Popular Post Social Media Posted January 22 Popular Post Share Posted January 22 In a surprising turn of events, former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has voiced his support for a second term for Donald Trump, claiming it could be a "big win for the world" and "just what the world needs." This endorsement comes amid concerns and warnings from British diplomats about potential security risks if Trump were to be re-elected. Johnson, known for his bold statements and unapologetic style, dismissed the widespread apprehension in Britain as a "caterwauling orgy" and mocked various institutions, including the Church of England, the BBC, and what he referred to as "much of the UK establishment." He accused critics of Trump of succumbing to an "orgy of nose-holding abhorrence" and suggested that their reactions were exaggerated. Despite acknowledging Trump's role in inciting the Capitol riot, Johnson defended him by asserting that he is not a "would-be dictator." He argued that Trump's "sheer unpredictability is a major deterrent to the enemies of the West," downplaying concerns raised by former top diplomats regarding potential security risks. In a column for the Daily Mail, Johnson criticized the "hysterics" surrounding Trump's potential re-election, particularly those who have been vocal about their worries regarding Trump's stance on Ukraine and NATO. Johnson, however, expressed confidence that Trump would not betray Ukraine, pointing to the former president's record of supplying Kyiv with Javelin anti-tank weapons. The former UK leader suggested that the world needs a leader "whose willingness to use force and sheer unpredictability is a major deterrent to the enemies of the West." Despite Trump's hesitancy on certain international matters, Johnson insisted that a Trump presidency could be a "big win for the world" if he supports Ukraine. As the debate over Trump's potential return to the political arena continues, Johnson's endorsement adds a controversial perspective to the ongoing discussions about the future of global leadership. 23.01.24 Source 1 1 5 1 1 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post JonnyF Posted January 23 Popular Post Share Posted January 23 Boris is spot on, once again. Both he and Trump have more charisma in their little fingers than Biden could ever hope to muster, even when juiced up for a debate. Let's hope Johnson can rise like a phoenix from the ashes with his own political comeback, possibly with Reform UK. 3 3 2 2 2 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RayC Posted January 23 Popular Post Share Posted January 23 (edited) In the words of David Liddington, former Tory Deputy PM, Johnson should be seen as ".. a significant prime minister, but not seen as good for the country". Another former Tory MP, Paul Goodman suggests that Johnson " ... was never any good at actually governing (...he was like ...) a Turkish sultan or a Tudor monarch, ruling by whim, constantly changing his mind, with no clear strategic direction". Pretty much spot on imo. Johnson was also shown to be a liar who never accepted responsibility for his actions. Maybe best for Trump's campaign if his strategists distanced themselves from his endorsement although, perhaps, dishonesty and incompetence are viewed as positive attributes nowadays?

Popular Post paul1804 Posted January 23 Popular Post Share Posted January 23 (edited) I couldn't agree with Boris more! I am not an American and dont live there but followed the 2016 election with interest, especially after the 9/11 debacle, how the USA orchestrated the murder of their own president back in 1963 and the Iraq invasion based on known lies! The actions of the Bush, Clinton & Biden families just to name a few and the effects they had on the world makes the mind boggle! One couldn't help but notice how Trumps pre election rallies were supported and followed by mostly many thousands of people and in contrast Joe Bidens were virtually empty car parks and town halls, in many cases just a few dozen followers so how is it that he won the election. To add to that Hilary's actions leading up to the 2016 election, Joe & family's action prior to the 2020 election one would have to ask yourself how do the democrats get legitimately elected! Well maybe Trump was right on the money, maybe it was rigged? Following the global actions of the CIA and to a lesser extent the FBI anything is possible!

Chomper Higgot Posted January 24 Share Posted January 24 Johnson gave up his U.S. citizenship. He can run his lying mouth but he can’t vote and he can’t donate to the Trump campaign or the Republican Party. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boris is a highly intelligent man. The fact that you disagree with his politics does not make him stupid. One look at his educational and career achievements should tell you that. Even if he were stupid, at least he would still have charisma. Biden has neither. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can pretend to be Irish as much as he likes but he cannot vote so maybe he should stop running his lying mouth about Britain, Brexit, Ireland etc. and get back to starting wars around the globe in an attempt to secure another term?

I can say, however, that his statements in support of Trump are incoherent. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
