FILE - In this July 6, 2017, file photo, U.S. President Donald Trump, center, meets with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, right, and South Korean President Moon Jae-in before the Northeast Asia Security dinner at the U.S. Consulate General Hamburg in Germany. In August 2019, Trump angered some Asian American voters after the New York Post reported that he mocked the accents of Moon and Abe at a fundraiser in the Hamptons.
Berg, a Korean American who grew up in Fort Collins, Colorado, recalled kids doing the “stereotypical pulling at the eyes and the mocking accent.” It made her feel like she was a foreigner in her own community. Some worry the frequency of Trump’s racially offensive remarks makes them easier to shrug off, a concern that could weigh on an Asian American voting group that’s only growing in power.
A Pew Research Center survey said 53% of Asian American registered voters in 1998 identified with the Democratic Party. That figure rose to 65% in 2017. The GOP, meanwhile, remains appealing to Asian Americans who are strongly anti-communist, as many are in Vietnamese communities. Some data also suggests that a large proportion of Filipinos and wealthy, higher-educated Chinese Americans are more likely to go Republican, Masuoka said. There is no solid answer for why, but religion is one often cited reason, she added.“He’s willing to use Asian stereotypes, Asian accents in his public speeches,” Masuoka said. “In that way ...
And he will get away with it!
OK, your desire to be a notable celebrity doesn't become you..?!! Stick to just doing your job without insult please.. THE WORLD IS WATCHING..?!!
= RealFakeNews
Who believes this drivel
If someone has an accent it just means they know more than one language. And probably one more than you if you are making fun of them!
But remember, he and EVERYONE around him will go to the mat, that he is the LEAST RACIST PERSON IN THE WORLD.
You forgot Chicago, all of California, all Democrats, the Pope, etc.
My Creator, what a child.
America has a lot of apologizing too do because our leader is a...Heathen” WOW ! This man is a 🤔.....................
This is the fakest of news.
Idk whats more racist what he said or this article title....
If something Trump has said so far during the last few years had not angered you yet then nothing will
King of bull+×÷=
No he didn't. You're lying
The only thing fake is this report
Trump is still a fool..
Americans areAmericans, Asians are Asians.European are Europeans.Russians are Russians, Africans are Africans, Middle Eastern people are Middle Eastern people. There is 1 objective fact, the common denominator of the people ofALL countries, is thatALL people are part of HUMANITY
Note the word “reportedly”. Reportedly = a rumor. Since the AP is anti-Trump, take EVERYTHING they say with a grain of salt.
He’s losing his mind.
Fake News
Trump is trash
Keep it up frog mouth, your doing fine.
Given your obvious shift to the left, I can’t believe any report that doesn’t have a verifiable source and at least some shred of evidence. StopTheBias
Jesus, man. Can't we get a little break between f*ck ups? It's like a never ending barrage.
Breaking News! It isn’t their accent was mocking - it’s their race. Don’t ever forget: Racist One, Cheetoh, KFC ambassador...whatever you know him for
There is nothing weaker or more cowardly than these shrieking Social Justice Warriors. He's probably not too worried about left-wing fruitcakes. It's not his base--though it's definitely the limited mentality of the ap
You shrieking left-wing fruitcakes, remember how you rushed to the defense of nutjob aoc when she used mocked black people's speech at an event.
PaulDSmith9 Yet another thing that Republicans would have impeached Obama over.
Breaking News! Trump does something a child would do and not what a respectable leader would do.
Lol cool story bro
Oh but he isn't racist
Does the embarrassment never end! Trump is a social leper. His loser base probably thinks it’s funny.
Of course he would do that. Thankfully he hasn't smacked anyone yet. God help us when he goes to the G7.
Is it the drugs? Is he just plain stupid? I vote that he’s just plain stupid.
reportedly? there's footage. grow a pair, for fucks sake.
The fact that you charge the President with racist rhetoric is ridiculous. It’s not your job determine that, you’re the AP for crying out loud. You report, we decide.
If it was Kim Jong Un he mocked, I wonder how the narrative would change - or if it even would
I honestly believe that he does not want to be the President so he keeps doing these insane things to get himself into trouble. But, we the public keep looking the other way.
The man is a buffoon
SimianGiudice ANYBODY who supports DJT realDonaldTrump supports all he stands for: racism, bullying, misognyny, lying, megalomania, narcissm, incompetence, anti-gun control, anti-democracy, probable abuser, possible rapist, mean, conniving, untrustworthy.
Tend to think the only reason for a head of State to visit Trump is to get embarrassed. Course as the Queen of Denmark knows, you can stay home & do that too
UnavoidableForComment
I love it trump keep it up ur looking good ur hope for 2020 is fading fast keep up the good work
Any proof?
dmrider Does that mean Trump will abandon his baby-Gitmo at the border in favour of reintroducing internment camps ?
Insert eye roll here... SMFH!
Trump will have offended enough voters by 2020 that he will lose by a landslide.
Idiot alert
Lacking of class is a typical Trump move. Lacking of presidential class is typical those past years ...
Seems about right....
DumboDelusionalDonnie
He seems to go out of his way to anger every ethnicity. You name it, he will find a way to piss you off. He’s just pissed because he can’t destroy America. But dang he sure does try.
Don’t get mad. Vote.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
elvislver56 Maybe trump has a death wish?
Look at AP, journalisming all over the place. So professional!
That dude is unhinged
Everybody is offended we don't even know if this is true or not cannot trust the media to tell the truth anymore,
Oh for gawd's sake does no one have a sense of humor anymore?
Amanda Berg heard exactly what her lib friends wanted her to hear and complain about. What a surprise.
Shocker! The self proclaimed “least racist person in the world” being racist? (Waits for dipshit republicans to tell me this isn’t racist either)
madinmichigan Is this old news or did he do it again?
Left propaganda? lol they spend good money to own
MyraDSirois1 'reportedly' I listened to him. That's what he did. FixYourHeadline
What the fuck ?
I am not surprised. trump is a bully and a racist
Anonymous sources = Fake News
Ha ha. Most asian immigrants vote democrats anyway.
100% FakeNews
I would be scared to death if Trump thought I had redeeming qualities or liked me. You've got to be beyond despicable and disgusting to be seen as acceptable to him.
Like any abuser, he will isolate you from your friends.
Reportedly?
Sum ting wong wit dat?
MoronInChief absurdtrump
He just doesn't get it. And then his ignorant and/or stupid followers back him up or dismiss it because it wasn't them ... this time. He will always attack others and one of these times no matter who you are you will be one of the others.
Key word reportedly. Which most likely means didn’t happen or not the way the press is trying to sell it
This comment by the AP is an assumption and might not be an accurate account about Asian American voters.
Absolutley, Positively Fake News!!! Its not even subtle anymore.
Cheeky lol
“Sources”
Don’t expect much from our President, and he won’t disappoint you.
Trump’s remaining groups of support: Evangelicals and slow-witted white men; which is really one and the same.
Grow the fuck up. Everybody mocks everybody. The Koreans and Japanese still do blackface on national TV. They also mock white people wearing blond wigs and slurring English words to sound Umaireecan.
The ugly American DonaldTrump WhiteSupremacy WhitePrivilege
More devisive.
Not sure why people are surprise. This is who he is.
The surest sign yet that Trumps rising approval numbers with blacks and Hispanics are solid... the leftist media paying attention to the minority that they routinely ignore.
Yea but let’s forget that talib and aoc put on a “hood” accent when addressing black people, and have both made fun of southern accents.
BS
Lmao 'reportedly' who reported it? What is the source?
chicagomexecua Despicable and not surprising
He mocks everyone, get over it. 🤷♂️
KatCapps That’s what true racists like yourself do 🇷🇺RU asset tax cheater con man bastard launderer for the 🇷🇺Russian mafia 🇷🇺🐸🐘realDonaldTrump? 👇😂
Didn’t Trump also say today he is the chosen one and then insulted the Prime Minister of Denmark calling her nasty-plus then insulting all American jews-But he only had praise for the NRA and their Nazi acolytes at Pacifica HS-GOP is clearly the party of the NRA and racism in US
Is this real life or the Onion? I can’t tell anymore
I don’t understand why these foreign leaders belittle themselves and their countries by coming here to visit with him! He doesn’t care about anyone but himself! All he wants is to feel power over them!
Ap you fake news all
He will never grow up. Just an unruly, disrespectful, self-absorbed man child.
TraitorTrumpKFC If you’re not white and rich you are CRAP to Trump.
Nah
Trump is only physically an adult
FakeNews
He would mock superman with no kryptonite in his pocket. Very unwise and unbalanced. Duh.
I hope zero Asian Americans vote for the Orange Skull💀
Our embarrassment of a 'president' strikes again.
Where is the footage? Where is the Transcript? Where is the proof this happened, or is it just hearsay?
You mean that realDonaldTrump is politically incorrect? Wow! The MSM will do anything to attack Trump but, by now, most Americans know that the MSM is a branch of the DNC and will do and say anything to attack him, to no avail. TRUMP2020Landside is a sure thing!
Depends on who he mocked. Kim.. cool. Xi.... fine. Context means everything. Or if it is so called 'allies' undermining us...... ridicule is approved. Again context means all. Journalists would know this FAKE NEWS. Pretty much expected from a propaganda screed.
Reportedly, nothing is believable in this hate filled environment.
DumpTrump2020
Russia !
Everything realDonaldTrump touches implodes.
AssociatedPropaganda
Is there anybody that he doesn't insult?
Fakenews
I was beginning to wonder when he would attack Asian! It has happened!
Trump is going to take the whole GOP down with him
Fake News
such diplomacy by Trump, just a model of good manners
More fake news...
I’m sure by now they know who there dealing with...a child
This is made it up. Where’s the proof? Have you seen the video of AOC do what she thinks is a black voice? Now that’s fcking proof of racism. Call that out!
Trump has a tendency if you haven't noticed to mock and insult everybody that's not white or a dictator.
Trump making racist gestures Nah this must be fake 🤦🏾♂️
My goodness you guys sure are pushing the racist narrative... can we go back to RussiaGate ?
'Power growing' - what the flip is that racist crap?
I googled “Trump mocks accent”. Videos came up of him mocking accents of Spanish, Indian, Southern, Asian, the list is endless. I had to laugh at the one “Melania Trump’s team blasts the View for mocking her accent”. It feels good mocking others, but not when they mock his family
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Just like he mocked a disabled person right? When will you ppl stop with the bullsh*t?
He is so ignorant and disgusting.
You really aren't that bright are you.
He did it with southerners and they took it like wimps. At least the Asians have some pride.
MightyBusterBro ✳️LOOK 👀 WHITE SUPREMICISTS ⏬ Masquerading as Asian Pro-Trump Legal Immigrants. Shocking. Nadler and Schiff should call for an investigation. Notify CNN donlemon JoeBiden BetoORourke WhiteSupremacyIsAHoax
Itzzyoyo Americans have power to put this to End in 2020Election NoMoreTrump
“Reportedly.” 🤔 Sounds like fakenews. . AP trying to inflame another minority. Shame on you.
This is all bs. Amanda needs to worry about her own party. Why do the dem politicians think it's necessary to mock the way black people talk? It's ridiculous. Amanda doesn't need to worry about Trump he's doing just fine but the Democrats are destroying themselves. Lol
EVERY DAMN DAY!! 🤯🤯
More fake news
Is there video? I would love to see this unfold!
Reportedly the American Media sadly ap included will blow anything up into a race controversy.
Do we really care what he say or what he does anymore ? Pure and simple this men is crazy. Hanging in there all , only one year left and this nightmare will be over .
Let’s here the moron in chief speak one sentence of Korean or Japanese. It’s easy to mock other people’s pronunciation when you can only speak one language... barely. 🙄
Why should Asian Americans be left out?
ChosenOne
It’s like he wakes up every morning thinking 🤔 what can I do to NOT get elected again. But the GOP and his idiot supporters just like him even more the more vile and racist he gets.
I don't believe that Trump would mock anybody's accent. Ever! Just can't be true.
Asian American voters? Lough out loud
He mocked a disabled reporter. That alone should’ve been his end.
take note of how the triggered leftists come out of the shadows to make comments on this but never come by for favorable or neutral reports, and have never made a peep on anything which is more relevant or critical happening in the world. Check your older posts comments.
AP has lost any credibility they once had!
another minority voting group who should be more active in 2020 election
He's so ignorant.
Hmmm this is a clear demonstration of an irresponsible behaviour
Well if CNN oh excuse me ,I ment AP says it it must be true or maybe not, OK probably not. Maybe they’d like it if President Trump loved them long time $15 Dolla? Sorry I couldn’t resist.
ThirdBaseDan If people are voting based on rhetoric and not policy they’re doing it wrong. Regardless of political alignment.
Video or it didn’t happen
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahha. Race baiting click bait.
BS
Shocking
The time has come...
Basket of Deplorables comes to mind
Of course there is no validation.
Is there anybody left that Trump hasn’t insulted? Oh, just Putin.
So let me see, he’s attacked Jews, made fun of Asians, lied to veterans today and theoretically ended any serious Christian support after implying he’s the second coming. If he wants to lose so bad, why not just resign?
Did he mocked Andrew Yang yet?
It's like he really doesn't want to be re-elected.
he does that with 'China' also....watch him..no one says China like he does...so disrespectful why does he still take in oxygen?
Trump mocks everyone. It’s what they love about him. 🤢
Everyday!! This guy never takes a day off of being the stupidest man on earth! everyday
Glad it's recorded! Such a bully
Kinda like when AOC changes her accent depending on her audience. They're both stupid in doing that.
AP, I think you mean, “angering every decent person.”
Trump insults everyone who gives him a hard time!
trumpIsAWhiteSupremacist trumprewardsottosmurderer
And everyone soon ignored the boy who cried wolf. No one came when he screamed or bellowed because they knew the little boy always lied...
Et tu, AP? Going along with the failingNYT on the whole 'potus is a racist' scheme? You do so at the detriment of the business. stepouttathebubble
...*again?*
I see an article and the claim, 'reportedly mocked', but where is the actual proof? Why is there an article with nothing to back it up? So much of what Trump does is constantly captured on video... so where is the video of this claim? Honest question.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
