New book highlights Trump’s ignorance of history, geography


New book highlights Trump’s ignorance of history, geography 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Agence France-PresseUS President Donald Trump’s shaky grasp of geography includes not knowing that India shares a border with China, according to a new book by a pair of reporters for The Washington Post. The book, “A Very Stable Genius” by Philip Rucker and Carol Leonnig, highlights episodes of volatile behavior by the president along with his ignorance of basic geography and history. “It’s not like you’ve got China on your border,” the authors quoted Trump as telling Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a meeting between the two leaders. India and China share a border and the two countries went to war in 1962 over a disputed Himalayan section of the frontier.
