Trump delivers harsh criticism towards London mayor Sadiq Khan in viral video clip, labelling him as rude
In a recent press conference at Trump's Turnberry golf resort, former U.S. President Donald Trump renewed his criticism of London Mayor Sadiq Khan, calling him a "nasty person" who has done a "terrible job" managing London[1][2][3][5].
The remarks, made during Trump's visit to Scotland in late July 2025, created an awkward moment, especially as UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer sat beside Trump. In a bid to diffuse the situation, Starmer jokingly stated that Khan is a friend of his[1][2].
In response to Trump's comments, a spokesperson for Khan said that the mayor was "delighted" Trump wants to visit London and emphasized that the city's diversity strengthens it, rather than weakens it[2].
The exact nature of the friendship between Starmer and Khan was not specified in the article. As of early August 2025, there have been no new developments altering this dynamic, with Trump maintaining his critical stance and the UK government and Khan's representatives continuing to respond diplomatically or affirming London’s inclusivity[4].
It's worth noting that Trump has a history of calling people and things 'losers'. However, the article does not specify who or what are the 6 people or things that Trump has called 'losers'.
