Yep, they should just start lying to Trump about all this. Every new infrastructure project will be the “Trump Big Hole In The Ground”, every new spending bill will be the “Trump gives money to Crackheads” project, every new military weapons system will be the “Trump Big Boomy Thing”. Fuck it, names can be erased later, and maybe this will distract him enough that he doesn’t notice he’s accidentally doing something good for America.
“Tshisekedi” is quite trivial to pronounce, even in my very British accent. I guess it helps that I live in South Africa, so I have absorbed local accents.
Trump is just a twit who is too proud to call in a junior functionary of the South African Embassy to give him a roughly 2 minute training in a single word.
I guess he could also ask the Congolese, the Zambians, the Angolans, the Zimbabweans, the Mozambiquans. We all pronounce the word the same.
To be honest, given the large Nigerian population in South Africa, of both legal and questionable legality, in my experience they speak better English than Trump.
I have on occasion attempted to talk in French, which is for both of us a third language, but often my own French that falters.
Well, the racist Obama video has now been taken down, and the whole unfortunate incident, which was initially vigorously defended by Trump’s communication team, has been blamed on some unnamed underling. Why, Donald Trump would never post such a thing!
That white house press secretary, Leavitt, can spin anything. The video was up for 12 hours, yet posted by a staffer. And it was all just trump as the lion king.
Next time blame the racist/inciting post on a “democrat hacker”. That she can back trump is despicable.
That fucker is still - and will never stop - arguing the 2020 election. And why he constantly takes it out on Obama I have no clue.
“Some republicans” were against it. Fuck all of them.
