US President Donald Trump arrived London this morning to begin a three-day visit, tweeting a double stinging rebuke of London Mayor Sadiq Khan, his critic.
Trump, who wrote the tweet while aboard Air Force One called Khan a “stone-cold loser” after the mayor criticised the British government’s decision to invite Trump for a state visit.
Part of his verbal missile also went back to New York Mayor de Blasio.
Read Trump’s tweets:
.@SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly “nasty” to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me……

….Kahn reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job – only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now!
