The mayor of London called Trump a “bully”.

According to RCO News Agency, Sadiq Khan accused the American president of throwing his “poison” at England after Trump claimed that this Muslim politician was successful because there are “many immigrants” in this city.

According to the Independent, Sadiq Khan pointed out that Trump has a certain “obsession” with him, saying that he learned at the age of nine that “the best way to deal with a bully, whether in the schoolyard or in the White House, is to stand up to him.” “You don’t get any more respect than a bully by backing down and being afraid.”

“When someone attacks my city, our citizens, our values ​​and our way of life – when someone makes generalizations about followers of a particular religion – I think it’s our duty to stand up to them,” he said in an interview with Politico.

He also jokingly said that he thought Trump would focus on her after choosing “Zahran Mamdani” as the mayor of New York. Trump had called Mamdani a “communist” on the eve of the vote, while Mamdani had called Trump a “fascist” in front of him.

Sadiq Khan said: “Look at the hostility, hatred and venom coming my way from President Trump. “I almost assumed that when Zahran was elected, President Trump would attack me and Zahran at the same time and spend his time targeting her.”

“I really think he’s obsessed,” the London mayor said of Trump’s criticism of immigration in the UK. “There have been many times when he has said horrible things and I haven’t responded because I’ve really been too busy to engage in this childish bickering and pathetic name-calling.”

Trump reignited his long-standing feud with Sadiq Khan last month, saying of London’s first Muslim mayor: “He’s getting elected because a lot of people have come (to Britain). Now they vote for him.”

He also called Sadiq Khan a “terrible, evil and disgusting mayor” and said that he did “a very bad job”.
