Literally everyone pretending to be offended by this also bends over backwards on a weekly basis to pretend whatever bullshit Trump was fine.
Is true that English is her third language? That would explain a lot to me...
It's possible but it would be a bit of a misnomer as it implies she's not fluent in the language or that she didn't grow up dual-language. From what I understand that while she was raised in a Somali family that spoke primarily Somali and related (they did live in Somalia after all), her parents both spoke English to some level and she was certainly fluent enough in English by the time she was a teenager that the immigration services did not even note any language issues for the family to come over. Even when accepting refugees they usually note where this could be a hindrance to their resettlement. But she spoke English just fine apparently.
It's also worth noting that at a young age she served as a translator for her grandfather who didn't know English. Children who serve as family translators like that often score very highly even if the language is not a predominant one and show good potential in all languages. I'd have to read more about her background obviously but I'm not, from this cursory glance, seeing anything that indicates she should be having any English issues. (Personally, I certainly don't
hear any listening to her.)
Of course, as already noted, this instance isn't a language barrier issue, nor were her earlier ones, this is a somebody did something to chop out the context issue.
