Kanye West claims he ‘ran’ Pete Davidson off Instagram

Kanye West is claiming a small victory in his one-sided Pete Davidson feud after the “SNL” star deleted his Instagram days after rejoining.

“Ran Skete off the gram,” West, 44, boasted Thursday afternoon on his own Instagram account. “Tell your mother I changed your name for life.”

Davidson, 28, appeared to delete his most recent Instagram page on Wednesday shortly after sharing a clip of fictional comedian Rupert Pupkin reciting his famous quote, “Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime,” which many took to be a dig at West.

West has been going after Davidson — whom he refers to as “Skete” — on social media for weeks in a bizarre attempt to win back estranged wife Kim Kardashian.

He previously referred to the Staten Island native as a “d–khead” and shared private messages allegedly from Kardashian worried about her boyfriend’s safety.

Kardashian, 41, has since unfollowed her soon-to-be ex-husband.

“U are creating a dangerous and scary environment and someone will hurt Pete and this will all be your fault,” Kardashian allegedly wrote to West amid his attacks, resulting in Ye telling fans, “UPON MY WIFE’S REQUEST PLEASE NOBODY DO ANYTHING PHYSICAL TO SKETE IM GOING TO HANDLE THE SITUATION MYSELF.”

The exes are still at odds over their divorce, with West recently objecting to several of Kardashian’s demands, resulting in the Skims founder begging a judge to sign off on the split due to West allegedly causing “emotional distress.”
