Trump faulted for dinner with white nationalist, rapper YeNEW YORK (AP) — Former President Donald Trump is renewing attention to his long history of turning a blind eye to bigotry after dining with a Holocaust-denying white nationalist and the rapper formerly known as Kanye West just days into his third campaign for the White House. Trump had dinner Tuesday at his Mar-a-Lago club with West, who is 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. But Trump also did not acknowledge Fuentes' long history of racist and antisemitic remarks, nor did he denounce either man’s defamatory statements. But the club — and the people it gave access to Trump — had long been a source of consternation among former White House aides. I mean, has that ever worked for anyone in history, telling Ye that I’m going to lose?” Ye asked in the video.
