Trump Congratulates Leader of English-Speaking Country for His Good English
Trump Congratulates Leader of English-Speaking Country for His Good English
The meeting was held to foster economic opportunities in Africa.
Donald Trump has praised the president of Liberia for speaking “such good English,” seemingly unaware that Liberia’s official language is, in fact, English.
I would like to Return the compliment, but I can‘t.
I was really hoping for him to be talking with someone in the UK or something
Depending on the region, that might have validated him... /s
They're "so well spoken". That's what makes them "one of the good ones".
If this turdsack actually makes it to Thanksgiving he's gonna go full racist while pardoning the turkey.
It's a farmed turkey, it's mostly white meat.
A lot of slightly smarter Americans wouldn't have taken the risk of such a remark, despite remaining oblivious to the mere existence of Liberia.
I despise Trump more than most but this article is silly. Only about half of Liberians speak English, and less than 2% speak it as their first language. It's the official language because there are 31 different languages spoken in the country and they need something to be lingua franca so why not make it English for added international appeal. India is similar
Presumably the leader of a country would be able to speak its official language, like how so many Canadian PMs speak both French and English
And even then, a better person wouldn't inject narcissism into their stupidity
It's going to be a long 50 years. You think it's fun now, just imagine when Junior is on the throne.
They read a lot of books in Libraryia. Many such books. Everybody says so.
Yuuuuuge books, the biggest books anyone has ever seen
Inb4 it's a dictionary
"So many books. I can't believe how many books they had. There were books everywhere in this building."
Well, no one could say that to him
It's such a trump thing to do
this is not trump being oblivious, this is trump being blatantly racist
He's lived in a bubble his entire life. for 60 years he lived in an aristocrat's bubble. and since he was in his mid to late 60s, he's lived in one where he's treated like a living god. He was raised by affluent , arrogant, racist and supremacist bastards, and that will never leave him.
remember a few weeks ago , if that. he had a fruedian slip and dropped an antisemetic remark when he was trying to talk about scammers or something?
Not both?
He's (probably accidentally) correct in this case, Joseph Boakai's first language is Kissi
See? This is that shit i was talking about when he first ran when i was still in high school. Dude is so fucking oblivious.
I’m sorry you’re growing up with this nonsense.
My theory is that a general lack of empathy caused his racist mindset combined with his his perceived superiority caused by his political power results in him not giving a fuck.
You're neglecting a whole side dish of stupidity.
I’m more interested in why the nation thought that voting for a man who is (at least) politically retarded would have been a great thing in any way, shape or form. Like no one would hire someone who has never touched a computer in their life as CTO of some company; but we would vote Donald trump into one of the most powerful positions in the nation with no real credentials, experience or education in law and governance at all. Baffles me.
If that wasn't cringe enough, here's what the article concludes with:
“I could do this all day,” Trump mused as the leaders took it in turns to flatter him.
I want him to say that to Starmer
"Thank you Mister President."
"Yunno, your king speaks good English too, I see a lot of people here speaking good English."
"Again, thank you Mister President."
That's what an educated person sounds like Donald.
Probably speaks better than him tbh. How long until he tries to rename English to American?
I genuinely thought it meant Trump was speaking up his own good English.
Nice
I could have guessed Liberia, but I remember being genuinely surprised when I first discovered that Belize spoke English. I'd have expected Spanish, given the geography.
Until 1973, Belize was called British Honduras, that makes it less surprising.
Oh gods what did we do to make them anglophones? Belize, I know what we did to Liberia
tRump sucks.
Probably negotiating the minting more DJT Caesar commemorative proofs. Act now and you can get a SECOND DJT CAESAR commemorative proof free. ~(additional shipping and handling charges will apply).~
