But even if there was no sarcasm, it is very weird to compliment someone whose mother tongue is English and who comes from a country where English is the official language on their knowledge of English. #POTUS47 #Liberia #Boakai

Awkward silence after #Trump praises “good English” of Liberia’s president – #video

#IdiotInChief Trump, said Joseph #Boakai, the president of #Liberia – where #English is the official language – had spoken “such good English”during a meeting with African leaders.

Boakai was advocating for US investment in his country & a joint approach to peace & security in the region. Trump asked him where he had “learned to speak so beautifully,” - what an idiot.

Awkward silence after Trump praises English of Liberian president – video

The Liberian president was asked by Trump where he had been educated

The Guardian

#Dump kehui median läsnäollessa Liberian presidentin Joseph Boakain kaunista englantia.

Itse en omaa sellaista diplomaattista itsehillintätaitoa kuin Bokai, joka jätti sanomatta, että englanti on Liberian virallinen kieli.

Miksi pitää ihmisen joutua elää näin typerää aikaa?

Trump Asks Liberian President Where He Learned English, the Country’s Official Language

English is the official language of the West African country, which was founded in part by freed American slaves.

The New York Times

#Liberia was created in #Africa by the #USA in the 1800s

Many Liberians are descendants of freed American slaves

Liberia's Declaration of Independence in 1847 charged the USA with #racism, violence, and #inequality; that it forced them to leave and create a new nation

Anyway, here's the ignorant orange turd #Trump meeting Joseph #Boakai, the President of Liberia, not knowing that English is the official language of Liberia (not knowing any history, the complete moron)
