Trump Rants About White Genocide on Air Force One — Lashes Out at ‘Nasty’ Question

 

President Donald Trump ranted about White Genocide and lashed out at the reporter who asked a “nasty” question about his South Africa refugee policy.

Trump and Elon Musk have been pushing the absurd claim that White South African “Afrikaners” are victims of “genocide” as a way to justify accepting them as refugees while turning away other groups. Musk’s AI bot Grok has also been promoting the claim.

During a press gaggle aboard Air Force One on Friday, Trump was confronted about the policy and the exclusion of other refugee groups. The president called the question “nasty” after he insisted there really is a “genocide” and “if they were Black, I’d do the exact same thing”:

REPORTER: Sir, you’re welcoming White South Afrikaners into the country as refugees when you’ve closed off that door to a lot of other refugees from other parts of the world.

What message does that send to those who say it isn’t? Why is that fair?

PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP: Well, I think if I see people in distress, I don’t care what color, what they look like, what anything– their size, their height, their eyes. I don’t care.

But I think that, from all evidence, the farmers in South Africa are being treated brutally. And it’s been reported, and nobody wants to cover it.

But they happen to be White. And if they were Black, I’d do the exact same thing. And we treat people very well when we see there’s a genocide going on.

So if it’s a genocide, that’s terrible. And I happen to believe it could very well be. South Africa’s out of control, and it’s been out of control for a long time, and the media doesn’t report it.

And I’m not looking for reporting because, believe me, it’s easier for me not to do anything. It’s a lot easier because I don’t get nasty questions like that.

But the fact is that we’re about saving lives, and we’re gonna do that. So we’ve made a home, and we’ll make a home for other people that are treated badly, no matter what their color. Thank you.
