Comedian Chris Rock announced via Twitter that he is throwing his candidacy into the ring in the 2020 race for the White House.
"I'm gonna run in 2020 wish me luck," Rock tweeted on Thursday, two days after GOP candidate Donald Trump won the 2016 presidential race to become 45th president of the United States.
Rock used artwork from his comedy film "Head of State," to make the announcement. Rock starred as Mays Gilliam, a Washington, D.C. alderman who's chosen as a sacrificial candidate in what's considered an unwinnable race, only to find himself victorious in the election.
If a former reality TV host with no government experience and a flair for enraging large swaths of the country somehow ascended to the highest office in the US, why not Rock, or rapper Kanye West?
In addition to the incumbent, rapper Kanye West announced his intention to run in the 2020 presidential election last year.
