Trump campaign increasing screening after Nick Fuentes dinner
The Hill ^ | 11/30/202 | JULIA SHAPERO

Former President Trump’s campaign is increasing its vetting protocols following his widely criticized dinner with white nationalist Nick Fuentes, sources told The Associated Press.

A senior campaign official will be present with Trump at all times, one of the sources said.

Fuentes attended a dinner at Mar-a-Lago last week with Ye, the artist formerly known as Kanye West. Ye was set to have a private dinner with the former president, but arrived with three guests, one of whom was Fuentes, Trump has said.

Fuentes and Ye were driven to the estate by Karen Giorno, a former Trump campaign adviser from Florida, according to NBC News, which also reported screening at Mar-a-Lago will be increased. The network noted that Giorno said she used a credit card to prove her identity since she had forgotten her driver’s license and said she was waved in because she had Ye in the car and was herself a frequent visitor at Mar-a-Lago.

It’s not unusual for politicians to have minders.

Or maybe still kind of grumpy.

Still a flight risk.

Don’t know if this story is true but if is it’s not what he should do. Don’t fall for the guilt by association trap. Talk with whomever you want whenever you want. I lean on it not being true

Interesting how Democrats can meet with the likes of Epstein, Weinstein, Castro, Clinton and other criminals without ever being questioned. Trump meets with a couple of loudmouths and he gets excoriated.

I guess shooting your mouth off is worse than rape and sexual assault . . .

He should also make a commercial showing most of the demonrat party spouting off their antisemitism and push it out everywhere to the world.

Wouldn’t even bother. Unless the person is a violent criminal I don’t see why Trump shouldn’t meet with anyone he wants to.
How many politicians meet with people who hate Whites or Christians ? It’s simply not a big deal outside of the talking heads

So, it was fine that Obama sat in Rev Wright's church and held meetings in Bill Ayers house?

If people faced up to the corruption massive corruption that is going on taking their and their families’ cus constitutional birthrights away, they would look at this sideshow as nothing. The way most Americans look at soccer.

She drove them there without a driver’s license and did not protect Trump from this hysteria?

How can she still be employed?

“guess shooting your mouth off is worse than…”

You know democrats shoot their moths off. If I see Hilary, Biden or that imbecile they put into the White House I scramble to turn them off before they shoot their mouths off with hatred for this country and decency

You know it’s not about that

Well, good. Better late than never. But Trump's staffing and hires are something that continue to concern me. Trump himself was a great president but many of the people he surrounded himself with in his first term were incompetent, disloyal or both.

It does describe her as a “former” campaign advisor.

The piece also mentions three guests plus Kanye. Is that a typo? We know about Fuentes and Milo. Who is the other?
