“Trump’s White House is “uniquely dysfunctional” and “inept”, “

Donald Trump’s White House is “uniquely dysfunctional” and “inept”, according to leaked memos from the UK’s ambassador in Washington.

The documents detail Sir Kim Darroch’s judgements on the Trump administration from 2017 to the present, and could prove highly embarrassing for the Foreign Office.

In the diplomatic memos, obtained by the Mail on Sunday, Sir Kim questioned whether the White House “will ever look competent”.

Officials insisted the relationship with the US could withstand the “mischievous” leak and defended Sir Kim’s candid style of assessment.

In one scathing assessment, he wrote: “We don’t really believe this administration is going to become substantially more normal; less dysfunctional; less unpredictable; less faction riven; less diplomatically clumsy and inept.”:Roflmao

The world can't stand Trump actually looking out for our interests first.

The UK has no citizens; they are all subjects and subjects to what is increasingly becoming a leftist police state. Some are saying the Thames is now a sewer due to the breakdown of waste disposal in a city of ten million.

There is nothing at all dysfunctional about the White House. It's only the Democrat party in the US that is dysfunctional. But the Democrat party has joined the international left and its dysfunctional value system.

The UK and Europe (not to mention the Democrats) don't like the current administration, because in the past previous administrations were willing to pay Europe's bills.

Under previous administrations, the US was the world's economic gravy train. Now, that Trump has decided that we not going to taken advantage of, now that we are not going to pay everyone else's bills and shell out countless billions to other nations, for nothing in return, and now that they have been told to pay their own bills and carry their own weight in NATO, suddenly we find out that they never really liked us at all.

The world hates a US president with a backbone that doesn't want to shell out money to other people and get nothing for it. Europe used the great bastion of Christianity and a missionary center sending the Gospel around the world. Now Europe is a shell of its former self, they have pretty much surrendered to the Muslims to their own peril. Europe has its own dysfunction to deal with. Europe is a mess.

That’s an overly glib way of agreeing with the ambassador

The ambassador’s statements can easily be tested. What is Trump’s policy for ME?

Nothing other than spiting President Obama

There is nothing in what I said that in any way agrees with that stupid ambassador.

Soros can't seem to find educated trolls to send here. That ambassador represents an European welfare state which has millions of Muslims on the dole until the end of the world. They say the Thames is a sewer.

They have let the Muslims destroy Europe. London is no longer British, according to John Cleese of Monty Python fame. There are more rapes and sexual assaults on European women than are reported.. It's a mess in Sweden and Germany from all of these "refugees" who will never leave now that they have implanted themselves in Europe. The Left in Europe have ruined the continent through multi-culturalism and allowing Muslims to pretty much kill who they want with no retribution because any aggressive response to Muslim violence is "Islamophobic." Any mention of their crimes against the European populace is "Islamophobic."

If we give the Muslims a foothold in US, we will find the same thing over here. But Americans are not like Europeans; and in my neck of the woods, if you assault someone's wife and child, you'd better pray the police find you first.

it's all about Iran, this is a intricate relationship here, the DM article gives much better background:

Britain's man in the the US says Trump is 'inept': Cables from ambassador say he is 'dysfunctional' | Daily Mail Online

this Sir Kim was a big Hillary supporter, and he was appointed to this post when the UK was sure she was going to win, he was in agreement with her views. But then Trump won and Sir Kim was still a never Trumper and thought they'd prove collusion with Russia. When that failed, too, he just did the slow burn as it dawned on him that when Teresa May went, he'd soon follow.

He should be furious over this leak, though, and the timing is awfully suspicious. Trump has long wanted to replace him with that Nigel guy, and now they probably will. Hasta la vista baby

The nasty memos date to before Trump walked away from JCPOA. Good thing is all he was doing was part of his job; giving an honest assessment. Ambassadors are not supposed to be White House poodles.

Amazing how Trump has held hitting back. But it's a win for him as it embarrassed Britain and pushes them on the defense. This is a card he plays not against a dispensable employee but against British foreign policy.

No, they're not supposed to be America's lapdogs but I don' think Kim wanted any of this to be made public - he is an ambassador, they don't speak like that. The whole idea is to improve the relationship.

In one of the most recent reported dispatches filed on June 22 Darroch criticised Trump's fraught foreign policy on Iran, which has prompted fears in global capitals of a military conflict, as "incoherent" and "chaotic".

He allegedly said the president's assertion, that he called off retaliatory missile strikes against the Iranian regime after a US drone was shot down because it risked killing 150 Iranians, "doesn't stand up".

"It's more likely that he was never fully on board and that he was worried about how this apparent reversal of his 2016 campaign promises would look come 2020," Darroch reportedly stated, referring to the next presidential election.

I hear you. The US made a fatal mistake with Iran by openly supporting the Shah for years while keeping the Islamists murmerers at bay. They never saw the revolution coming until it was too late.

That's the error of partisanship in foreign policy. You can't afford blind bias. This man must rise above his Left leaning and paint a true picture. It's possible his spin is largely influencing Britain and Trump is reading this. A conservative on one side of the pond reaching to conservatives is a threat to the political establishment. Spewing toxic hate 24/7 is a disservice to his handlers.
