Trump Presses South African President on Violence Against White Farmers

President Donald Trump pulled no punches during a high-stakes Oval Office meeting with South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, directly confronting him over the alleged genocide of Afrikaner farmers in South Africa.

In a moment that left the South African delegation visibly uneasy, Trump played a chilling video that included footage of Julius Malema a radical member of South Africa’s parliament singing “Kill the Boer” at a political rally, an unmistakable incitement to violence against white farmers. The video also showed what Trump identified as a mass grave site of 1,000 murdered Afrikaners, a grim testament to the rising tide of racial violence.

As the footage played, Ramaphosa averted his eyes while Trump looked on intently. When asked about the gravesite, Ramaphosa admitted he had “never seen the site,” prompting Trump to hold up several news articles as further evidence. “I don’t know how it can get any worse,” Trump said somberly.

This wasn’t just a symbolic gesture. Trump backed up his position with action, signing an executive order in February that cut U.S. aid to South Africa over the country’s Expropriation Act, a law that allows the government to confiscate land without compensation disproportionately targeting white, minority-owned farms. He also fast-tracked refugee resettlement for Afrikaners, with 59 farmers arriving in the U.S. earlier this month on a chartered flight.

Here are some key facts the mainstream media won’t touch:

• Over 2,000 white South African farmers have been killed since 1994, many of them tortured in gruesome home invasions.

• The South African government, under the Expropriation Act, is empowered to seize land based on race, not justice.

• Julius Malema, the man calling for white genocide, remains unpunished and holds a seat in Parliament.

“When they take the land, they kill the white farmer, and when they kill the white farmer, nothing happens to them,” Trump told Ramaphosa, laying bare the reality. In response, Ramaphosa weakly claimed that black South Africans are also victims of crime a deflection that ignored the racial and political motivation behind these attacks.

Trump didn’t back down. “The farmers are not black,” he replied. “Their heads chopped off. They died violently.” He stressed that this is not random crime it’s systemic violence targeting an ethnic minority.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio echoed this reality during a heated Senate hearing, stating “These are people whose farms were burned down and they were killed because of the color of their skin.” Rubio further slammed Democrat Senator Tim Kaine for denying the persecution, adding, “This is racial land theft. That’s a fact.”

Despite the evidence, left-wing politicians continue to downplay or outright deny the targeting of Afrikaners. Their silence or worse, their opposition to helping these families speaks volumes.

Trump's message was clear America will not turn a blind eye to racial violence just because the victims are white. Unlike the Biden administration, which has consistently ignored this issue, Trump is confronting it head-on.
