Trump Lashes Out at U.K. Ambassador, PM Theresa May Following Leaked Cables
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

President Trump said Monday the U.S. would "no longer deal" with British
Ambassador to the U.S. Kim Darroch, following a recent leak of
diplomatic cables in which the ambassador calls the Trump administration
"inept" and "dysfunctional." In cables going back as far as 2017,
Darroch questioned whether the Trump administration "will ever look
competent." Trump also attacked outgoing Prime Minister Theresa May for
creating "a mess" around Brexit. Theresa May's office said in a
statement it continues to support Darroch.
