Trump, clearly impressed, inquired where Boakai got his language skills.
“Such good English, such beautiful …” Trump said. “Where did you learn to speak so beautifully? Where were you educated?”
Boakai seemed to chuckle. English is the official language of Liberia.
“In Liberia?” Trump asked. “Yes sir,” Boakai said.
“That’s very interesting, that’s beautiful English” Trump said. “I have people at this table who can’t speak nearly as well .”
Liberia was founded in 1822 as a colony for free Black Americans, the brainchild of white Americans trying to address what they saw as a problem – the future for Black people in the US once slavery ended. English is Liberia’s official language, though multiple Indigenous languages are spoken there as well.
so….why should we be appalled?
multiple languages are spoken there. It’s OK to be impressed with someone who speaks English.

Apparently, we’re supposed to be losers with nothing better to do than scour the internet all day everyday for something to scoff at Trump for.
I had no idea I was so behind the times. Here I was having a whole life instead.

But you are supposed to be appalled at Trump because he complimented a foreigner on their English

You know who else’s official language is English?
Jamaica.
Their English is nothing like American English, much like Liberian English.

What’s the issue? Trump just probably assumed he spoke African.

Except there is no language called “African”. Thanks for another gratuitous statement.

No doubt.
Can you imagine waking up each day so filled with hatred that you go looking for stuff to hate on someone about?
Sad.
And a little pathetic.

More pathetic than sad.
They are behaving like petulant little bratty children.

If ONLY I had the time, I surely would…
Instead, I have to wake up every morning to kisses and hot coffee from my wife. If I don’t get up immediately, she’ll start rubbing my back. The nerve, right?!?
And when I do finally get up, as so rudely forced to, I have to put up with three wonderful children doing awful things, like hugging me and telling me they love me, first thing in the freakin’ morning!
And what happens after a hard day of working to provide comforts and entertainment for my grateful-ass family? The turds make me dinner!
If ONLY I had the time…

Shook hands with air and would just wander off in this direction or that.
Is that what the thread is about? Complimenting their English?
I have the OP on ignore so didn’t know.
I knew he was confused about the idiot though from the title.

Poor Guy.
I don’t know how much longer I can take it… maybe another 80 or 90 years, tops!
