This is better than The Tabloids. Â Talk about the obvious. The only surprise here is that the starchy Brits see the Huckster in the White House for what he is. A Shameless, Incompetent Loser.
Excerpted from The Guardian 7.6.2019
Britainâs ambassador in the United States has described President Donald Trump and his administration as âineptâ and âuniquely dysfunctionalâ, according to âleakedâ diplomatic memos published by the Mail on Sunday.
Ambassador Kim Darroch reportedly said Trumpâs presidency could âcrash and burnâ and âend in disgraceâ, in the cache of secret cables and briefing notes sent back to Britain and seen by the newspaper.
âWe donât really believe this administration is going to become substantially more normal; less dysfunctional; less unpredictable; less faction riven; less diplomatically clumsy and inept,â Darroch allegedly wrote in one dispatch.
The paper said the most damning comments allegedly made by Darroch described Trump, who was received by the Queen during a state visit to Britain just last month, as âinsecureâ and âincompetentâ.
A memo sent following the controversial visit allegedly said the president and his team had been âdazzledâ by the visit but warned Britain might not remain âflavour of the monthâ because âthis is still the land of America Firstâ.
He reportedly wrote that the âvicious infighting and chaosâ inside the White House â widely reported in the US but dismissed by Trump as âfake newsâ â was âmostly trueâ.
Darroch is one of Britainâs most experienced diplomats whose posting in Washington DC began in January 2016, prior to Trump winning the presidency.
The Mail on Sunday said the memos, likely leaked by someone within Britainâs sprawling civil service, cover a period beginning in 2017.
