Donald Trump’s making his first official visit to India where he’s visited the Taj Mahal before holding diplomatic talks with prime minister, Narendra Modi.

He’s also been public speaking, which is a bit of a challenge for the so-called president at the best of times. But in India, well, it’s especially so, it turns out.

I wonder how he'd pronounce my surname? https://t.co/zQBrUtJcnt
