Britain's New Foreigh Secretary Called Trump a "Neo-Nazi-Sympathizing Sociopath" [View all]

Link to tweet

/history

The 2018 Time article was published ahead of Trump’s first visit to the U.K., and Lammy committed to be one of “tens of thousands on the streets, protesting against our government’s capitulation to this tyrant in a toupee.”

“Trump is not only a woman-hating, neo-Nazi-sympathizing sociopath. He is also a profound threat to the international order that has been the foundation of Western progress for so long,” he wrote in Time. “It is because I cherish and champion those values that this Friday, I will march with London against Donald Trump.”
