President Trump bungled basic geography on Wednesday, confusing South Africa with South America during a rant about communism.
The 79-year-old president said he sympathized with the citizens of Miami for having to take in so many migrants fleeing the “communist tyranny” of “South Africa.”
“For generations, Miami has been a haven for those fleeing communist tyranny in South Africa,” said Trump at the American Business Forum in Miami. “If you take a look at what is going on in parts of South Africa. Look at what is going on in South Africa. Look at South America, what’s going on. We have a G20 meeting in South Africa. South Africa shouldn’t even be in the Gs anymore.”
