In an interview with The Sun, Trump said May's long-awaited blueprint for Brexit, published this week, would "probably kill" any future trade deal between the U.S. and U.K. He also said May's arch-rival Boris Johnson-who resigned as foreign secretary on Monday in protest at the blueprint-would "make a great prime minister".
But Mrs. Merkel "has benefited at home from Mr. Trump's attacks, since the USA president is deeply unpopular among the German electorate, as he is with voters across much of Western Europe", The Washington Post reported Wednesday.
Ms May also thanked the US President for his support over Russia, which Britain has blamed for a nerve agent attack on a former Russian spy in south-west England in March.
Under fire for his warm embrace of Russia's Vladimir Putin, President Donald Trump jolted the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation summit Wednesday by turning a spotlight on Germany's ties to Russian Federation and openly questioning the value of the military alliance that has defined American foreign policy for decades.
Trump, who has compared the June 2016 referendum in which a majority of British voters supported leaving the European Union to his own election that year, accused May of abandoning British voters with her Brexit plans.
The man behind the balloon said the juvenility of his idea was a match for the juvenility of the president.
In the interview with Britain's The Sun, Trump said a new trade deal with the United States was unlikely because of May's Brexit negotiation tactics.
He argued that May, who voted "Remain" in the 2016 referendum on leaving the European Union, is not up to the job of giving United Kingdom citizens the Brexit they voted for. Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson and Brexit Secretary David Davis both quit the government this week in protest. "I was very surprised and saddened that he was getting out of government".
Most of the protests against Trump have taken aim and his anti-immigrant rhetoric, as well as his administration's policy of separating undocumented parents and children who cross the USA border.
Trump described Brexit as a "very tough situation... between the borders and the entries into the countries and all of the things", saying: "The only thing I ask is that she work it out so that we can have very even trade". "The president has been consistent that he wants to see people spending more on defence in their countries and we are very pleased that we are doing exactly that".
"I think it's a travesty of British values".
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan during London Tech Week in London, on Monday. Khan, London's first Muslim mayor, has been targeted by the president repeatedly on Twitter.
As the Trumps dined with the Mays, protests in the British capital took place outside Winfield House, the residence of US Ambassador Woody Johnson. Look at what is going on in London. "I do not think it's good for Europe, and it's not good for our country", he said. "I think he has done a very bad job on terrorism", he said.
Trump told The Sun he plans to avoid the large protests that are expected during his visit, and he also addressed the 20-feet "Trump Baby" blimp that took flight over Parliament Square Friday.
