Donald Trump arrives in the UK for state visit, calls London Mayor Sadiq Khan a 'stone cold loser'

Trump continues to disclose just how crass he is. Fair dinkum. If I was an invited Guest in the USA, moments before I landed in the Country the last thing I would be doing is attempting to shame, insult or be a smartarse about an important local elected Official. What a schmuck Trump is. Surely you all know he is an embarrassment to you all on the World stage, even though some of you might admire what he does domestically.

Don't be disingenuous. Khan started it. I liked Trump's comment, "He's the twin of De Blasio---only shorter." Khan had his own problems to deal with. He's just trying to get publicity, but he has been less than impressive as mayor. Knife crimes are through the roof. It's the booze and blades mentality. Who says that only guns kill? They have gun control, but not knife control...

 

Crap. Trump is the bloke who made the critical comments moments before he landed in that very Mayor's bailiwick. Has Kahn ever been in the USA and abused his Guest status? I suspect not. Trump is costing you internationally, I am telling you. His crap might work in the USA but it is well resented abroad. He disses a 'Princess' as nasty (and then lies through his teeth claiming that was fake news when there is a publicly available recording of him saying it) and now, he is disrespectful the ELECTED Mayor of London. He is a disgrace to himself and the USA. He is your representative abroad and it amazes me that any American could support his complete lack of normal courtesy, respect and inabilty to be a civil and humble Guest. If I was the UK PM, I'd turf the disrespectful bastard out for that, and damn the consequences. Air Force One would have been refused permission to land. But, thankfully I suppose, I am not the UK PM and the Brits, in typical style, while still host him courteously with stiff upper lip.

 

If you were mayor of a major city, would you insult the leader of a foreign nation who is on his way to a state visit?

This thread is so full of crap. The criticism should be aimed at Mayor Khan and his poor behavior.

You, poor soul

 

Well, there ya go, Bush Lawyer ^^^

You punch at the man; he punches back.

 

You think so?

 

Do you mind chaps, there is a rather important cricket match on at Trent Bridge I am sure some brits will be along to comment after............................................

 

Yeah, ya'll like wussies but Trump hits back.

 

What do you mean “Khan started it?”

 

The foreign ankle biters always find a reason to hate republican presidents no matter who they are

That goes back to Ronald Reagan

And trump is no exception

 

Mate

Thing is that his followers see nothing wrong with his behaviour ergo it stands to reason it is because that behaviour is a norm for them.

Some standard though

 

Read the article that I linked, abovethread.

Khan penned a propaganda-filled and hateful screed about Trump. This was just as Trump was on his way. It would be comparable to the mayor of Washington D.C. writing some lying propaganda against Angela Merkel, or Theresa May, or Shinzō Abe while they were about to received for a formal visit.

It's stunningly "bad form".

 

The important difference being that the Mayor did not say that as an imminent Guest of the USA.

@ Dutch...I know so. I live out here....outside the USA.

 

I doubt it.....they are presently under pressure. It will be a good win if they get this one against Pakistan. 311/5 with 3.9 overs to go. It'll be close.

 

Hmmm
Erudite considered criticism

As opposed to “waaaaaah! You is a poopy Head!”

 

What makes this an important difference?

So, you're perfectly fine with inviting a guest to dinner and allowing your son to pee on his plate? Then we should get all shocked that the guest complains?

 

Don’t worry

The Queen will sort it out

 

That article is sheer propaganda. I'll agree that it was well constructed, but it is hateful bile.

 

She has.

Mayor Khan was emphatically not invited to attend.

 

Then what did he say it as?

 

348/8 not a good fielding performance, need a good start to our innings.

I heard a rumour Prince Phillip is driving Trump back to the airport!

 

The Mayor of London did not invite Trump to his London Home. The British Government invited that crass Trump to the UK out of historical respect and routine diplomacy, not out of respect for Trump the person, the lying ***** grabbing grub.

 

Thats a real slap in the face to the mayor of london

 

A student has attempted to catch the eye of Donald Trump by mowing an environmental message into grass under the flight path of Air Force One.

Ollie Nancarrow, 18, cut an image of a giant penis, a polar bear and a climate change message on his family's land close to Stansted Airport, Essex.

The US president arrived at the airport on Monday morning for a three-day state visit to the UK.

The teenager wrote "Climate change is real", as well as "Oi Trump".
