Derek Tran reverses himself, claims he's fluent in Vietnamese again

After claiming he fluently speaks Vietnamese, then admitting he's not, yesterday Derek Tran reversed himself again to claim once again he's fluent in Vietnamese.

HOST: "You've touted yourself as the 'only candidate who speaks fluent Vietnamese' in a district than includes Orange County's Little Saigon, but after you struggled to answer some basic questions in Vietnamese and questions were raised in the press, you admitted that you speak 'broken Vietnamese.' Why did you claim to be fluent when you're not?"

TRAN: "Look, Frank, at the end of the day, I believe that I am fluent in Vietnamese."

"This guy lies about EVERYTHING. One day he's fluent, the next he's not, and now he's fluent again - it's clear Derek Tran will say anything to get elected, even if it means lying to voters' faces." - NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
