I'm sure he's more than fully briefed. He's just thick as s*** so doesn't understand what he's being told so has to come out with these bumbling bland "everything's gonna be fine" statements when pretty much any world issue is raised. He really is astonishingly simple but so many voters don't need to hear anything more than those words as they are of a similar intellectual level. UK politics is getting more like this with the masses' views influenced by a couple of sponsored targetted tweets.
He should really have consulted the President of Nambia or asked his friend Tim Apple - the CEO of Apple.
I've just realised that he is a totally charmless version of Douglas Reynholm. Attention span of a goldfish. Can you imagine someone trying to brief him on the Good Friday agreement? It would last 15 seconds before he got bored and dismissed the advisor.
I missed this. good Lad. https://www.indy100.com/article/jim...iew-watch-state-visit-ollie-nancarrow-8946601

He's spent the best part of two years banging on about returning to the Moon: https://thehill.com/homenews/admini...cused-on-the-much-bigger-things-than-going-to Now he's reduced to shouting at it.
Probably the best place to post this. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/...ould-block-jeremy-corbyn-from-no-10-h5d3zzjb9
Labour has accused President Trump’s secretary of state of trying to stop Jeremy Corbyn becoming prime minister. Mike Pompeo was caught on tape telling Jewish leaders that he would “push back” against the party leadership. In a recording leaked to The Washington Post, America’s top diplomat was asked what he would do if Mr Corbyn were to become prime minister, after criticism of Labour’s handling of accusations of antisemitism in the party. Mr Pompeo appeared to suggest that he would seek to intervene before such an outcome could happen. “It could be that Mr Corbyn manages to run the gauntlet and get elected,” he told the private meeting in New York this month. “You should know, we won’t wait for him to do those things to begin to push back. We will do our level best. It’s too risky and too important and too hard once it’s already happened.” The comments drew complaints that US officials were meddling in Britain’s political affairs. A Labour spokesman said: “President Trump and his officials’ attempts to decide who will be Britain’s next prime minister are an entirely unacceptable interference in the UK’s democracy.” He added that the party was “fully committed to the support, defence and celebration of the Jewish community and is implacably opposed to antisemitism”. Mr Pompeo was also heard saying that the Conservatives’ fifth place finish in the European elections was “an absolute failure of leadership” and criticised the party’s direction under Theresa May. “The Tories finished fifth in Britain” in last month’s European election results, Mr Pompeo noted. “If I had told you that even 90 days ago, you’d have laughed me out of here, and you’d have done so properly,” he said. “This is an absolute failure of leadership to demonstrate value.” The comments were published at a sensitive time for Anglo-American relations, following Mr Trump’s public praise for Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage, Eurosceptic contenders to the premiership. Mr Trump, who criticised his predecessor President Obama for cautioning Britons against voting to leave the EU, told The Sun he thought Mr Johnson was a “excellent” choice for prime minister. Mr Corbyn said the intervention was “unacceptable”. Mr Pompeo, a hardline conservative who was Mr Trump’s CIA director before becoming America’s top diplomat, previously criticised the Labour leader for opposing foreign intervention in Venezuela. In a joint press conference with Jeremy Hunt, the foreign secretary, last month, Mr Pompeo accused Mr Corbyn of lending support to Nicholas Maduro, the Venezuelan leader who is not recognised by Britain or the US. “It is disgusting to see leaders, in not only the United Kingdom but the United States as well, who continue to support the murderous dictator Maduro,” Mr Pompeo said. The state department did not comment on the disclosure of his latest remarks about Mr Corbyn.
Ironic if we just become another ‘rogue’ state the US feels it needs to undermine. ‘Special relationship’.

^ deleted, unfortunately. That must have been a humdinger if Trump deleted it, given the ones he HASN'T deleted.
Good on them. Corbyn must be stopped by any means. If that includes interference in our democracy, then that's fine.
More gloating from Trump about deaths in London. Extraordinary what politics has come to really. The president of the US taunting London with racist Katie Hopkin’s tweets. Let’s put aside the lies that Khan had any role in starting this. Trump fired all the first shots in a typical play of his. The lack of support for Khan across the Government is shocking. It puts to bed once more the lie of ‘sovereignty’. Brexiteers have no desire to have policies that ensure independence from US/Trump interests. Feeble. Interesting graphic here, https://twitter.com/adambienkov/status/1140151698503196672?s=21
Yes he is. Half the death rate of NY. Quarter of LA & SF. One thirtieth Baltimore. The Orange **** can **** right off. Knife crimes have been going up roughly proportionately across the whole of the UK.
How do you judge how events are influenced by national government or local mayors? In 2011 when Boris was mayor London was ablaze for a week with the worst riots for 30 years? Was that down to Boris? And once more, this was Boris’s reaction when Trump first started with his Londonistan racist crap.
As I said, whatever his motives are, he isn't wrong. Khan is a terrible London mayor. As will be seen when he isn't reelected.
So you condemn equally the mayors/heads of government of Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Leicester? No you don't.
Stuff like that is never presented in context over here. They truly believe London and Birmingham are Sharia dominated crime pits that he police don't dare go near. It's incredible. The bullsh*t I hear about life in the UK drops my jaw on regular basis. The level of ignorance is staggering. And lets be honest: Trump's issue with Kahn is that Kahn is a brown Muslim.
And in other Trump related matters, why was Sajid Javid not invited to the banquet? That is some weirdness when ministers junior to him were.
