Little is known about what went down at this morning's meeting between President-Elect Donald Trump and Mr. Kim Kardashian Kanye West at Trump Tower in New York.
At first glance, the sweat-shirted West looked like he might be dropping by to hit the Trump Tower gym:

Thirty minutes after the oddly tight-lipped Kanye went into the elevator, he re-emerged with PEOTUS, where they posed for pictures and some slightly awkward man hugging:

Few details, other than Trump saying that the two have been friends "a long time" and that they discussed "life," were given post chat. West's only reply to questions was that he "just wanted to get a picture right now."
UPDATE: West took to Twitter since the meeting, explaining that they discussed issues including "bullying, supporting teachers, modernizing curriculums, and violence in Chicago." West went on to explain, "I feel it is important to have a direct line of communication with our future President if we truly want change."
