President Trump met with British Prime Minister Theresa May at the Davos Economic Forum on Thursday, and he took the opportunity to dispute recent reports that the two leaders have a frosty relationship with each other.
We have a really great relationship, Trump said. Some people dont necessarily believe that, but I can tell you I think the feeling is mutual from the standpoint that we like each other a lot.
(May did not return the compliment.)
Trump then said he wanted to correct a false rumor about the two, and he proceeded wax on about the military and economic progress the United States and Great Britain have seen recently.

In a big Bloomberg article on Trumps relationship with May, former May strategy director Chris Wilkins says that Trump turned to May and told her he believed there were parts of London that were effectively no-go areas due to the number of Islamic extremists during a meeting between the two world leaders in 2017.
Wilkins claims that May didnt let Trumps bogus talking point stand, however, and spoke up to correct him and inform him that London did not have any no-go zones.
Elsewhere in the story, Bloomberg reports that Trump berated May for the unfair treatment that he received in the U.K. press and refused to set foot in the country until she could guarantee that he would not be greeted with mass protests.
May responded to say such treatment was simply the way the British press operate, and there wasnt much she could do, Bloomberg writes. In the secure bunker underneath the prime ministers office, her advisers listened in to the call in astonishment at Trumps demand.
