Rapper Kanye West visited President Trump in the Oval Office on Thursday to be supposedly talk reform prison, gang violence and Chicago.
And man, did he talk. Jim Brown and a lawyer for Gangster Disciples founder Larry Hoover, West, is about to start 10 minutes ago.
Here is the transcript:
Really the reason why they are doing positive things for the community. He started showing that he actually had power, that he was not just one of a monolithic voice, but he could wrap people around. So there's theories that there are infinite amounts of universe, and there's alternate universe, so it's very important to me to get Hoover out because of an alternate universe, I am him. I'm moving back to Chicago and it's not just about, you know, getting on stage and being an entertainer and having a monolithic voice that's forced to be a specific party.
You know people who expect you to be Democrat. I have – I have conversations that said it's the reason why it's a lot of people. Democrat. They say, you know, first of all, it's a limit to an amount of jobs. So the fathers lose the jobs and they say we will give you more money for your kids. And then we get rid of the mental health institutes in the '80s and the' 90s and the prison rates just got up Chiraq, what people call Chiraq, which is our murder rate is going down by 20 percent every year.
I just talked to the superintendent, puts with Michael Sacks, that's Rahm's right-hand man. So I think it's the bravery that helps you beat this game called life. You know they tried to scare me to not wear this hat. My own friends. But this hat, it gives me power in a way.
You know my dad and my mom separated so I did not have a lot of male energy in my home. And also, I'm married to you, you know, [laughs] not a lot of male energy going on – it's beautiful though! But there's something where you know, I love Hillary, I love everyone, right? But the campaign "I'm With Her" just did not make me feel like a guy who could not do it any more, like a guy who could play catch with his son. It was something about putting this hat on, it made me feel like Superman. You made a Superman. That's my favorite superhero. And you made a Superman cape for me, also a guy who looks up to you, looks up to Ralph Lauren, looks up to American Industry Guys, non-political, no bulls — t – put the beep on it, but you want to do it, it's just going in, and gets it done!
Right now, you give me the heart to go to Adidas. Because at Adidas, when I went in 2015, we were a $ 14 billion company losing $ 2 billion a year. Now we have a $ 38 billion market cap.
It's called "the Yeezy effect." And I went to Kasper, we had a meeting in Chicago, and I said, you have to bring onshore, inshore, not even [inaudible] – into the core. It's not about the borders, it's the core of [inaudible] and Chicago is the core of Middle America, and we have to make Middle America strong.
So I had the balls – because I had enough balls to put on this hat. I mean, this adidas thing made me a billionaire and I could have lost $ 200 million walking away from that deal. But even with that, I knew it was more important for me to take the chance to walk in Chicago than I did, but when we reformed for no-'cause, it's uh, it's empowerment, not rehabilitation, because they did not have the abilities in the first place.
We never had anyone taught us, they did not teach us. Exactly, cause "we're not having one that taught us." Right? Ha.
So it's more important than any specific deal, anything, that we bring jobs in America and that we provide a transition to mental health and the American education curriculum that Jim has worked on, Larry Hoover also has a curriculum that he's worked on, we have Montessori curriculums that were were worked on, [inaudible] has a beautiful curriculum, the Waldorf establishment has a curriculum, we have meditation.
This is a lot of things affecting our mental health. I did not say anything with the hat on, why would you keep something around that's a trap door? If you're building a floor, the Constitution is the basis of our industry, right? Of our country, of our company. Would you like to build a trap if you mess up, accidentally something happens, you fall to the Unabomber? You end up – you gotta remove all that trapdoor out of the relationship.
The four gentlemen wrote the 13th Amendment – and I think of the universe works is perfect. We do not have 13 floors, do we? You know the fourteen gentlemen wrote that the 13th Amendment did not look like the people they were amending. Also, it was illegal for blacks to read. Or African Americans to read. If you actually read the amendment, you'd get locked up! And turned into a slave!
Again, so, what I think we are not needed, we need partners. We need to talk to people. I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder. I was connected with a neuropsychologist that works with the athletes in the NBA, the NFL, and he looked at my brain [inaudible]. I'm gonna go ahead and drop some bombs for you – 98 percentile IQ test. I had a 75 percentile of all human beings, but it was counting eight numbers backwards [inaudible], repeating something. We're gonna work on that one. The other ones, 98 percent – Tesla, Freud. You know.
So he said that I actually was not bipolar, I had sleep deprivation, which would cause me dementia 10 to 20 years from now, where I would not even remember my son's name. So all this power that I got it and I'm taking it to the Sox game and all, I would not be able to remember its name from a misdiagnosis. And what we need is we can empower the pharmaceuticals and make more money. That's one thing, I've never stepped into a situation where I did not make people more money. So we can empower pharmaceuticals, we can empower our industries, we can empower our factories. We can bring not only Adidas on shore, we can bring Foxconn to a factory in Minnesota, maybe three.
Trump: Wisconsin.
Yeah, Wisconsin. They have 4,000 jobs, people making $ 53,000 a year, and one of the things we've gotten to, Ford to have the highest design, the dopest cars, the most amazing – I do not really say dope, I don 't say positive, lovely, divine, universal words. So the flyest, freshest, most amazing car, and what we want to start with – I brought up, I brought a GIF with me right here.
[Opens his phone] This right here is the iPlane 1. It's a hydrogen-powered airplane. And this is what our president should be flying in. Look at this.
Trump: We'll get rid of Air Force One [laughs in the room]. Can we get rid of Air Force One? [Turns to group near him] No? You do not like that.
Well, we're going to have Apple, an American company working on this plane.
But you know what I do not like about What I need "Saturday Night Live" to improve on, or what I need the liberals to improve on [points to Trump], we do not look good. This is our president.
Trump: It's true.
He has to be the freshest, the flyest, the flyest planes, the best factories and we have to make our core be empowered. We have to bring jobs to America, because we are doing everything in China, then we're cheating on our country. And we're putting things in the wrong place, the prison system.
Trump: I'll tell you what, that was pretty impressive. [Laughs in the room] I hate to say this – Jim, you want to say something? What do you do after that?
