At this point, Kanye West feels like a complete train wreck. You don’t want to watch, but you can’t help it.

Maybe it’s because he’s an “in your face” kind of guy who will literally show up ANYWHERE just to rant about something.

Maybe it’s because despite what comes out his mouth, he continues to be entertaining.

Maybe it’s because, for some fans, deep down in our hearts we’re mourning the death of the Kanye we knew, and we’re searching for some glimmer of hope.

Whatever the reason may be, many people tuned in to Kanye’s visit with Donald Trump on Thursday. And if you weren’t watching on T.V. or online, a lot of folks tuned into Twitter for the outrageous moments.

Ye certainly didn’t disappoint with the inflammatory statements and bizarre behavior. Some highlights were pure WTF moments, while others were just plain devastating to watch. Hit the next pages to find out which moments rank in the list of Kanye-ology.

8.

Let’s just start off with the basics…

The moment Kanye went up to Trump and said “I love this guy right here.”

7.

When the whole world realized Kanye’s phone password was “0000.”

if ( 'function' === typeof window.addEventListener ) {
window.addEventListener( 'message', funcSizeResponse, false );
} else if ( 'function' === typeof window.attachEvent ) {
window.attachEvent( 'onmessage', funcSizeResponse );
}
}
if (document.readyState === 'complete') { func.apply(); /* compat for infinite scroll */ }
else if ( document.addEventListener ) { document.addEventListener( 'DOMContentLoaded', func, false ); }
else if ( document.attachEvent ) { document.attachEvent( 'onreadystatechange', func ); }
} )();

6.

When Kanye suggested Trump should be flying in an Apple-made iPlane One…

5.

That time Kanye said, “Let’s stop worrying about the future, all we have is today. Trump is on his hero’s journey right now. He might not have thought he’d have a crazy motherfu**er like (me).”

id="wpcom-iframe-0e3e364305f0c1107de22916bb977958-51287776-117076425"

4.

When Kanye compared the MAGA hat to the Man of Steel:

“There was something about when I put this hat on that made me feel like Superman. That’s my favorite superhero. You made a Superman cape for me.”

id="wpcom-iframe-93dda22bb93563142fe09f93dc0ee621-51287776-117076425"

3.

That time Kanye said we need to be concerned with making Trump look good:

“What I need Saturday Night Live to improve on or what I need the liberals to improve on is, if he don’t look good, we don’t look good. This is our president. He has to be the freshest, the flyest, the flyest planes, the best factories.”

…instead of “if we don’t look good, he doesn’t look good” because he’s a president and supposed to be representing us.

But okay Kanye.

2.

The moment Kanye pretty much gave a sexist reason as to why he didn’t vote for Hillary Clinton:

“There’s something about … I love Hillary. I love everyone. But the campaign ‘I’m With Her’ just didn’t make me feel, as a guy that didn’t get to see his dad all the time, like a guy who could play catch with his son.”

id="wpcom-iframe-00462b1d0c891f0e878e9008b16d568b-51287776-117076425"

1.

When Kanye spoke for the entire Black community when explaining racism, then later said racism doesn’t stop him and “that’s an invisible wall.”

All nuance was lost.

And there you have it.

Until the next Kanye crash meeting.
