Apple

Kanye be Kanye, as the hip-hop artist caused a furor during his White House meeting with President Trump yesterday by revealing his password for unlocking the iPhone in his hand was just a bunch of zeroes.

Incoherent 10-minute rant aside, this was the single biggest take from the visit, as everyone and their dog retweeted the moment Kanye West keyed in a few zeroes after what looked like a failed Face ID attempt.

He then proceeded to show Donald Trump a picture of a hydrogen-fueled plane (yes, there was a lot about the future of mankind in the rant) which he said Apple should build to replace AirForce One.

The rapper said he is not running for president before 2024, then left the White House, and headed straight to the Apple Store in Georgetown, where he got on one of the tables and continued his speech circuit. The topic this time around was a new design he created for the MAGA hats, without the "Again," which he said Trump wore. Fun times.
