Don’s ‘great’ meal with Ye and Fuentes

DONALD Trump has said he had a “great” time dining with a Holocaust denying white nationalist and rapper Kanye West days into his third campaign for the White House.

The ex-president had dinner at his Mar-a-lago club with West, now known as Ye, as well as Nick Fuentes, a far-right activist who has used his online platform to spew antisemitic and white nationalist rhetoric.

West, who says he too is running for president in 2024, also made antisemitic comments recently, leading to his suspension from social media platforms, his talent agency dropping him and Adidas cutting ties with him. White House spokesman Andrew Bates said: “Bigotry, hate, and antisemitism have absolutely no place in America – including at Mar-a-lago. Holocaust denial is repugnant and dangerous, and it must be forcefully condemned.” Trump on Friday said he had “never met and knew nothing about” Fuentes before he arrived with West at his club last Tuesday, but Trump also didn’t acknowledge Fuentes’ long history of racist remarks.

The former president wrote of the meal with West on his social media platform: “We got along great, he expressed no antisemitism.”
