Kanye West Won't Listen to Pleas to Get Back on Meds Amid 'Unhinged' White House Rant: Source

People.com Exclusive

During a meeting with Donald Trump in the Oval Office on Thursday, West — who avidly supports and voted for the president in the 2016 election — claimed during a lengthy, televised discussion that he was “misdiagnosed” with bipolar disorder. (The rapper, 41, also recently revealed that he is “off medication” he had previously been taking to treat the disorder.)

According to a source close to West, people in his inner circle “are telling him that he needs to get back on his medication, that he’s not doing well, that he’s not making any sense.”

“Now he’s in the Oval Office, and he’s doing the same rant, and that’s going to validate his rants,” shares the source.

While family and close friends want to support the father of three, they don’t feel that they’re able to get through to him — in part because of POTUS’ validation.

“No one close to him can tell him that he’s sounding unhinged,” says the source, “because his answer is that the President of the United States doesn’t think so.”

He is very much like #45. No one can tell him anything. A couple of years ago, someone asked Mom Kardashian if they ever tell him , they don't like his clothes design. She said "No, no, no,no", it was the way she said it that struck me.

I hope his family can convince him to get help. Trump is a dick, and will use anyone.

His condition could be pinned to any random subject. It's irritating to us and detestable of SHITLER to exploit it.
