Donald Trump just cant seem to stay away from British politics. Hes fired off comments on topics including Brexit, his low opinion of a British ambassador, and how his Trump-branded golf course in Scotland furthers U.K. relations.
So theres little surprise that the American president is playing an outsize role in Britains upcoming elections for good or bad, depending.
In Britain, more than any other country aside from the United States, Trump has sought to bolster his political allies and trash his detractors.
In so doing, he has blithely crossed traditional red lines. In late October, Trump phoned in to a talk radio show hosted by a friend, Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage, to dump on leftist Labour Party head Jeremy Corbyn.
