Donald Trump impersonates Asian negotiators
CNN ^ | August 26 2015 | Jeff Simon,

Posted on 08/26/2015 8:38:48 PM PDT by WilliamIII

In a speech in Iowa on Tuesday night, Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump -- who has regularly promoted his negotiating skills as a selling point for his presidency -- used broken English to briefly impersonate Asian negotiators.

"When these people walk into the room, they don't say, 'Oh hello, how's the weather? It's so beautiful outside. How are the Yankees doing? They're doing wonderful, that's great," Trump said, to some laughter from the crowd. "They say, 'We want deal!'"

Man, it’s pretty amazing how ONLY the topic of race is what they understand, eh..?

They try to cram EVERYTHING into that tiny little keyhole.

“If the only tool you have is a hammer...”

Well, you know the rest, right?

In before Trump:

steals candy from babies, causes global warming, runs traffic lights, jaywalks, overfills his gas tank, uses carpool lane with mannequins, goes bowling in street shoes, doesn’t use #2 pencil when #2 pencil is required, does crossword puzzles with ink pen, chews with his mouth open....etc. etc. etc.

They are desperate to make anything an “issue”.

Did he pull the corners of his eyes back too while saying it?

The media is a joke.

At the beginning of the day, CNN brought this up every hour and then they stopped. It probably lost traction.

I keep asking and nobody ever answers me...

How is making fun of an accent racist? What does an accent have to do with race? If I made fun of a Russian or French accent, that's no problem. But a Chinese accent? Whoa! That's hate speech!

...

Trump has done this hundreds of times, so he knows what he’s talking about. Some people can’t handle the truth.

And of course “his wife is and alien!” Compared to that Government Mule that calls herself Moochie, I’d say the White House Staff is going to like the change (unless Trump has to fire all of them because there all “Obama’s People”).

I have a bud from here in Universal Studios who went to Shanghai and spoke with Chicom officials...

That’s EXACTLY how they talk and get straight to the point. Americans are used to pleasantries first but they go straight to the jugular. No professionalism or courtesy.

I have had Asian customers, Chinese mostly, and they definitely “want deal”. They are the tough, especially the women.
