Looking for Kanye West's Twitter and Instagram accounts? Sorry, they no longer exist—again. In the wake of his pro-Trump speech on SNL and a tweet suggesting "we abolish the 13th amendment" (which outlawed slavery), West received sharp responses from the likes of Chris Evans and Lana Del Rey and apparently decided to pull the plug, per the Hollywood Reporter. The 41-year-old had already quit Twitter for almost a year, returning in April, and recently returned to Instagram after a break. Vulture wonders if he left Twitter to finally wrap up an album he had said would drop last weekend.
