    Trump takes a career intelligence analyst who is an expert in hostage policy and reduces her to a “pretty Korean lady”https://twitter.com/aterkel/status/951898142768877569 …

        “Trump fixated on her ethnicity, and went so far as to suggest that her Korean heritage should dictate her professional career path. That, simply defined, is the very textbook definition of a racist reaction.”https://www.bustle.com/p/trump-asked-why-the-pretty-korean-lady-in-a-meeting-wasnt-working-on-north-korea-report-7905192 …

        ANOTHER anonymous source with questionable context and quotes that are cobbled together. You people need mental health screening and when I say "you people" I mean the gullible, feel free to take offense.

        Yawn. The more stories like this you manufacture, this more white noise it becomes. Just try not to start diplomatic incidents with 50 other countries next time, okay?

        I think @realDonaldTrump is a Nazi. Didn't his parents come from Germany? Isn't he blonde and blue-eyed? Sounds and looks like a Nazi to me.
