LONDON ā Labour ministers have rejected a suggestion by Donald Trumpās new running mate that the U.K. is an āIslamist country.ā
J.D. Vance, named Monday as the Republican vice presidential nominee, described Britain under the new Labour government as the worldās first ātruly Islamist countryā to have a nuclear weapon.
It was a claim which came as a blow to Labour ministers, in office for less than a fortnight, who have been keen to curry favor both with Trump and Vance.
Labourās Deputy PM Angela Rayner told ITV: āLook, I donāt recognize that characterization, Iām very proud of the election success that Labour had recently. I think he said quite a lot of fruity things in the past as well.ā
Speaking days before being adopted by Trump as his vice-presidential pick, Vance, a junior senator from Ohio, told the National Conservatism Conference: āI was talking with a friend recently and we were talking about [how] one of the big dangers in the world, of course, is nuclear proliferation, though the Biden administration doesnāt care about it.
How does somebody go from calling Trump Americaās Hitler to his vice president pick?
Bootlicking. Lots and lots of bootlicking.
Vance has mever been anything more than a fucking weasel who appeals to suburbanites who absolutely detest poor people.
ā¦He doesnāt think of Hitler as an bad guy.
He bent both knees
come on, you know why lol
Political opportunism.
