The rapper, who has become one of Trump’s highest-profile celebrity supporters, visited the White House Thursday, where his planned lunch meeting with the president, Jared Kushner and Ivanka, Kid Rock and Hall of Fame running back Jim Brown gave way to a meandering 10-minute monologue.

Bush as racist while defending Trump (“I was in a victim mentality”) and announced that he had been misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder when he was actually merely sleep deprived. Here is the full transcript from their planned lunch meeting, as provided by the White House Press Office. Related: The NRA loved Kanye West’s Oval Office monologue. Other celebs?
