1. ENOUGH OF THE SHYNESS?
MR CYNIC ,   SAFED CYNIC HOUSE   (06.03.19)
Why should President Trump always have to be so reserved and silent and restrained and and taciturn and bashful ? ? it is time he spoke his mind for once and let us all know how truly feels.
2. Such false journalism, under trump CO2 is way down
(06.03.19)
Trump has reduced carbon emissions and pollution but as long as he doesn't submit it the globalist fascists they will pretend otherwise.
Fact Paris accord did nothing for global reduction. Allowed biggest polluters to continue to grow.
Wind and solar increase CO2 more than nuclear or gas..
3. Trump calls a Spade a Spade .
Mr. Spade ,   LONDON   (06.03.19)
4. YOU JUST GOT TO LET 'EM KNOW
DONALD THUMP ,   SAFED WASHINGTON   (06.03.19)
If I don't tell them exactly what I think of them ,they will never know.
5. MAYOR SADIQ KHAN
COCKNEY GEEZER ,   LONDON INNIT   (06.03.19)
Who called the Mayor a Wanker ? who called the Wanker a Mayor ?
6. How RUDE! this POTUS 45 is!

7. Oh STFU
GHook93 ,   Chicagoi   (06.03.19)
How rude it is to have an Islamist run your largest city. He is a POS. The article he wrote about Trump was so defamatory it was funny. I mean violent crime is higher in London then NYC and he has the ballz to criticize anyone?

Trumps response was sophmoric and busch league, but he wasn't wrong.
8. Too bad this "article" doesn't provide Khan's ACTUAL quote.
Jake   (06.03.19)
After providing a list of alleged offenses Mayor Sadiq Khan holds President Trump guilty of, he then states (in a scathing opinion piece in "The Guardian"):

"No, these are not the actions of European dictators of the 1930s and 40s. Nor the military juntas of the 1970s and 80s. I’m not talking about Vladimir Putin or Kim Jong-un. These are the actions of the leader of our closest ally, the president of the United States of America."

Khan then continues:
"Donald Trump is just one of the most egregious examples of a growing global threat."
No surprise he makes no mention of Islamic fascism terrorism as a global and domestic threat.
To him, the main threats come from Trump, Viktor Orbán, Matteo Salvini, Marine Le Pen, and Nigel Farage.

In light of this egregious character assassination, Khan shouldn't complain about Trump's response. Indeed, by calling him a "stone cold loser", Trump was going easy on him.
9. Mayor Khan ,Corbyn and others
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (06.03.19)
London Mayor ,and Labour opposition leader Corbyn should make a pilgrimage to the various american military cemeteries ,such as the cemetery in Normandy ,and realize and appreciate the enormous sacrifice americans made 75 years ago in order to protect Britain from the germans.
10. Sadiq Khan
C   (06.03.19)
this man is the islamist marxist mayor of the once beautiful civilised city
of london.
today london is dangerous and unkempt, filled with migrants who use
knives to stab people.
khan has the temerity to call the democratically elected president of
the united states a growing global threat. khan compares president
trump to past and present dictators and autocrats.
islam has caused huge amounts of harm to itself and to western
societies where women can no longer walk the streets in safety.
11. "Off to a Rocky start "

Adrian ? Adrian ?
12. THE DUMB MAYOR GOT WHAT HE WISHED FOR
Iranian Jew ,   LALA LAND   (06.04.19)
Trump will give you his 2 cents if you try to mess with him publicly. The same people that Trump just called biggest ally are in favor of the mullahs and want the mullhas to stay since BP buys buck loads of oil from them. All the BS human right crap you hear in UK is just lip service for the media.
13. Khan is a stone cold loser. Trump is nothing but truthful
Chaim ,   Israel   (06.04.19)
Khan is a stone cold loser who insults Trump constantly, while his pathetic leadership turns once beautiful London into a pile of crap. Trump is nothing but truthful, and the British had better smarten or they will permanently lose London and the rest of their nation too.
14. Has this Khan character been a shabby mayor for London?
Cameron   (06.05.19)
Trump duel aside, what kind of quality rating does he really merit as serving mayor?
15. Y r Trump's 4 adult children & their spouses there 2?
US taxpayer   (06.05.19)
Seriously why is that every single time that POTUS 45 goes on an official visit to a foreign country his adult children are hitchin' a ride on the USA taxpayers penny?

16. The President did good !
TEL EM STRAIGHT ,   SAFED HONESTY   (06.06.19)
17. KHAN OR KHANT ?
COCKNEY GEEZER ,   LONDON INNIT   (06.06.19)
Mayor Khan could not organize the proverbial " drinks party in a Brewery " and has thus far done a very poor job.
