If you thought President Trump was going to tone down his brand of no holds barred politics while on a state visit to the United Kingdom, think again.
During a press conference with British journalists, all while outgoing Prime Minister Theresa May looked on, Trump blasted his left-wing critics, particularly London Mayor Sadiq Khan and opposition Labor Party leader Jeremy Corbyn.
The President followed up his recent remarks that Khan is “a stone-cold loser” when prompted by a reporter, criticizing Khan for the high crime rate in London and referencing an op-ed the mayor wrote stating Trump is “one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat.”
Trump Unloads
“You’re talking about the mayor of London, is that who you said? Yes,” Trump responded to one reporter. “Well, I think he has been a not very good mayor from what I understand.”
“I don’t think he should be criticizing a representative of the United States that can do so much good for the United Kingdom,” the President said adding, Khan “hurts the people of this great country and I think he should actually focus on his job.”

Trump ripped Khan for the growing crime rate in London as well, saying “he’s probably caused” a lot of those problems.
According to the BBC, the number of killings in London rose to the highest level in a decade in 2018, despite Khan’s firm anti-gun and anti-knife – yes, anti-knife – policies.
“There is never a reason to carry a knife,” Khan said as such attacks were rising in 2018. “Anyone who does will be caught, and they will feel the full force of the law.”
“He’s done a poor job, crime is up, a lot of problems,” Trump said of the mayor.
….Kahn reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job – only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now!

The Khan/Trump feud has been going on for some time, as the London mayor does indeed resemble a pint-sized version of the ever-oblivious de Blasio, flailing all over the place with his critiques while seeking the adoration of his radical base.
Last month, Khan asserted Donald Trump does not deserve a state visit to the United Kingdom in the first place and claimed the American President was not “in the same class” as former President Barack Obama.
To that point, Khan is correct – Obama was on the JV team for eight years while Trump is taking home championship trophies in his first term.
Hammers Jeremy Corbyn
Meanwhile, during the press conference, the President confirmed that Corbyn had sought a sit-down meeting, but he decided to snub him because he is a “negative force.”
Corbyn has been repeatedly accused of anti-Semitism and has referred to terrorist organizations Hamas and Hezbollah as “friends.”
New York Democrat Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez praised Corbyn recently and fawned over their “lovely and wide-reaching conversation.”
Contrast that with Trump, who told the British media, “I don’t know Jeremy Corbyn, never met him, never spoke to him – he wanted to meet today or tomorrow and I decided I would not do that.”
“I think that he is, from where I come from, somewhat of a negative force. I think people should look to do things correctly as opposed to criticize. I really don’t like critics as much as I like and respect people who get things done,” the President added.
Talk about wingnuts, you are so hate filled you would be a good candidate to be on The View, all they do is spew lies without educating themselves about what is really going on. Are you related to joy behar or whatever that broads name is, as you sound just exactly like her.
You might as well save your time replying to abbie hoffman she is one of the Trump haters and thinks she knows it all. Her replies back just get dumber.
You must get your sources from CNN and the other 2 fake news channels.
No thanks…wingnut sources are pure fiction.
The Queen sure did. Obamy has lots of really good articles about him and some of his lovers just start surfering you will find lots of info, bath house barry is probably a good place to start.
The terrorists really loved obama, didn’t they?
Cite your sources on Obama.
The Brits really loved Trump didn’t they? *lol*
You must have liked the liar in chief that screwed up the USA for the last 8 years. Look at some of his comments when he wasn’t president and also some of the pictures of him and his boy toys. Our president is getting America back to the country we were always proud of and n running all over
the world running our country down. I pity you if you can’t see what a great president is like.
I thank God that our President Trump is not in the same class as Barack Obama! Corbyn & AOC are infidels. Anyone who is ‘friends’ with terrorist groups needs to have their heads examined. Those groups would behead them in a heartbeat given the chance.
You mean telling like it is in this fashion?
Trump hinted that he’d like to see US companies replace the NHS if Brexit goes thru. Not a smart thing to do. The Brits like the way their healthcare system is now. Trump just KILLED Brexit *LOL*
Islam is out to “eliminate all infidels” as you obviously know. So sad that they’ve been allowed to take over so much of the western world. They should be kept within the bounds of the middle east where they can concentrate on killing just each other & leave us alone.
Love our President, he tells it like it is and I admire him for that, it is great to have an honest man in the white house after the 8 years of secrecy and lies by the last person that
pretended to be a president.
So you’re saying the people of London prefer the rise in knife and acid attacks? They like the neighborhoods where Sharia Law is being enforced by Muslim thugs? They like the high unemployment rates?
Their reaction to his visit is perpetrated by the Soros destroyers. Soros and companies are out to disrupt the world. He is an evil man and has been at this for too many years. In the end evil will not prevail. The good people are busy with life and do not have time to go out and demonstrate.. The losers and pathetic ones have all the time because they do not have anything else in their pathetic lives.
It’s almost comical to hear them all parrot the same utter lies and nonsense.
I guess I shoiuld feel sorry for them.
Maybe I should learn from Nancy Pelosi … I should pray for them.
THEY are losers? *LOL*
The British people feel Trump is the loser. Their reaction to his visit says it all.
Yeah..how dare they actually have a free election for a mayor….
We Have had many years, through several recent Presidents, of saying what is proper and saying what others expect politicians to say. We tried civility and every country, who had the chance, took our kindness as as weakness. The POTUS finally changed that methodology and I for one am very appreciative for that. Vote Vote
The only thing that bothers me when he responds to these losers is that they get mentioned and they do not deserve to be noticed,, They are failures looking for attention and this gives them what they do not deserve.
On the other hand who else is going to call them out for their dirty shenanigans? The media died they are the creators of the chaos and lies!! (with the exception of Fox)
Amennn !!! ! !!!
Sadly, the Londoners are Responsible by themselves for having such a Mohamedanistic mess in this once English city .
He said it as it is no bars held tooooo bad for those who cannot handle the truth.
first of all, this AOC person is a left wing socialist – she is a bernie sanders want ta be – one of the worst kind who would end up destroying a country or nation or republic – look at what the socialist did to venezuela just recently – look at what socialism did to once a thriving place such as Cuba once was and look at the outcome of what castro did to this place under the thumb print of socialism – socialism does not work – all it does is put place into chaos and distress – as we know any place muslims get a hold off are often destroyed – I see london town eventually going up in flames
Having a Muslim be a mayor or any political figure is a problem except in their country and they can do whatever they want just keep your politics away from my politics
