Kanye West took the VMA's by storm Sunday when he concluded a historic 12-minute speech by announcing he would run for president in 2020.

When West was out to dinner after the show and asked by reporters if his campaign plans were serious, he offered voters a huge, impossible incentive.

"If I win, everybody gets Yeezys," the hip-hop mogul said.

West was of course referring to his extremely popular shoes which recently sold out just hours after their release and people are going crazy for.

The Yeezy Boost 350's (when in stock) are selling retail for $200, but on eBay are currently going for hundreds more. West's net worth is $130 million, so by doing the math it's easy to tell providing "everyone" with Yeezy's would be pretty impossible.

West's offer might indeed be a joke/PR plug for the shoes, but if that's the case it's a pretty good one.
