        Don't worry. The Chinese Government already know everything there is to know about Mr Hunt's wife and her family in China. Everything.

        Um... Awkward. But seriously, how can someone marry someone who is Chinese and not know the difference enough to make a mistake like this? #fakemarriage ?

        Shortly after POTUS45's Nuclear Elk's Lodge press oppo with DPRK Great Leader, some gross people in DC staged a birthday party for the momentary POTUS, at which there was an event such that this entire remark by the diplomat seems really a lot of gross.

        Will he say he has a ‘Chinese wife’ but she’s actually Japanese when he visits Japan?
