I can usually think of pros and cons for any political leader but I can't think of any pros for Trump whereas there is a big stack of cons. Truss, too. Even BoJo has a certain amount of wit and charm.
Your post reminded me of this.
Boris Johnson, earlier this year, in his weekly Daily Mail column, backed Donald Trump as prospective President, saying that his return to the White House could be...
"just what the world needs".
He must have forgotten what he said about the man in 2015 (as Mayor) when Trump was President and planning a complete ban on all Muslims entering the USA.
"You can’t ban people going to the United States in that way, or indeed to any country"
Then, after Trump's subsequent claim that his ban was justified because immigrants had made parts of London into 'no-go' zones, Johnson observed that Trump was...
"betraying a quite stupefying ignorance that makes him frankly unfit to hold the office of president of the United States.”
and
"I would invite him to come and see the whole of London and take him round the city, except that I wouldn’t want to expose Londoners to any unnecessary risk of meeting Donald Trump.”
... which Trump appeared to be totally unaware of when he said...
“A really good man is going to be the prime minister of the U.K. now, Boris Johnson, he’s tough and he’s smart. They’re saying, ‘Britain Trump.’ They call him ‘Britain Trump.’ And people are saying that’s a good thing. They like me over there, that’s what they wanted. That’s what they need.”
Talk about making someone else's victory all about YOU!
Both men are duplicitous narcistic hypocrites, the only difference between them is that Johnson is a better-educated duplicitous narcistic hypocrite.
