Especially Nigeria, yeah a few taxi drivers, but a lot in the medical professions. We get a lot of their best people.

There aren't many Nigerians in the US, but the ones that are here are among the most educated ones, so they are definitely not trash like some people here might think. A lot of them are well educated, successful and live in good neighborhoods.

Although, there are also a few trying to sell you a fake Rolex in Times Square. LOL

I have no illusion about their knowledge about Europe/world. But I don't know why are you surprised by that claiming because most WE people would be able to say about Slovenia the same thing.

Still the core of the problem is somewhere else - politicians (no need to mention the US president) shouldn't use expressions of internet haters/fighters, etc. for any country in the world.

Holy shit I remember that lol. Wasn't it that Chechen kid that tried to blow up a race in Boston? Funniest thing was that Americans said he was from the "Check" Republic.

"Check" Republic is quite irrelevant for an average American. The only two European countries located east of Germany that every American knows about, are Russia and Poland. Most of them never heard of Slovenia or Czechia.

Why does he have to pull down another country to that level. He should use facts to express his thoughts.
