West is an outspoken supporter of President Trump and earlier in the day tweeted: "You don't have to agree with Trump but the mob can't make me not love him. We are both dragon energy. He is my brother. I love everyone. I don't agree with everything anyone does. That's what makes us individuals. And we have the right to independent thought."

The President responded to the rapper on Twitter saying: "Thank you Kanye, very cool!"
In West's selfie, captioned "we got love," he is alongside two unidentified men.
Later in the day, West shared an image of a message from hip-hop artist Chance the Rapper saying “Black people don't have to be democrats”.

West's tweets come as the rapper ends his social media hiatus.
The rapper's wife, Kim Kardashian West, has also been active on Twitter. In a series of tweets, Kardashian West criticised the media who "demonise" her husband and spoke out about mental health.
She tweeted: "To the media trying to demonise my husband let me just say this... your commentary on Kanye being erratic and his tweets being disturbing is actually scary. So quick to label him as having mental health issues for just being himself when he has always been expressive is not fair."

Yesterday it was announced that Kanye had parted ways with some business people and media outlets made this about Kanye’s mental health. Rather than just a simple business decision. So I’m glad he tweeted about the state of his company and all of the exciting things happening

He’s a free thinker, is that not allowed in America? Because some of his ideas differ from yours you have to throw in the mental health card? That’s just not fair. He’s actually out of the sunken place when he’s being himself which is very expressive

Now when he spoke out about Trump... Most people (including myself) have very different feelings & opinions about this. But this is HIS opinion. I believe in people being able to have their own opinions,even if really different from mine
He never said he agrees with his politics— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) April 25, 2018
Kanye will never run in the race of popular opinion and we know that and that’s why I love him and respect him and in a few years when someone else says the same exact thing but they aren’t labeled the way he is and you will all praise them! Kanye is years ahead of his time

Mental Health is no joke and the media needs to stop spitting that out so casually. Bottom line

On Twitter, Kardashian West made it a point to state that her views differ from her husband's when it comes to President Trump, before concluding: "Mental Health is no joke and the media needs to stop spitting that out so casually. Bottom line."
West's erratic and often philosophical tweets come after it was announced that he'd parted ways with his manager of three years, Scooter Braun.
Despite the split, West tweeted: "I'd like Scooter Braun to be a part of this new platform we're creating. Scooter is a genius. He's more than a manager so is Irving. We all need to sit together."
