November Surprises
President Trump stepped up his criticism of the U.K. ambassador to the United States who called him “inept” in leaked cables, saying Kim Darroch is a “pompous fool.”
Said Trump: “The wacky Ambassador that the U.K. foisted upon the United States is not someone we are thrilled with, a very stupid guy.”
He also slammed May over Brexit, saying he told her “how to do that deal, but she went her own foolish way — was unable to get it done.”
