Trump confuses two blonde Finnish journalists during press conference
President Trump on Monday confused two female journalists from Finland during a press conference with the country’s president.
“Again? You’re going to give her the same one?” Trump asked President Sauli Niinistö as he took a question from one of the reporters in the crowd.

As she took the microphone to ask a question, the reporter responded, “We have a lot of blonde women in Finland.”
Trump was taking questions in the East Room of the White House amid the ongoing recovery effort for Tropical Storm Harvey in Texas and Louisiana.
