An Indian man with – shock horror! – an Indian accent asked Trump a question and the president’s response had people bellowing into next week
To the White House – we know! again! – where Donald Trump held a press conference with the Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi.
We mention it not because of any new policy announcement he had to make but because of this particular question from an Indian journalist which, it’s fair to say, didn’t go entirely to plan.
And the reason it didn’t go entirely to plan was wholly down to Trump, obviously.

Yelp.
And if you’re thinking this feels rather familiar, you’re not wrong, because this happened just a little while back. Different accent, same president.
Reporter: You have any plan to change Afghanistan’s situation? Are you able to recognize Taliban?
Trump: It’s a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is I can’t understand a word you’re saying, but. But I just say this. Good luck. Live in peace. pic.twitter.com/lWyq4fuplm

And here are just a few of the comments this latest exchange prompted.
1.
He absolutely humiliated that man for no reason, and in front of his country’s leader and anyone who was watching in India. Trump is a vile disgrace of a human being. I cannot say what I really want for Trump because I’ll get suspended again. *manywordsmissing*
