Let’s put it this way: there will never be another administration in the White House quite like the Trump administration. Former US ambassador to Vietnam Ted Osius wrote in his forthcoming book, “Nothing Is Impossible: America’s Reconciliation With Vietnam” that then-President Donald Trump had asked if the Vietnamese prime minister’s name sounded like ‘fook you’ moments before he was supposed to meet him in 2017. Here’s what you need to know.
Trump asked his aides if the Vietnamese prime minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc’s name sounded like ‘fook you’ only moments before he was supposed to meet him. A senior national security official made sure to correct Trump’s pronunciation of the name before it even came out of his mouth. One said, “Nguyen Xuân Phúc. Rhymes with book.”
Donald Trump Asked If Vietnamese Prime Minister’s Name Sounded Like ‘Fook You’
Trump responded with, “You mean like Fook You?’ I knew a guy named Fook You. Really. I rented him a restaurant. When he picked up the phone, he answered “Fook You.” His business went badly. People didn’t like that. He lost the restaurant.”
Of course, it didn’t take very long for both Trump’s fans and critics to comment on the matter. Some took to social media to write, “Excuse me but aren’t ambassadors signed up to the secrecy act for their respective nations.
Regardless of which president said what, this is a breach punishable by a significant time in incarceration,” along with, “People make everything so serious and are so scare of offending someone. I think this was a rather funny comment.”
Another critic wrote, “It’s Trump!! Whether true or false, does it surprise you?”
