Which farmers?: Cabinet rubbishes claims of 72,000 South African farmers seeking US refugee status

Government has dismissed, with contempt, widespread claims of more than 70,000 commercial farmers having applied to take up US President Donald Trump for Afrikaners to relocate to United States as refugees.

Earlier this month, IOL reported that the South African Chamber of Commerce in the USA (SACCUSA) insisted it had received overwhelming interest from Afrikaner farmers seeking to take up the refugee offer extended by Trump. At the time, SACCUSA officials claimed they had arrived in South Africa from US, and handed over the list of more than 70,000 South Africans to the embassy of the United States in Pretoria.
 
On Thursday, Minister in the Presidency, Khumbudzo Ntshavheni addressed a post-Cabinet media briefing, where she told journalists that the claims are incorrect.

"Cabinet is also aware of the false claim that there are approximately 72,000 white farmers who have signed up to relocate to the USA in response to the invitation by the US President.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Now that's a big deal, only 41,000 instead of 72,000.  Be that as it may, aren't democrats going to wildly praise Trump for wanting to bring immigrants in - LEGALLY?

This was a trial balloon floated by black South African politicians want to make Afrikaners persona-non-grata and dispossess them, like they did in Zimbabwe.

If Afrikaan farmers want to leave, they'd have more luck emigrating to another British Commonwealth Dominion like Canada, Australia, New Zealand, etc.  South America is also another option.

Elon Musk is 1/2 Afrikaner.  His father is South African and his mother is Canadian.
