Former US president shared excerpt of ex-PM’s column in which he says case was ‘nakedly political’
Donald Trump expressed gratitude towards Boris Johnson for his support following Trump’s conviction in a New York court. Johnson criticized the verdict as a politically motivated attack, suggesting it might bolster Trump’s chances for re-election.
Trump, found guilty on 34 counts of falsifying records related to Stormy Daniels, thanked Johnson on social media, making Johnson the most prominent British figure to endorse Trump amid the legal turmoil. The supportive stance from Johnson may influence other UK politicians’ positions regarding the US-UK relationship, especially considering the potential implications for bilateral ties post-election.
