PRETORIA, South Africa — Some white South Africans showed support for President Donald Trump on Saturday and gathered at the U.S. Embassy in Pretoria to claim they are victims of racism by their own government.

US President Donald Trump signed an executive order Friday aimed at freezing assistance to South Africa over a controversial law which allows the government to seize farmland from ethnic minorities - namely White farmers - without compensation,

At the same time he’s slamming doors on refugees from “shithole countries,” Trump is offering asylum to a foreign white-identity group.

Hundreds of white South Africans gathered at the US embassy in Pretoria on Saturday to support Donald Trump, and protest at what they claim is racism by their own government.

The so-called land question has been a decades-long dilemma for South Africa. A new law seeks to right some of the wrongs of apartheid but has prompted claims from critics that it discriminates against White farmers.

About a thousand people gather outside the US embassy in Pretoria to show support for President Donald Trump after he hit out at the "injust" treatment of white South Africans.
