Trump blamed "Fake News" for the backlash after the dinner and said he met with West to give him advice.
Trump admitted that one of the guests was a political person who he hadn't seen in a long time, apparently referring to Giorno.

Trump's team was put into damage-control mode after he hosted West and Fuentes at Mar-A-Lago. The dinner has become a nightmare for the campaign according to one long time adviser. Trump tried to downplay the meeting, saying it was quick and easy. In a Truth Social post earlier this week, Trump said that West expressed no antisemitism during the meeting. He said he appreciated all of the nice things that West said about him.
Asa Hutchinson became the latest Republican to criticize the former president. Trump needs better judgement when it comes to who he dines with, and he won't meet with West or Fuentes, according to NBC News. Hutchinson thought the dinner could be used to empower extremists. You don't want to give them strength. He told CNN to stay away from them.
In a video posted to his verified account on Thanksgiving Day, West claimed that Trump insulted his ex- wife at the Mar-A-Lago dinner. Trump told West it would be a waste of time if he ran for president. In the video, West claimed that Trump screamed at him and was really impressed with the man. According to the New York Times, an unnamed person who was at the dinner said that Trump was flattered that Fuentes preferred his impromptu speeches. Trump said that he got him.
