Trump repeats claims Starmer ‘is no Churchill’
Donald Trump has repeated claims that Sir Keir Starmer was no Winston Churchill as he criticised the British prime minister.
“This was not Winston Churchill,” he said in reference to Sir Keir Starmer’s reticence to support the US conflict in Iran.
“Starmer wasn’t there, and you know what? The people of the UK did not like it that he wasn’t there. Starmer said no. Starmer said worse than no. He said we’ll be there as soon as you win.”
