Donald Trump 'unaware UK was nuclear power'

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-53090938

Donald Trump was unaware the UK was a nuclear power, according to a book by his former national security adviser John Bolton.

The US President is alleged to have made the comments about British military capability at a meeting with former PM Theresa May two years ago.

Mr Bolton, who worked in the White House for 17 months, said the president was "stunningly uninformed *".

Mr Bolton's 577-page tome, The Room Where It Happened, is due to go on sale next week - but the Trump administration is trying to block its publication.

In a tweet, the president described the book as "made up of lies and fake stories".
* No surprise there .....

Candidly I believe absolutely nothing that comes from anything associated with American politics and very little that comes from America.

Would I believe Bolton over Trump or for that matter Trump over Bolton?

Err, no.

I'm certainly no sycophant but warts and all I rate this POTUS the best POTUS in decades.

Yeh, and now passing the Caesar Act into law, based on lies, and determination to get Assad out, and at the same time destroying the people of Syria.

Trump and Pompeo, (and Bolton) Absolute criminals.. all of them. I think their so called standing up for 'human rights' is nothing but self interest in the rewards and the next move to more world dominance .
Unfortunately for them, China also have far reaching nuclear weaponry.. how will they sort that one out ?
