Kim Kardashian West met with President Trump Wednesday afternoon to discuss "prison reform and sentencing."
During the meeting, Kardashian West advocated for the release of Alice Marie Johnson, a 63-year-old woman who is serving a life sentence, without parole, for a first-time, nonviolent drug offense.
The New York Post published a cover on Thursday referring to Kardashian West's meeting with the president as "Trump meets rump" and "the other big ass summit."
The newspaper also calls the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star "Kim Thong Un," a reference to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Many online have slammed the tabloid's cover for its "sexist" tone, which they believe reduced Kardashian West's meeting with Trump to a few punchlines about her body.
People online are slamming the New York Post for publishing what they believe is a "sexist" cover mocking Kim Kardashian West's meeting with President Trump.
Wednesday afternoon, the KKW Beauty founder visited Trump at the White House to discuss "prison reform and sentencing," according to the president, who called it a "great meeting" on Twitter. Trump's tweet also included a photo of the two side-by-side at his desk in the Oval Office.

Later that night, the Post unveiled its cover for Thursday's issue on Twitter, which features the same photo of Kardashian West and Trump in the Oval Office and refers to their meeting as "Trump meets rump" and "the other big ass summit." The newspaper also calls the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star "Kim Thong Un," a reference to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

The tabloid's cover quickly divided the internet, with some praising the Post for its irreverent take.
NY Post headline writers are brilliant. From a guy who believes in snappy headlines...I bow!

But others slammed the cover for its "sexist" tone, which they believe reduced Kardashian West's meeting with Trump to a few punchlines about her body.
What a disgusting sexist headline by the New York Post. Regardless of what Kim Kardashian political affiliation is, at least she tried to do something noble, she doesn’t deserve to be disrespected. She’s a lady for Christ’s sake.

Again, this New York post cover is exactly why people don’t take women seriously. #sexist #trashy #missedthemark pic.twitter.com/eWkQGCcMFj

Be better. At least she is trying 2 use her celebrity 4 something positive. U may not like her or how she got 2 where she is but she is doing something positive now. U bash her & use her physical appearance as an insult? #Shame Here is your real headline: pic.twitter.com/ld2JlF1CO3

They’d never post this kind of headline about a man. They’d never even comment on a man’s figure, let alone one trying to do a decent thing.

According to Kardashian West, who thanked President Trump on Twitter after their meeting, the two specifically discussed the case of Alice Marie Johnson, a 63-year-old woman who is serving a life sentence, without parole, for a first-time, nonviolent drug offense she committed in the 1990s.
"It is our hope that the president will grant clemency" to Johnson, Kardashian West wrote. She continued, in a second tweet: "We are optimistic about Mrs. Johnson's future and hopeful that she — and so many like her — will get a second chance at life."
I would like to thank President Trump for his time this afternoon. It is our hope that the President will grant clemency to Ms. Alice Marie Johnson who is serving a life sentence for a first-time, non-violent drug offense.

We are optimistic about Ms. Johnson’s future and hopeful that she —and so many like her—will get a second chance at life.

Johnson's story gained national attention late last year, due largely in part to a video interview Mic conducted with the 63-year-old grandmother in October 2017. To date, a change.org petition asking President Trump to grant clemency to Johnson has been signed over 267,000 times — just shy of its goal of 300,000 supporters. 
Speaking to Business Insider Wednesday, Johnson called Kardashian West her "war angel" and said that she will "never forget" what the KKW Beauty founder is doing for her. "She has embraced my cause and taken to heart my plight," Johnson said. 
Johnson, who turned 63 on Wednesday, told Business Insider that she had been "walking around in a daze" since receiving word of Kardashian West's meeting with the president but remains "very optimistic" she will be granted clemency. 
"My family has been broken beyond what anyone can imagine," Johnson said. "A commutation would mean wholeness for me and my family again."
