A female reporter from Afghanistan was dismissed by President Donald Trump during a press conference alongside Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday night. The interaction came as Trump was taking questions from reporters after announcing the U.S. would “take over” Gaza. “You have any plan to change Afghanistan’s situation? Are you able to recognize Taliban, because, I’m an Afghan journalist...” the woman says, continuing to question Trump on his plans for the Afghan people. “I’m having a little hard time understanding you,” Trump replied. “Where are you from?” The woman responds she is from Afghanistan. “It’s a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is I can’t understand a word you’re saying. But, but I just say this,” Trump continued, “Good luck, live in peace.” The woman attempted to grab the mic and ask another question in response, but it was too late. Trump had already moved on.
