Trump struggles to understand foreign accents during press conference with Indian journalist

dailymail.co.uk

During a press conference at the White House, President Donald Trump told an Indian journalist he could not understand his accent. This incident follows a similar occurrence two weeks prior, when Trump struggled to comprehend a question from an Afghan reporter. In both cases, Trump acknowledged the difficulty in understanding the reporters. He previously made similar comments about a Japanese reporter in 2018, asking him to "say hello" to Japan's then-prime minister, Shinzo Abe, after failing to grasp his question. These recent events highlight a pattern where Trump has had trouble understanding foreign journalists due to their accents during press conferences.
