I don't understand this response to Donald Trump's dinner with Kanye West and Nick Fuentes at Mar-a-Lago:
... two Trump advisers winced at how a Holocaust denier like Fuentes was able to wind up with Trump at dinner — even if it was by mistake — along with the rapper....
"This is a f---ing nightmare," said one longtime Trump adviser who spoke on condition of anonymity for fear of stoking the former president's ire at "disloyal" people who criticize him. "If people are looking at [Florida Gov. Ron] DeSantis to run against Trump, here's another reason why."
Robert Costa of CBS News is right:
In fact, as @axios notes, months after appearing with Fuentes, “Greene… is one of the most influential Republicans in the House” and a key player in keeping Trump base close to the House GOP leadership. https://t.co/u9EmDZPyEB
“This past week, Kanye West called me to have dinner at Mar-a-Lago. Shortly thereafter, he unexpectedly showed up with three of his friends, whom I knew nothing about,” Trump said Friday in a statement on his Truth Social platform.
“We had dinner on Tuesday evening with many members present on the back patio. The dinner was quick and uneventful,” Trump said. “They then left for the airport.”
A person familiar with the dinner conversation who is not involved in Trump's presidential campaign and two Trump advisers briefed on the dinner corroborated Trump's claim that he didn't know Fuentes' identity when they dined together.
The anti-Semites believe that the powers that be compel even Trump to discredit people like Fuentes, so they accept Trump's distancing as a necessary concession while they exult in the fact that the meeting took place at all. They also take comfort in reports that Trump and Fuentes "fawned over each other," and that Trump was "very taken" with Fuentes. So Trump connects with the anti-Semites while not alienating other right-wingers. Also, he's in the spotlight for days -- take that, Ron DeSantis!
And on that subject:
What’s fucked up is, people like DeSantis and other Republicans running for president won’t use Trump canoodling with Nick Fuentes as a line of attack because Republicans have decided they need the votes of Nazis and Nazi sympathizers.
The right-wing media's response to this story has been fascinating. I don't know what's happened on cable, but FoxNews.com hasn't covered the story at all. There's litrally nothing about the dinner on the site. Rupert Murdoch loathes Trump, so you think he might want to portray him as a loathsome anti-Semite, but he appears to be afraid that he might make Trump seem like a sympathetic victim of cancel culture.
On the other hand, Breitbart, which usually refreshes its front page every couple of hours, has made this the top story since yesterday, with a highly critical headline:
These latest revelations turn what could have been a minor story into a major national narrative, where the GOP frontrunner for president in 2024 — the former president and as of now the only formal GOP candidate for the office in the next election — seems to have met with an open white nationalist, antisemite, and Holocaust denier in Fuentes. Fuentes’ now-shut-down YouTube page is shot-through with racist and antisemitic rants that date as far back as 2014.
But the commenters are overwhelmingly on Trump's side, for a variety of reasons:
why is this top story on bb? are the rinos and nevertrumpers taking over here too?
****
Breitbart is garbage. Find a new news source
****
Notice how BB will never run a similar headline on the deaths of millions of Russian and Ukrainian Christians under Bolshevism.
Or would that be 'anti-semitic'?
****
Why is Breitbart turning on Trump because he likes to have dinner with Kanye West?? Give me a break who cares who he eats with, he will talk to anyone. He even sat across and talked to the Taliban and Rocketman Kim and protected our Country. Trump is a GREAT President and I support him no matter what he's the best man for the Job!! TRUMP 2024!!
****
No idea who that (Nick Fuentes) is but by his last name he is hispanic not white. Being white is NOT a crime. A 'nationalist' is someone who loves their country above all others. And why is there so much censorship and pushing of left-wing narratives here now?!
****
Notice how BB didn't actually tell us what Fuentes said - or why he is a 'white supremacist'. To trash him outright, without an objective measured analysis, well it smacks of outright propaganda. Thou shalt hate anything pro-White and never ever question the establishment's version of WWII history.
We are meant to jump pavlovian-style to their dogwhistle.
****
"America’s military is stationed in Middle East to defend Israel while our borders go undefended". At the same time while we give it endless aid!
Maybe that's one reason so much censorship is needed.
****
Current leftist and POC seem to want segregation again but this time from whites. Separate dorms, separate graduations, No whites allowed etc. but let whitey say it, then the sky is falling. Pretty much like everything else. The leftist POC can say whatever they please about whites, its a one way street when it come to outrage.
****
They were NATIONALISTS. That's the real threat to the Godless Communist Totalitarian Police State being rolled out.
****
THERE ARE GOOD JEWs AND BAD ONES ,
WHAT I FIND INTERESTING IS THAT THE BAD ONES ARE ALWAYS DEMOCRATS .
****
> 80% of Jews vote Communist-Democrat
> The other 20% vote in favor of neocon wars which means sending Americans off to die in desert wars for Israel.
In turn, the ENTIRE Jewish community unites to have America take in the Muslim migrants conveniently removed from Israel's surroundings in these wars.
Communism/Zionism = the two ideologies of Jews. Prove me wrong.
****
Pathetic attempts to paint Trump as an antisemite won’t work, but I do agree it is shameful for BB to try to do so. Those of us with a brain know very well Trump is not antisemitic. This is not only evidenced by his actions while in office, but also in his personal life. Most Israelis will declare that president Trump was the best friend Israel ever had in the White House. He’s human. He makes mistakes. One of those was a forced error, Fuentes at his dinner table. He does need to acknowledge the error, but since apologies don’t come naturally to him we may not see that. That’s a pity, but we should not use this to “prove” that Trump hates Jews. As to those who question whether Fuentes is in fact an antisemite, I recommend that they do a little homework rather than automatically assume he is not simply because BB says he is. He is indeed a Holocaust denier and antisemite.
****
Trump says he doesn't know the guy AND that Kanye didn't announce he was bringing anyone else. Nice try though.
****
And even if he does know him, so what. America was founded and settled BY Whites.
Yet now being pro-White is supposedly the most evil thing in America. What the f.
This is how America has been subverted from within by those who control the media.
****
This debacle is On KANYE. It's his bullsh!t and I'm not a fan of this idiocracy. Ye is massively confused for doing this. Keep him away from Trump.
****
Yeah, it sounds like a setup to smear Trump.
The real story here is West hangs with idiots. He's a wannabe
****
I couldn't help but notice that absolutely no one in the FakeNews "media" cares that pro-segregation lobbyist Joe Biden was life long friend with the white supremist leader of the KKK and longest serving democrap senator.
****
All this time, and lots of curiosity over the years, and I have yet to meet an actual 'White Supremacist'.
All I run across are people who just want to be left alone, to pursue their own destiny, without being meddled with.
****
Supremacy is wanting to rule over others.
Wanting to be left alone is the opposite of supremacy. It’s not supremacy to want to live in peace and harmony among your own kind.
Is it supremacy for Thai to live among Thai? Or Blax to live among Blax? Or Jews to live among Jews? But somehow it’s supremacy for Whites to want to live among Whites.
If anything is ‘supremacy’ it’s the non-whites who are aggressively conquering White lands and replacing whites while culturally appropriating our institutions, and traditions and language, and way of life - our very civilization.
Some commenters criticize Trump, but they're in the minority. Most believe that Trump was wronged or that he did nothing wrong, either because he's a great man who'll meets with anybody or because he should be meeting with people who love the white race.
This dinner didn't lose Trump a single Republican primary vote -- in fact, it might have won him a few.
