This isn't Obama or even Bush who appreciated and celebrated our strong relationship with the UK. Despite that state visit where he embarrassed himself, Trumo doesnt care. Alliances only matter when they benefit him personally or he is compromised and has to maintain (Russia).

Darroch was screwed and it's a damn travesty.
