A former employee of Donald Trump has come forward with a disturbing allegation, claiming that the former president once made a joke about Nazi ovens to a group of Jewish executives.
Barbara Res, who worked in the Trump Organization from the 1980s to the 1990s and led the Trump Tower project, shared the incident with MSNBC. She recalled that Trump had hired a German residential manager and was praising him to a group of four executives, including two Jewish individuals.
According to Res, Trump said, “Watch out for this guy, he sort of remembers the ovens,” and then smiled.
“Everybody was shocked,” Res said. “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.”

Barbara Res must really be jealous of those of who got all the media attention the last wo election cycles. Get ready for the parade of former Trump employees making all sorts of claims like this the closer it gets to the election.
Ywn. When will you realize trump 2024.!!
I agree with Dana Bash. This is terrible. Cancel the debates. Trump should resign immediately.
This is all they have. This is going to keep coming. They gonna keep “finding” people from the 80’s and 90’s…
Any comment from a disgruntled ex-employees is of dubious validity for any purpose.
The quote in the article seems to suggest Trump was warning Jewish employees either that the German employee was anti-Semitic or more likely (given Trump’s social and business circles) was hyper-sensitive about the war (not a topic most Germans are anxious to discuss).
Nice try!
Oh, for crying out loud. While it is obviously a crass and tasteless joke, it’s more offensive to the German “this guy’s kind of a Nazi” than to the Jews.
What a bunch of garbage. Any news like this that comes out only right before a election is rubbish.
How shocking and surprising..I would have never thought that the guy who dines with Fuentes and Kanye. Who praised Hitler and kept Hitler speeches on his night table. Who said that people marching with neo Nazis in Charlottesville are very fine people would ever say something like this.
Is this all they got? Lolllllll, this election is gonna be so good!!
Proof??? You don’t have anything.
