Donald Trump endorses Boris Johnson in 2019 general election, resurfaced clip shows

Donald Trump endorsed former Conservative leader Boris Johnson in the 2019 general election, this resurfaced clip shows.

The former US president, who this week filed a legal campaign against Labour accusing it of electoral interference, appeared on Nigel Farage’s LBC show back in 2019 via telephone.

Trump tells Farage: “Boris is a fantastic man and I think he is the exact right guy for the times.”

Trump continues: “Corbyn would be so bad for your country, he’d take you in such a bad way.”
