Donald Trump mega-donor Shalabh Kumar has posted an ad in which the Trump himself speaks Hindi. In fact, the deflated egg sac emits just a few words before the video cuts ahead, suggesting that he couldn’t muster five words in a row, one of which was his own name.

This 30-second spot, paid for by Trump’s campaign, jarringly splices together footage from Trump’s speech last week at the Republican Hindu Coalition event, along with some choice still frames, like Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace Hotel exploding:

His praise for Indian prime minister Narendra Modi, who’s widely believed to be complicit in mass murder of Muslim Indians, is no accident either.
