Trumps UN Ambassador Just Fell For A Humiliating Prank By Russian Comedians Live On Air

Trump only hires the best people .... .... that he can get to fake work ....
http://washingtonpress.com/2017/12/28/trumps-un-ambassador-just-fell-humiliating-prank-russian-comedians-live-air/


Trump’s Ambassador to the United Nations just got pranked by a pair of Russian comedians who got her to declare that Putin “absolutely” interfered in the elections of a fictitious South China Sea island country (listen below).

UN Ambassador Nikki Haley told comedians Vovan and Lexus – whose real names are Alexei Stolyarov and Vladimir Kuznetsov – that without further evidence, she believed Russia interfered in elections on the other side of the world, while her party continues to deny Putin’s obvious attack on American democracy.

Eleven minutes into their twenty-two-minute chat, the prankster asked Haley about “Binomo,” a non-extant island near Vietnam, which he claimed had declared independence and held elections recently. Nikki Haley’s response shows just how blatantly the former Republican Governor of South Carolina is faking it in her new job as an international diplomat:

“You know Binomo?” the man said, to which Haley replied “yes, yes.”

“They had elections and we suppose Russians had its intervention,” the man said.

“Yes, of course they did, absolutely,” Haley replies. “We’ve been watching that very closely, and I think we will continue to watch that as we deal with the issues that keep coming up about the South China Sea.”

The prankster even spelled out B-I-N-O-M-O to make certain Ambassador Haley understood the name despite his accent. .............

not long ago bullying the world about Israel and the US Embassy. It was shameful. She absolutely deserved to be taken down a notch. I applaud the pranksters.

She also obviously needs better vetting and gatekeeping for incoming calls.
