Lammy On Calling Trump A Neo-Nazi: Everyone’s Done It
David Lammy has just been on BBC Breakfast to talk about Starmer’s EPC summit today. Apart from saying Labour isn’t trying to rejoin the EU because “we’re only two weeks into government”, Lammy was asked about his previous comments on Trump. Lammy called Trump a “neo-Nazi-sympathising sociopath” in a 2018 Time opinion piece and said he would be one of “tens of thousands on the streets, protesting against our government’s capitulation to this tyrant in a toupee“. Hysterical…
Naga Munchetty asked: “How does that set up a relationship for you and him if he wins the election?” Lammy’s answer: We’ve all done it…
Lammy said “you’re going to struggle to find any politician who has not had things to say about Donald Trump in his first term.” David Cameron called him a “misogynist” and JD Vance himself had choice words for his now running mate. Unfortunately millions of Americans made the guy President and are about to again…
The Foreign Secretary tried some other lines, like “Donald Trump has the thickest of skins.” When Munchetty asked him if he would, like Vance, say his comments were a mistake, he refused. That bodes well for the special relationship…
