Donald Trump’s been retweeting Katie Hopkins again – only 4 replies you need
In today’s Twitter news, Donald Trump’s been retweeting Katie Hopkins again.
The so-called president was so excited by what Hopkins had to say (he presumably adores their shared Apprentice heritage) that he retweeted this.
God-willing / jihadi-failing I am going to be alive to see
Trump in the White House
Boris in Number 10
Netanyahu building Israel
Bolsanaro, Salvini, Orban, Kaczyński, & the Right Minded bringing strength in depthWhat a time to be alive
The fightback by proud nations is on

What a time to be alive indeed!
And we’re grateful to the good people of the HuffPost for their lowdown on 4 of those European leaders she mentions there.
Bolsanaro, a populist leader of Brazil is a vocal opponent of same-sex marriage, abortion, and immigration
Salvini, the deputy prime minister of Italy, called for Roma people to be expelled from the country
Orban, the authoritarian prime minister of Hungary, restricted free speech and said white Europeans are being replaced by migrants from Africa and the Middle East
Kaczynski, a Polish minister, called LGBT people a ‘threat’ to Poland.
And a few of our favourite responses

Isn’t Katie Hopkins that British lady who gets upset when she can’t be as bigoted as she’d like?

Trump is amplifying Katie Hopkins, a vile bigot. She called refugees & migrants “cockroaches” who were “feral humans” that were “spreading like the norovirus.” And he’s endorsing authoritarian populists, including Bolsonaro, who has advocated for torture & state-sponsored murder. pic.twitter.com/HBVlIzKmyE

It didn’t end well for the so-called president last time he did this sort of thing, when Flight of the Conchords’ Jermaine Clement had the perfect response.
