PRESIDENT Donald Trump showed a bizarre video to South Africa’s leader as he insisted his country’s government is allowing a “genocide” to take place on white farmers.

The president dimmed the lights and shushed President Cyril Ramaphosa as he displayed a controversial clip of a rally where South Africans chanted a song appearing to call for violence.

Trump hosted Ramaphosa at the White House on Wednesday to confront him about claims that South Africa’s Black-led government isn’t punishing people who kill white people.

South Africa has strongly denied all of the allegations, and Ramphosa asked for the meeting to fix the relationship between the US and South Africa.

The chat started off friendly as Trump complimented the South African golfers that Ramaphosa brought to the Oval Office.

Then, Trump played a video that he said showed evidence of a genocide of white farmers in South Africa.

The video showed a rally from last year where attendees chanted “Kill the Boer, the farmer,” which is an inflammatory anti-apartheid song.

Ramaphosa tried to speak to Trump while the clip started to play, but Trump pointed at the video, telling him to pay attention.

After the video ended, Trump showed printouts of articles that he claimed showed evidence of the alleged genocide.

“Death, death, death,” the president said as he flipped through the pages.
