So many things have completely changed in just one short month. The Russians are the bad guys again. Questioning the results of an election is patriotic again. Our time-tested system of checks and balances is sacred again. And a president meeting with a celebrity is, at long last, bad again.

Kaitlan Collins reports:

Kanye West met with Donald Trump at Trump Tower, and it’s all people can talk about.

The 39-year-old rapper — who was released from the hospital less than two weeks ago after he had a nervous breakdown — sat down with the president-elect for an approximately 15 minutes on Tuesday to discuss “life,” Trump said.
