Rap superstar Kanye West is not just promoting President Trump — hes also trashing former president Barack Obama.

Kanye tweeted Wednesday:

Obama was in office for eight years and nothing in Chicago changed.

This comes after Kanye tweeted a photo of himself wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat Wednesday. (RELATED: Kanye West Sports Make America Great Again Hat In New Photo — Trump Responds)

Kanye distancing himself from Obama and endorsing Trump seems to be a slap in the face to the former president for a few reasons.

Obama infamously called Kanye a “jackass” in 2009. But after that incident, Obama still put Kanyes songs on his playlists. (RELATED: Chance The Rapper: Black People Dont Have To Be Democrats)

West also reportedly told Hot 97s Ebro Darden that he “couldnt get anything done” with Obama.

Kanyes newfound support for Trump is also a bad look for Obama as Kanye comes from Chicago, Illinois, the city where Obama first cut his teeth as a politician.
