Donald Trump is an American businessman and politician associated with the Republican Party. He served as the 45th president of the United States from 2017 to 2021. His tenure as president was known for his war of words with North Korea, a trade war with China, and his claims to build a wall to stop immigration from the south.
He is the first president to be impeached twice and one of the very few to not get a second term in office. Trump started his career by joining the family business and rose to be a real estate tycoon. He then went on to host reality TV before joining politics in 2016. While he faces numerous felony counts and civil and criminal cases in US courts, the most infamous is his alleged role in the 6 January Capitol Hill attacks, where his supporters stormed the building after Joe Biden won the presidential election in 2021.
What is remarkable is that in 2018 the President of the United States imitates something a chaiwalla from vadodara told him when he decides to make policy or inform his views.
THAT is the status of Indians today and people such as Modi exemplify the “heros” of a New India. They are the chaiwallahs, the ticket collectors, the every-man of India who were born in thatched huts and today live in Rastrapathi Bhavan. They are not the Lutyens elite and the silver spoon Doon’s School Aristocrats who become MPs and PMs.
For this fact alone, PM Modi’s legacy will be long.
‘Our Indian accent is our Achilles heel’. How do you respond to an amazing article like this? The writer needs serious counselling. I hope he reaches out for help quickly to deal with his inferiority co plea. Don’t worry about the rest of USA Indians. We are fine with ourselves and our accent. Also, maybe somebody at The Print could read the articles they commission.
If an accent was all it took, Shashi Tharoor would have been Prime Minister, or at least UN Secretary General. 2. Even if spoken in Hindi, that blunt assessment of America’s balance sheet in Afghanistan rings true.
