Here are some things the president of the United States said to some children on Friday because their parents, members of the press, brought them to the White House:
“She is Japanese? Beautiful. She is Japane—I’m gonna be in Japan in two weeks. I’ll be in Japan.”
“You have no weight problems. That’s the good news, right?”
“You gonna grow up to be like your parents? Mmmm... don’t answer.”
“They can stay. The parents? Maybe not so much.”
Maybe not so much.
