The Duran – News in Review – Episode 55.
US President Donald Trump's state visit to the UK was momentous, not for its substance, but rather for its sheer entertainment value.
Trump started his trip to the United Kingdom blasting Theresa May for her inability to negotiate a proper Brexit deal with the EU. Trump ended his visit holding hands with the UK Prime Minister during a press conference where the most 'special relationship' between the two allies was once again reaffirmed.
Protests saw giant Trump "baby balloons" fly over London's city center, as Trump played was his own good cop and bad cop to the UK PM, outside London at the Chequers...often times leaving May's head spinning.
Even as Trump has left London, he remains front and center in the mind of Theresa May, who has now stated that Trump advised her to "sue" the European Union to resolve the tense negotiations over Brexit.
Trump had mentioned to reporters on Friday at a joint press conference with Theresa May that he had given the British leader a suggestion that she found too "brutal."
Asked Sunday on the BBC's Andrew Marr Show what that suggestion was, May: "He told me I should sue the EU. Not go into negotiation, sue them." May added...
"What the president also said at that press conference was `Don't walk away. Don't walk away from the negotiations. Then you're stuck."'
The Duran’s Alex Christoforou and Editor-in-Chief Alexander Mercouris summarize what was a state visit like no other, as Trump trolled the UK PM from beginning to end, and left London knowing that he got the better of a weakened British Prime Minister, who may not survive in office past next week.
