Kanye West Announces Presidential Run as He Accepts Award From Taylor Swift at MTV VMAs (Video)

Six years after having her spotlight stolen by Kanye West, Taylor Swift took to the stage at the 2015 MTV Video Music Awards to present the rapper with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award.

“I’ma let you finish, but Kanye West has had one of the greatest careers of all time,” the pop star said before presenting the award to West with a long hug.

After giving a long speech critical of awards shows and politics, West then told the crowd he plans to run for president in 2020.

“I have decided in 2020 to run for president,” he said.

More to come.
