White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest mocked Donald Trump for his pronunciation of “Tanzania” as the New Yorker used a teleprompter to outline his foreign policy today.

During the speech, Trump criticized Obama’s foreign policy failures as president and vowed a new way forward.

The White House called a press briefing before Trump’s speech was over, prompting reporters to wonder if Earnest was intentionally interrupting the conclusion of Trump’s speech.

After reporters pointed out Trump’s unusual pronunciation of Tanzania, he joked.

“Apparently the phonetics are not included on the teleprompter.”
