@SimthembileMab3 commented:

"We thank you for your courage 🙏 Hope more refugees will join you soon as expected."

"Thank you, share some of your accent with them🙏🏿"

@Motiv88r said:

"This is definitely not a South African accent - it sounds more western than local. Maybe you lived in Australia and jumped on this opportunity to eventually go to your desired country on this ticket of #Afriforum. I foresee this offer being taken by those who already left SA

@Lynette_SA argued:

"Andrea you need to get yourself properly informed. You can’t be making videos like this so confidently in your ignorance. It’s embarrassing!"

@ChicagoBoy2023 shared:

"I am an Afrikaner living in the United States. I moved here 15 years ago. I think you come from a good place, but we are the world’s black sheep and it will always be that way. What Trump is doing will just create more backlash for us, both here and at home… :-/"

@KC593A wrote:

"As a guy who spends a great deal of time in South Africa, I am genuinely excited about this. The overwhelming number of white South Africans I have come in contact with over the past 25 years are great people who are the types of immigrants we need."

SAns blast Trump for wanting to set refugee centres in SA

According to The South African, the New York Times reported that the US has launched an initiative called Mission South Africa, which is part of its mission to resettle Afrikaners in the United States.

Trump signed an Executive Order on 7 February 2025 offering Afrikaners refugee status. He accused the South African government of using the Expropriation Act to force Afrikaner farmers off their land.
