A former top employee of Donald Trump has recently revealed that the former president once made a “shocking” joke about “Nazi ovens” in front of Jewish executives.
Knewz.com has learned that this was only one of the many “ridiculous remarks” Trump would often make, according to the former employee.
Barbara Res was the lead engineer on the construction of the Trump Tower, the monumental 58-story, 664-foot-tall skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, New York, and has worked with Trump for around 20 years.
She penned a memoir of her days under the former president’s employment in 2020, entitled Tower of Lies: What My Eighteen Years of Working With Donald Trump Reveals About Him.
In an interview with the news outlet MSNBC on Sunday, June 23, she delved into details of her former boss’s erratic behavior, including the “Nazi oven” joke.
Res, who also served as the Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, was asked by MSNBC about the lengthy, maundering rants Trump has been seen drifting into during his campaign speeches lately.
For instance, AFP cited the example of Trump setting off on a maundering rant in Las Vegas that drifted through an array of topics ranging from “shark attacks to electric batteries to electrocutions.”
It is worth noting that, in a survey conducted by the pollster JL Partners, 61% of voters predicted that Trump would most likely “tell a rambling story” at the debate, while 54% expect his mic to be cut off.
AFP further highlighted that the 78-year-old challenger to the throne has “confused the leaders of Turkey and Hungary, warned that the world was headed for a second — not third — world war, and called fictional serial killer Hannibal Lecter a ‘wonderful man,’” over the past few months.
The former president is also known to often confuse Presiden Joe Biden with Barack Obama, per Reuters.
“Did he do this when you worked for him?” MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi asked Res, to which she replied, “A little bit,” while adding that Trump was “saner back then.”
She said that Don’s recent inappropriate jokes about Hannibal Lecter eating people reminded her of an incident:
“We had just hired a residential manager, a German guy… And Donald [Trump] was bragging among – to us executives, there were four of us – about how great the guy was and he was a real gentleman, and he was so neat and clean.”
“And he looked at a couple of our executives who happen to be Jewish, and he said, ‘Watch out for this guy – he sort of remembers the ovens,’ you know, and then smiled,” she told MSNBC.
By “ovens,” Trump seemingly referred to the fact that the Nazi regime murdered over 6 million Jewish people during the Holocaust and often burned their bodies in ovens at concentration camps.
“Everybody was shocked… I couldn’t believe he said that. But he was making a joke about the Nazi ovens and killing people, and that’s the way he was,” Res said via MSNBC.
The Guardian pointed out that one of the key points in the 2024 Presidential elections in November will be the Biden administration’s handling of the Israel-Hamass conflict in Gaza, as both Republicans and Democrats try to attract Jewish votes.
Considering the situation, Trump’s “Nazi oven” remark came to light at a very critical time for the GOP campaign, with Trump having recently argued that “Jewish Americans who vote for Democrats hate both Israel and Judaism, saying that he and his Republican party are better placed to help end the Gaza war,” per The Guardian.
Notably, Trump’s ReAwaken America event in Miami, Florida, in May saw the presence of many known conservatives who share anti-Semitic views, including Charlie Ward, a personality on Rumble who praised Hitler for “warning us” about Judaism and claimed that “VIRUSES are Man (JEW) made,” and Scott McKay, who allegedly echoes Adolf Hitler’s sentiments that Jews control the world.
