Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

White supremacists, Mar-a-Lago & Jesus of Nazareth.

I trust you all had a happy Thanksgiving filled with family and laughter, and a peppercorn stuck in your front teeth the entire night. Yes, apparently no one thought to mention that detail as I happily posed for pictures with my daughter which I intended to use for this year’s Christmas card. Imagine my surprise when I noticed it after posting them on Instagram, Facebook and my business cards.

This Thanksgiving I made sure to double-check the guest list in order to make up for last year when I inadvertently invited a white supremacist. Although it did make for interesting dinner conversation, especially the “say something nice about the person next to you” game.

Last week, Trump dined at Mar-a-Lago with Kanye West (I refuse to call anyone Ye unless they’re part of the periodic table) and Nick Fuentes, one of the nation’s most prominent white supremacists and proud antisemite. Like most America First nationalists, Fuentes wants to preserve white identity and culture which naturally kicks off with a rigorous lobbying effort for an all-new season of “This is Us.” I’m sure it won’t surprise you that he’s also “Christian,” which is funny since Christ was a Middle Eastern Jewish preacher.

Trump has said that he had no idea who Fuentes was. Still he must have been positively delighted to learn that the mystery dinner guest was a total racist!

I could go on and on about Nick’s disgusting views and hate-filled rants but I’d rather talk about his surname. Fuentes. Now as far as I know, and I’m no genealogist, Fuentes is not your typical European-American name. In fact, the 24-year-old is of Mexican descent. A Mexican white supremacist. Which, if you think about it, actually makes a lot of sense given that he’s friends with Kanye, a Black white supremacist.

So for any of you who assumed that white supremacists as a group can’t be diverse, just ask the Mexican-Black white supremacist contingent. Although they are only affiliated with the group, they are still afforded some of the same privileges, like free bus fare to all university torch-wielding marches plus the latest style in flannel shirts.
