Donald Trump receiving criticism from alt-right leaders after Israel, Saudi Arabia visits
U.S. President Donald Trump’s trip to the Middle East scored him points in the mainstream media, but profoundly peeved his earliest supporters, the so-called “alt-right,” who had arguably propelled him into the presidency.
That images of Trump sword-dancing with Saudis, in a gesture to the Sunni Muslim world, and worshipping at the Western Wall, in a gesture to Jews, should irk the far-right in American politics is no surprise.
Spencer also retweeted a tweet from the “Boatsinker,” which captioned Trump’s visit to the Western Wall as “Wrong wall, retard” – referring to a core issue of the alt-right’s support for Trump: his pledge to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Ann Coulter, who had recently criticized Trump for not sticking to his hard-line immigration record, tweeted,
Just before that U.S. airstrike on Syria, Trump’s old friend Roger Stone, a conspiracy theory aficionado, remarked that the various accusations surrounding Trump “all boil down to whether or not we want to go to war over Syria." Meaning, that Trump’s enemies want him out of office so they can start a war, and his supporters think he will protect them from a war-hungry establishment. Fast-forward to now: Stone tweeted that Trump’s Saudi visit made him want to “puke,” adding “#Jared’sIdea.”
