The law enforcement official is called Adrian Anzaldua and this is what the so-called president had to say.
“Adrian, come here, I want to ask you a question. So how did you — come here. Come here. Youre not nervous are you?”
“Youre not nervous, are you? Speaks perfect English.”
Which was the cue for all sorts of people to make pretty much the same joke.

Study hard, Mr President, and I might one day say the same about you. https://t.co/Yii3LPPNjG

Only trump can make a casual comment into a bone crushing insult and still cast it off like a joke while everyone around nervously chuckles and wonders… did I just hear what I think I heard?

He speaks perfect English, unlike @realDonaldTrump.

I've never spoken perfect English a day in my life, and neither has the President. But I'm sure I know what the President finds remarkable about Adrian's use of the language.

While introducing a Latino border patrol agent the president said that he "speaks perfect english" at a public event at the White House but you can keep on looking for an N word tape if you want to https://t.co/ADZCPNvx6k
