Critics are calling out President Donald Trump after an awkward moment at the White House on Wednesday during a meeting with a group of African leaders.
After Liberian President Joseph Boakai spoke, Trump offered some unusual praise.
“Such good English. That’s beautiful. Where did you learn to speak so beautifully?” Trump asked. “Where were you educated? Where? In Liberia?”
Boakai replied, “Yes, sir.”
Trump said, “Well, that’s very interesting. It’s beautiful English. I have people at this table, can’t speak nearly as well.”
