Republican presidential frontrunner Donald Trump recently used a fake Indian accent to make a point about outsourcing.
Addressing the crowd at a Delaware rally yesterday, Trump mocked all call center employees based overseas.
"You want to find out about your credit card, guess what, you're talking to a person from India," he said.
He asked a question, "How the hell does that work?
"So, I called up, I tell the guys I'm checking on my card, I said, 'Where are you from?'" Trump said.
Then in a fake Indian accent, he added, "We are from India."
