Kanye West says he’s ready to run for the U.S. presidency in 2020.

The announcement came mere minutes after he admitted to getting high before taking the stage to accept a Video Vanguard Award at MTV’s annual Video Music Awards where he made his revelation.

West has upped the ante on his headline-stealing antics with the latest announcement — and Twitter loves it.

Users have poked fun at everything from the “West West Wing” to Kim Kardashian as first lady. Even a parody account for the future President Kanye has hit the feed.

Here are some of the highlights:
