'Focus on America!' MAGA fans rebel against Trump over his new South Africa plan


Donald Trump on Sunday vowed to "act" on a purported situation in South Africa, the home country of "first Buddy" and richest man in the world Elon Musk, and some of his closest supporters pushed back.

Trump over the weekend took to Truth Social to complain about Democratic lawmakers who he says have been delaying his nominees.

After that, he mentioned an issue that some on the far-right have long complained about.

"South Africa is confiscating land, and treating certain classes of people VERY BADLY. It is a bad situation that the Radical Left Media doesn’t want to so much as mention," the President said. "A massive Human Rights VIOLATION, at a minimum, is happening for all to see."

He added, "The United States won’t stand for it, we will act. Also, I will be cutting off all future funding to South Africa until a full investigation of this situation has been completed!"

A user identified as Jeri, who frequently posts pro-Trump material on Truth Social, said, "Why does the USA have to be involved in all these countries focus on America First !
