Trump Doesn't Know What He's President Of
Trump said he met with the President of The Virgin Islands…which would
be…himself.
Cenk Uygur, John Iadarola, and Mark Thompson, the hosts of
The Young Turks, break it down.
“Washington (CNN) resident Donald Trump accidentally referred to the
Virgin Islands' governor as their President during a speech Friday - even though he is technically their resident.
"I will tell you I left Texas and I left Florida and I left Louisiana
and I went to Puerto Rico and I met with the President of the Virgin
Islands," he told the audience of the Values Voter Summit in Washington.
"We are one nation and we all hurt together, we hope together and we
heal together," he said, later adding, "The Virgin Islands and the
President of the Virgin Islands, these are people that are incredible
people, they suffered gravely and we're be there, we're going to be
there, we have really, it is not even a question of a choice."
Trump appeared to be referring to Virgin Islands Gov. Kenneth Mapp,
instead of the "resident" who is Trump himself.
The Virgin Islands is a
US territory.
The White House did not immediately respond to CNN's request for
comment. But in the official White House transcript after the speech,
his reference to Mapp as President was corrected to "governor."
He was referring to how the Virgin Islands was hit first by Hurricane
Irma, then Hurricane Maria, which ravaged the island.”
