Yiannopoulos told NBC News he was \u201cthe architect\u201d of the scheme to slip Fuentes into the dinner with Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI \u2026 wanted to send a message to Trump that he has systematically repeatedly neglected, ignored, abused<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>the people who love him the most, the people who put him in office, and that kind of behavior comes back to bite you in the end,\u201d Yiannopoulos said, adding that he arranged the dinner \u201cjust to make Trump\u2019s life miserable,\u201d knowing the former president would draw fire for the get-together.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Milo Yiannopoulos was reportedly over $2 million in debt. <\/p>\n<p>He also vowed \u201cvengeance\u201d against President Trump and called for burning the party to the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Explains why he\u2019s now leeching onto Ye. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oQpjmKr4HB\">pic.twitter.com\/oQpjmKr4HB<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Greg Price (@greg_price11) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/greg_price11\/status\/1597441550266830848?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 29, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Anti-Defamation League has described Fuentes as a \u201cwhite supremacist leader and organizer.\u201d Yiannopoulos is a onetime Breitbart editor who has claimed on Parler he \u201clost everything\u201d helping Trump get elected, but saying he was \u201cbetrayed\u201d and vowing to exact vengeance.<\/p>\n<p>After the NBC report was posted, Fuentes denied he was part of a plot to make Trump look bad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy intention was not to hurt Trump by attending the dinner, that is fake news,\u201d Fuentes <a tabindex=\"0\" href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/nickjfuentes\/9438\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">said on Telegram<\/a>. \u201cI love Donald Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Trump had agreed to meet with onetime supporter Ye, whose anti-Semitic statements in several interviews have cost him lucrative business deals and his billionaire status, according to the report. But when Ye arrived at Mar-a-Lago with Yiannopoulos, Fuentes, Karen Giorno, a member of Trump\u2019s 2016 campaign team, and a man West has described is a parent of a student that attended his now-defunct private school, the host appeared to be \u201cwalking into a trap,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n<p>During the meal, Ye reportedly criticized Trump for not doing enough to help jailed January 6 riot participants and told Trump he might run for president against him, cheekily inviting Trump to be his running mate. Although the dinner conversation reportedly left Trump angry, West immediately went about publicizing it to his 32 million Twitter followers.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrump is really impressed with Nick Fuentes,\u201d Ye said in a video posted to the platform.<\/p>\n<p>One source close to Trump told NBC said it was a stunt orchestrated to hurt Trump.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTrump was totally blindsided,\u201d the source said of Fuentes\u2019 presence. \u201cIt was a setup.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many of Trump\u2019s defenders reject the idea that he sympathizes with the views of the trio, but have nonetheless questioned how they were allowed to pull off what appeared to be a made-for-media ambush. Trump, who earlier this month announced a 2024 White House bid, has put in place new vetting procedures and gatekeeping efforts, NBC reported.<\/p>\n<p>Trump reportedly reserved his rage over the incident for West, accusing the rap and fashion mogul of betraying him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe tried to f\u2014 me.
