Kanye West realizes no one man should have all that power, deletes Trump tweets

The Muslim ban was a pretty bad way to start the conversation.

Kanye West has finally seen what happens when one man has all the power, and he doesn't like it.

West has deleted the tweets he posted about Donald Trump following West's meeting with the then-president elect in December. But apparently Yeezy isn't impressed by what Trump's done since then, particularly the immigration ban, according to TMZ. West is about connectivity, after all.

West's only tweets from 2017 that remain shout out new albums from Big Sean and Migos.

Keeping up with Kim Kardashian West is often the best way to know what's going on with her husband. Following the executive order, she tweeted a very matter-of-fact look at Americans' likelihood of actually being killed by Islamic jihadist immigrants, which is quite small.

Trump also proved that he's not a real friend to West just before taking office, despite previous claims, by shutting him out of inauguration activities with some pretty coded language from his team claiming that West wasn't "traditionally American" enough to participate.

Still, we shouldn't get ahead of ourselves and assume that a few deleted tweets actually mean something until West confirms that he's had a change of heart. He does have a habit of deleting tweets en masse, including what is certainly the greatest tweet of all time.

Despite wiping this piece of solid 140 characters or less gold from his account, he probably still hates being responsible for water bottles.
