking", which he quickly followed up by saying he was "walking...to win."

West wouldn't say who is helping him get on ballots, or whether or not he is receiving help with his 2020 bid from Republican officials.

Although the rapper was hesitant to criticize President Donald Trump, he quickly pounced on Biden and expressed comfort with the idea of hurting the former vice president's chances of sitting in the Oval Office.

"I'm not denying it; I just told you," said West.

When it was pointed out that he won't be on enough ballots to win 270 electoral votes or win the election through write-ins is impossible, thus making his campaign a spoiler, he replied: "I'm not going to argue with you. Jesus is King."
