Trump just played his ace card.
The media spent years covering up the targeted killings of White farmers in South Africa——because it didn’t fit their narrative.
He confronted the issue head-on beside President Ramaphosa, under the bright lights of live TV.
What happened next left the press scrambling for cover.
THREAD
You’ll want to bookmark this thread.
This could go down as one of President Trump’s most brilliant 4D chess moves.
Let’s break it all down and roll the clips.
When President Trump welcomed South African President Cyril Ramaphosa to the White House, he didn’t tiptoe around the issue that had been buried for years.
He brought it front and center: the brutal attacks against White Afrikaner farmers.
“A lot of people are very concerned with regard to South Africa,” Trump said.
He made clear this wasn’t just another diplomatic handshake.
“That’s really the purpose of the meeting. And we’ll see how that turns out.”
Trump pointed to the growing number of South African refugees already arriving in the U.S., saying:
“We have many people that feel they are being persecuted, and they are coming to the United States. We take from many locations if we feel there is persecution or genocide going on.”
Then, turning directly to Ramaphosa, he added:
“Generally, they are White farmers and they are fleeing South Africa, and it’s very sad to see, but I hope we can have an explanation of that because I know you don’t want that.”
Right on cue, the press tried to change the subject.
A reporter asked, “Can you explain to Americans why it is appropriate to welcome White Afrikaners here when other refugees like Afghans, Venezuelans, Haitians have all had their protected status revoked?”
Trump wasn’t having it.
“Well, this is a group, NBC that is truly fake news,” he said.
“They ask a lot of questions that are very pointed, where they’re not questions, they’re statements.”
Then he flipped the script: “We’ve had tremendous complaints about Africa… they say there’s a lot of bad things going on in Africa, and that’s what we are going to discuss today.”
And when it came to refugee policy? Trump dropped the hammer.
“When you say that we don’t take others, all you have to do is look at the southern border. We let 21 million people become totally unchecked, totally unvetted.”
But then came the moment no one expected.
A reporter asked, “What would it take from you to be convinced that there’s no White genocide in South Africa?”
Before Trump could answer, Ramaphosa jumped in.
He insisted the idea of a genocide was false and claimed Trump needed to talk to South Africans who knew better.
“If there was Afrikaner farmer genocide,” Ramaphosa said, “I can bet you these three gentlemen would not be here, including my minister of agriculture.”
Trump didn’t argue—he pivoted.
“We have thousands of stories talking about it. We have documentaries. We have news stories,” he said.
“I can show you a couple of things. It has to be responded to.”
Then he gave the order: “Turn the lights down and just put this on. It’s right behind you.”
On screen was Julius Malema—the genocidal leader of South Africa’s Economic Freedom Fighters party—shouting pure venom into a microphone.
“We are going to occupy land.”
“Never be scared to kill!”
“A revolution demands that at some point, there must be killing! Because the killing is part of the revolution at hand!”
“Shoot to kill!”
“Kill the Boer, the farmer!”
Ramaphosa turned to Trump. He didn’t have an answer. Because there wasn’t one.
This wasn’t a fringe voice.
Malema leads one of the largest political parties in South Africa.
His speeches aren’t isolated incidents—they’re calls to action.
His supporters echo the message: “Kill the White farmer.”
And it’s working. Attacks are increasing. Families are being driven off their land or worse.
Whether Ramaphosa admits it or not, Malema has influence—and a growing following.
Trump then played the next video.
A roadside memorial. Thousands of white crosses. Cars pulled over on both sides of the road in silent tribute.
“These are burial sites. Right here. Burial sites, over a thousand of White farmers and those cars are lined up to pay love on a Sunday morning,” Trump said.
“Each one of those white things you see is a cross… They’re all White farmers, the family of White farmers.”
“And those cars aren’t driving, they’re stopped there to pay respects to their family member who was killed.”
“It’s a terrible sight, I’ve never seen anything like it.”
Ramaphosa tried to deflect: “Have they told you where that is, Mr. President? I’d like to know where that is because this I’ve never seen.”
But it was too late. The footage was playing. The truth was undeniable.
This was the footage Trump showed.
The camera panned overhead.
Crosses as far as the eye could see. Cars lined up in silence. The scene stretched for miles.
It was devastating.
And just when the weight of it was setting in, NBC’s Peter Alexander tried to hijack the moment.
“Mr. President, the Pentagon announced it would be accepting a Qatari jet to be used as Air Force One—”
Trump snapped.
“What are you talking about?! What are you talking about?”
Even Ramaphosa motioned to the screen, still reacting to what he had seen.
Trump wasn’t done.
“You know, you oughta get out of here. What does this have to do with the Qatari jet?”
Then he lit into NBC.
“We’re talking about a lot of other things. It’s NBC trying to get off the subject of what you just saw.”
Then came the full takedown.
“You know you’re a terrible reporter. Number one, you don’t have what it takes to be a reporter. You’re not smart enough… You’re a DISGRACE. No more questions from you.”
Alexander tried to speak again.
Trump shut him down cold.
“QUIET! QUIET! QUIET!”
Trump wasn’t finished.
He held up stacks of articles for the press to see. Then read them out loud.
“These are articles over the last few days.”
“Death.”
“Death.”
“Death.”
“Horrible death.”
He flipped through story after story:
White South Africans fleeing. Families wiped out. Racist land seizures. Murder.
“White South Africans are fleeing because of the violence and racist laws,” he read.
“This is one after another. This family was wiped out.”
Then Trump drove it home.
“A correct and a fair media exposes things. But we have a very corrupt media.”
“They won’t even report this. If this were the other way around it would be the biggest story.”
He continued, “Apartheid—terrible. That was reported all the time. This is sort of the opposite of apartheid. What’s happening now is never reported. Nobody knows about it.”
“All we know is we are being inundated with people, White farmers from South Africa. It’s a big problem.”
And he wasn’t the only one alarmed.
“Marco Rubio was telling me he’s never seen anything like it. The numbers of people who want to leave South Africa because they feel they are going to be dead very soon.”
Trump forced a conversation the world had been ignoring.
And this time, the media couldn’t look away.

The term, “genocide,” has a very specific meaning.
It is violence that targets individuals because of their membership of a group and aims at the destruction of a people.
When the gov’t of So Africa refuses to “throw the book,” at people who murder white farmers and people who take the farmland, then the practices continue.
It’s called, Nipping it in the bud.”
This genocide might not be, “state sponsored,” but that is unimportant.
This genocide has been gaining steam for a while now in So Africa and the new law allowing appropriation of property without any compensation is making it worse.
The So African president had the gall to blame unemployment.
He mistakenly thought he could just show up uninvited to the White House and President Trump would shower him with lavish gifts.
Guess he learned the hard way.
Whom ever is supporting and encouraging this Violence against Whites need t o be stopped and the UN to finally do something about it or just disband
Mr. Plover
This has been UN S.O.P. for 65 years. Its why the man I voted for 9 times tried to TOTLLY DEFUND UN 8 straight years. “Most liberal man in Congress for 50 years” Gore VP debate (An accurate, honest assessment!) stymied him 8 straight years.
Reason #2 why I didnt vote for Bob!
UN supports exterminating whites!
What exactly was Ramaphosa expecting, do you think?
Don to do what GWB did many times. They do both have a “R”!
