No. It's worse than that. It was set up by Americans for freed slaves. Quite literally took our system of government and copied it. Tried to a US territory or protectorate. It was wholly ran by descendants of freed slaves until 1980. He has no clue about f'all

America has rolled over and died after disembowelling itself with a sharp orange prick. There's no doubt now that China is the next technological and scientific superpower, and the world will pivot accordingly towards Beijing.

Trump is not the main problem. The 77 million base voters is the problem. The dead-letter-literal-interpretation of the Bible evangelical white nationalists is the problem. The anti-abortion anti-gay anti-immigration etc., is the problem. Jim Crow 2.0 voting laws is the problem Anti-science problem.

Liberia was LITERALLY an American colony. Black people who escaped or were freed from slavery were sent to Liberia to settle. It's called Liberia for *liberty,* because they were former slaves. Then they declared their independence, because of course they did. What the fuck, Donald.

The stupid dipshit does not know Liberia’s official language is English ! 😆 Post the 1822 and the 1861 civil war, free African- Americans resettled in Africa called it Liberia hoping for better freedom and prosperity than then US… He continues to embarrass… with his big mouth and little mind.

And not only the official language, many freed and slave Africans returned to Liberia after the Civil War. But of course that would mean someone in the administration would know history. :(

We are an embarrassed on a global stage. We have a complete imbecile and heading our country, creating concentration camp and letting the ignorant run wild with the racism.

Let's not pretend this is about knowledge of foreign countries. (I didn't know the national language of Liberia either.) Trump is expressing his shock that an African black man can speak intelligently. He was expecting Boakai to talk like the slaves on "Roots."

Not only is Trump a fraud, a felon, a grifter, an adjudicated rapist, a pedophile, and a fascist, he is also unbelievably ignorant and stupid! On top of all that, he has dementia, messes his pants, and babbles like a fool! This is the ideal for the MAGA cult that calls him "The Chosen One". Insane.

Has to be 100% the dumbest president and the most incompetent cabinet in American History. The US is in a very vulnerable position economically & emotionally. It’s no longer a free country, say the wrong thing against the gov. and fear being arrested. Gov. hired mercenaries ICE roaming the streets.
