CNN’s Cuomo Refers to White House Aide Raj Shah as ‘Raj Whatever His Name Is’

Cuomo Refers to White House Aide Raj Shah as ‘Raj Whatever His Name Is’ (The Washington Free Beacon)

CNN host Chris Cuomo referred to White House aide Raj Shah as Raj "whatever his name is" during a discussion Monday of the continuing fallout from President Donald Trump's reported vulgar remarks about foreign countries last week.

Shah, an Indian-American and the White House deputy press secretary, released a statement shortly after the Washington Post reported Trump made remarks about "s—hole" countries in Africa that didn't dispute Trump's comments.

"We went to the White House when it happened, and Raj whatever his name is didn't back off the words," Cuomo said on "New Day" in a clip flagged by The Daily Caller.
