- “To my friend Donald Trump, you are better than this,” David Friedman, who served as Trump’s U.S. ambassador to Israel from 2017-2021, tweeted Friday. “Even a social visit from an antisemite like Kanye West and human scum like Nick Fuentes is unacceptable.”
- Friedman also said: “I condemned Barak Obama associating with Louis Farrakhan and Jeremiah Wright,” Friedman added. “This is no different. Antisemites deserve no quarter among American leaders, right or left.”
