Dont talk made up bull. Khan could not give a damn about an american gropy boy, he has enough problems in london

Yet he finds the time to comment on national policy regarding Trump in interviews.....

Trump is hot topic be it support or against. Khan rolled out the typical distorted left-leaning rhetoric as it is a benefit to him.

National policy!! There is a saying over here, when america sneezes the rest of the world catches a cold.

Why do you presume left leaning rhetoric is distorted? Is it because its its not distorted right leaning rhetoric?

Remember Khan was "elected" after the cock up johnson and his right made

Why is Trump here?
So far he has insulted the Mayor of London and the Duchess of Sussex.

Maybe to be insulted?

Your mayor of london said he is not welcome,
and your actress? She'd been busy insulting
him for some time, and, Trump said he had not
been aware of it.

Every hear of TDS? It is not cool, or admirable,
or clever, or a moral high ground.

That's the whole reason why the US President seems to hold an inordinate level of prominence in world affairs. You folks in Britain seem far more interested in US politics than vice versa.


?


Hardly inordinate. Whether or not anyone
happens to like it, the world does revolve around
the USA.

No I have never heard of TDS
Is it Trump Defence Syndrome.?

The Mayor is not alone. Polls show many Millions of British People find Trump unwelcome, and that started long before he was president.
Like many Americans the Duchess of Sussex has her own reasons to dislike Trump.
The chances of him not being aware of it are infinitesimal, as was apparent at her wedding.
But then Trump always lies.

No,it is Trump Derangement Syndrome.

I am sure the mayor is not alone. That has
zero to do with that he was insulting
trump before he even got there.

As for your actress / "duchess", well,
she is one of, as you noted, millions who
like you, hate trump. Infintesimal is the chance
that T has time to keep track of even all the
actresses who voice their vapid opinions.

And, again as with what I said of your mayor,
she had been insulting him-and he said
he did not know it. That is hardly an insult.

Look at what you said here, and see if maybe
maybe the syndrome has not
taken you up in its barmy embrace.

I am not trump fan btw, just commenting on
the deranged way people react to him.

I think "does" should be "did". The USA has lost considerable influence over the last few years

Sorry-ah, but the world still very much does and
will continue to for a long time.

The current pres. is not much of a world leader,
but that is temporary, and by no means the only
aspect of the world revolving around the USA.

In 2018, NYC had 289 homicides v London's 119 homicides.

Per 100,000 individuals, the homicide rate in the USA is 5.35, whereas in the UK it's 1.20. [source: Wikipedia]

Crime is not all about murder.

There is plenty of that going on in London, but what is the percentage increase in all serious crime since Khan took over from Boris?

And his "approval rating" is in the low 20's in the UK, while Obama's in the low 70's according to a poll I saw this morning, thus almost three times higher.

Maybe you can show what the difference with overall crime comparisons then? Plus it was not me that was using homicides as being the reference point, which is why I used that stat.

Generally speaking, homicide rates generally have a positive correlation statistically with other forms of violent crime but less correlation with non-violent crimes.

About as important as the number of crab farts on the beaches of Malaysia in 1953.

Sorry??? Nope only america thinks it has the influence it once had.

Its not only trump but he has a big influence, the decline has been happening for twenty or more years? Most of the middle east and africa.

Add to that the increasing influence of china. And of course russia. Then take into consideration the 4 biggest countries/economies in europe, germany, france, the uk and spain who each have their reasons to loath trump, however a new president may improve the view of europeans.

He has more than enough problems in London.

That is a good enough reason why he needs a distraction.

You think? Or you think!

Do you really think the electorate of london are that shallow? You have a dimmer view of your own countrymen than i do

Oh please tell how was it like Reagan negotiating with the Soviets. I think Reagan got something out of the deal since Reagan came to the table with the winning hand and all the chips. What did we all get when Trump decided to go hobnob with Lil' Kim? Nothing. Zilch. Nada. What we got is a more confident Kim.
They ave not done any nuclear testing since. We captured one of their largest commercial ships, since.

The situation is slightly improved for us, worsening for them.

Actually, the only way out would have been an armada of aircraft to destroy all of their nuclear facilities, then fight the resultant war. It's too late now, no one had the cojones to do it.

It s the only option with Iran, and if Carter would have invaded them when they took our hostages, instead of literally crying in the rose garden we would never be in this boat with them

True to form, the democrat deal guaranteed nuclear weapons for them.

Sadly, we will huff and puff, but blow nothing down.

Crazy muslims, who believe if they start a nuclear war the muslim end of time and new world will occur, will get nukes

Will it improve our view of Europeans ?

That's sorta funny as so many of the Pubs railed against Obama's supposed unpopularity internationally, but now they just pooh-pooh away any criticism of Trump-- like with the above.

To put it another way, relationships do matter, even as Trump explained in his book "The Art of the Deal".
