Mr Trump nodded in approval, saying: “That was quite something.”
West replied: “It was from the soul. I just channelled it.”
“I love this guy right here,” West said, walking behind the desk to hug the seated president, who said: “That’s really nice.”
On the Trump hat and Hillary Clinton
During a 10-minute monologue that ranged from prison reform to manufacturing, politics and the universe, West said: “They tried to scare me, my friends to not wear this hat, but this hat, it gives me power in a way.
“You know, my dad and my mum separated, so I didn’t have a lot of male energy in my home.”
He continued: “I love Hillary, I love everyone, right.

“But the campaign, I’m With Her, just didn’t make me feel as a guy that didn’t get to see my dad all the time, like a guy that could play catch with his son.”
Addressing Mr Trump, he added: “There was something about when I put this hat on it made me feel like Superman.
“You made a Superman – that’s my favourite superhero – you made a Superman cape for me.”
On a future presidential run
Mr Trump was asked by a journalist if West could be a future presidential candidate, and the president replied: “Could very well be.”
West told reporters: “Let’s stop worrying about the future, all we have is today.
“Trump is on his hero’s journey right now.”
“You might not have expected a crazy [expletive] like Kanye running up to support.”
On schools
“Sometimes people say, ‘This kid has ADD [Attention Deficit Disorder], this kid has ADD.'”
“You don’t have ADD, school is boring.
“It is boring, it’s not as exciting as this,” he said gesturing towards his mobile phone.
On North Korea
“I like the North Korea,” West said.
“You stopped the war,” he told Mr Trump.
“Day One, solved one of his biggest problems. We solved one of the biggest problems.”
His first White House visit
West visited Mr Trump at his eponymous Manhattan skyscraper in 2016, a month after he won the election, but this was the rapper’s first trip to the White House.
His wife, reality TV star Kim Kardashian, has made two visits to the White House.

During her first trip there, she successfully argued to have a grandmother’s prison sentence commuted by Mr Trump.
At a separate White House event on Thursday, Mr Trump appeared alongside rocker Kid Rock, as he signed the Music Moderization Act which updates copyright laws in the era of online streaming.
