US President Donald Trump created a huge outcry on social media and offline after he referred to Haiti and African nations as “shithole countries”. As a response, people from various African nations started tweeting their achievements and triumphs, slamming the POTUS. Netizens lashed out at Trump, calling him “racist” and even lambasted him for his ignorance. However, this was not the first time Trump made a goof-up about Africa. Last year in September, he made up a fictional African nation called ‘Nambia’, which inspired Twitterati to come up with their list of fictional nations. Now, comedian and writer Sara Benincasa has a proposition for journalists. She has promised $300 (around Rs20,000) to any reporter who asks Trump about Wakanda. If you’re not sure what that is, then think of MarVel Universe and Black Panther, who is based out of there.
Benincasa called upon all ‘brave journalists’ asking them to record Trump on “Wakandan immigration”. Giving them tips to “practice a poker face”, and thanked them in advance for their “bravery.”
