According to an individual close to the former president, he was completely surprised by the presence of Nick Fuentes at his dinner. The dinner was allegedly set up.
Trump reportedly called West crazy and referred to his potential presidential run in 2024. Trump reportedly said that West couldn’t beat him.
The incident occurred two days before Thanksgiving at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. It was one week after Trump announced his intention to run for the presidency for a third time.
Some of Trump’s aides had urged him not to meet with West, who has been criticized for making anti-semitic statements. Despite these warnings, Trump still went ahead and met with West.
According to reports, the two were supposed to meet one-on-one in the club’s library. However, Trump decided to hold court in the club’s main dining area. He wanted to show off his celebrity guest to the paying members of the club.
Milo Yiannopoulos, a right-wing provocateur, claimed that he organized the dinner for West. He told NBC that he wanted to make Trump’s life miserable.
