In a cache of leaked diplomatic cables, the British ambassador to Washington described the White House as “uniquely dysfunctional” and warned his counterparts back home that President Donald Tump was “inept” and “insecure” and that his administration could collapse in “disgrace.”
In the leaked briefs and memos, the British ambassador, Sir Kim Darroch, worried that Trump might be in debt to “dodgy Russians.” He also claimed that Trump could wreck the world trade system and that his administration might go to war with Iran.
In one cable, Darroch wrote, “We don’t really believe this Administration is going to become substantially more normal; less dysfunctional; less unpredictable; less faction riven; less diplomatically clumsy and inept.”
