Trump's DHS secretary just said she didn't know Norway was a predominantly White country

To a direct question from Senator Patrick Lehy.

What rock was she living under all this time, and she is supposed to the person in charge of life and death decisions for immigrants from all over the world? She was not sure Norway was a white, European country?

The comedy (or tragedy depending on how you look at it) show known as the Trump administration continues.
