I was prepared to almost defend them if the photo had been of the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam, since he has more de facto power in Vietnam than the President does and you can kinda see how that mistake would have been made. Even then it would have been an awful blunder that someone whose literal job is to represent his country to the leaders of other countries shouldn’t be making (and neither should his PR team), but you could follow how it happened.
But it’s not even that. It’s the Chairman of the National Assembly. The equivalent of the US Speaker of the House. Pretty indefensible blunder.
Joey B himself isn't updating his own Twitter page.
His Twitter page speaks for the US government (@POTUS). This reflects poorly on the US, if nothing else.
Dude if you've ever struggled getting your pants legs onto your legs this past month I don't want to hear a fucking thing from you about some intern uploading DCIM_2938484.jpg instead of DCIM_2938483 as a pic for a post on a goddamn microblog site
Yup, US is telling Vietnam that they care about the relationship so much that they just had some intern post random pics without anybody actually bothering to even check who's in them.
At this point I'd be surprised if Joe was capable of wiping his own ass without assistance.
edit: thanks for letting me know just how triggered y'all are 😂
