President Donald Trump wrongly claimed on Tuesday that his father, Fred Trump, was 'born in a very wonderful place in Germany.'
For at least the fourth time since taking office, the U.S. leader appeared to suggest on Tuesday that he does not, as he incorrectly claimed that his father, Fred Trump, was born in Germany.
It is unclear why Trump continues to insist that his father was born in the western European country. However, every time he has invoked the claim, including at least three instances last year, the president has been either criticizing Germany's contribution to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization or the European Union's trade relationship with the U.S.
Trump went on to say:"I respect the leaders of those countries. But—in a trade sense, they've really taken advantage of us and many of those countries are in NATO and they weren't paying their bills."
