Donald Trump used to be referenced all the time in rap music. I find it funny, as his name has entirely new connotations now. Catalog those mentions here.
Skypager - A Tribe Called Quest

Beeper's going off like Don Trump gets checks
So Appalled - Kanye West

I'm so appalled, Spalding ball
Balding Donald Trump taking dollars from y'all
Ice Cream - Lil Wayne

I was in the trenches
Now I'm in the Trump
And everybody watch your back
When you're in the front
Rae Sremmurd too
To be fair that Kanye lyric is kind of dissing Trump. Most rap I know celebrates him usually because of his wealth and success. I think black people like trump secretly.
Raekwon - Incarcerated Scarfaces

Rae's a heavy generator
But yo, guess who's the black Trump
ODB - Protect Ya Neck II the Zoo

Given the power punch
Soon to be paid like Donald Trump

He falls in to the same category as Bill Gates. His name means moneys. Or at least it did, now it means lots of different things to different people. To me, thats the joke.
You're right though, the Kanye lyric is out of place.
