Awkward! 

That's the best way to describe the 10-minute rant from rapper Kanye West during his visit with President Donald Trump in the Oval Office of the White House on Thursday. The rant was so overwhelmingly awkward, that it forced Trump to do something he's not known for — remain silent. 

The interaction simultaneously perplexed (look for his facial expression) and thrilled late night comic Trevor Noah. Find out why he gave West a slight tip of the hat in today's Best of Late Night, above. 

Jimmy Kimmel focused on what the two off-kilter men have in common, comparing West's nutty speech to Trump's primary form of communication.
