Theresa May; Trump was 'wrong' to retweet far-right posts


UK Prime Minister Theresa May has said Donald Trump was "wrong"

to retweet posts from a British far-right group.

But she stressed the "special relationship" between Britain and the US was

"in both our nations' interests" and should continue.

And she rejected calls to cancel a state visit by the US president.

Speaking on a visit to Jordan, she said: "An invitation for a state visit has

been extended and has been accepted. We have yet to set a date."

Quizzed about Mr Trump's tweets, she said: "The fact that we work together does

not mean that we're afraid to say when we think the United States has got it wrong,

and be very clear with them.

"And I'm very clear that retweeting from Britain First was the wrong thing to do."

On Wednesday the US president retweeted three videos posted by the British far-right group.

When a Downing Street spokesman said he had been "wrong" to do so the president hit back:

It makes total sense. It goes back to that LBJ quote I have rolled out a few times about picking the pockets of poor whites by telling them they are superior to dark skinned people.

To the Editor:

I am the editor of “The Dangerous Case of Donald Trump: 27 Psychiatrists and Mental Health Experts Assess a President.” We represent a much larger number of concerned mental health professionals who have come forward to warn against the president’s psychological instability and the dangers it poses. We now number in the thousands.

We are currently witnessing more than his usual state of instability — in fact, a pattern of decompensation: increasing loss of touch with reality, marked signs of volatility and unpredictable behavior, and an attraction to violence as a means of coping. These characteristics place our country and the world at extreme risk of danger.

Ordinarily, we carry out a routine process for treating people who are dangerous: containment, removal from access to weapons and an urgent evaluation. We have been unable to do so because of Mr. Trump’s status as president. But the power of the presidency and the type of arsenal he has access to should raise greater alarm, not less.

We urge the public and the lawmakers of this country to push for an urgent evaluation of the president, for which we are in the process of developing a separate but independent expert panel, capable of meeting and carrying out all medical standards of care.
