Donald Trump’s recent moves in Mar-a-Lago have triggered a distinct uptick in criticism from his Republican colleagues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump hosted the rapper “Ye,” formerly known as Kanye West as well as white nationalist Nick Fuentes for dinner at his Florida resort last week. Ye has also faced criticism for his recent antisemitic remarks published on his social media channels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump said in a post on Truth Social that Ye brought Fuentes, who has been labeled a \u201cwhite supremacist\u201d by the Justice Department, to the dinner and claimed he did not know who Fuentes was. Fuentes has denied that the Holocaust took place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSo I help a seriously troubled man, who just happens to be black, Ye (Kanye West), who has been decimated in his business and virtually everything else,\u201d Trump wrote. \u201cAnd who has always been good to me, by allowing his request for a meeting at Mar-a-Lago, alone, so that I can give him very much needed \u2018advice.\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe shows up with 3 people, two of which I didn\u2019t know, the other a political person who I haven\u2019t seen in years,\u201d the former president added. \u201cI told him don\u2019t run for office, a total waste of time, can\u2019t win. Fake News went CRAZY!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Trump’s recent actions caused Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy to strongly rebuke the former President on Twitter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPresident Trump hosting racist antisemites for dinner encourages other racist antisemites. These attitudes are immoral and should not be entertained,\u201d Cassidy tweeted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
