Donald Trump says he doubts he’ll have a good relationship with British Prime Minister David Cameron if he wins the White House.
In an interview aired Monday on Good Morning Britain, Trump was asked to respond to Cameron, who said Trump’s plan to ban Muslims from entering the U.S. as “divisive, stupid and wrong.”
“Well, number one, I’m not stupid, OK? I can tell you that right now,” Trump said. “Just the opposite. Number two, in terms of divisive, I don’t think I’m a divisive person. I’m a unifier, unlike our president now, I’m a unifier.”
“Looks like we’re not going to have a very good relationship. Who knows?” Trump added. “I hope to have a good relationship with him. But it sounds like he’s not willing to address the problem either.”
Trump also responded to new London Mayor Sadiq Khan, who called Trump ignorant.
“He doesn’t know me, hasn’t met me, doesn’t know what I’m all about. I think they were very rude statements and, frankly, tell him I will remember those statements. They are very nasty statements,” Trump said, denying that he is “at war” with Khan.
“I just think it’s very rude of him. In fact it’s the opposite,” he said. “I wished him well when I heard he won, he’s a Muslim, I think it’s ignorant for him to say that.”
Khan, who is a member of the U.K’s opposition Labour Party, is now the highest-ranking Muslim official in Europe.
