Trump’s tipped EU ambassador is “malevolent”, say European leaders

Mr Malloch’s comments about “taming” another “union”, after his claim that he participated in the fall of the Soviet regime, is one of the elements contributing to EU leaders’ vitriol about Donald Trump.

It isn’t just Herr Drumpf causing all the problems, you see.

Some of his lieutenants need to learn to think before speaking; otherwise the only union that will suffer any “taming” will be the States.

European Parliament leaders have condemned US President Donald Trump’s potential choice as envoy to the EU.

Businessman Ted Malloch is believed to be the favourite for the role.

In a letter, the leaders of the main parliamentary groups say he supports the dissolution of the EU and that his views reveal “outrageous malevolence”.

One of the leaders separately said that Mr Malloch, who has previously compared the bloc to the former Soviet Union, should be declared “persona non grata”.

In an interview with the BBC last month, Mr Malloch said: “I had in a previous career a diplomatic post where I helped bring down the Soviet Union. So maybe there’s another union that needs a little taming.”

    Trump and his whole set up are absolutely toxic, yet we have our stupid and desperate PM throwing herself at Trump’s feet. It seems she and her odious colleagues are willing to prostrate themselves before Trump, but are totally incapable of working alongside our decent friends and neighbours in Europe. It just doesn’t make sense.

    Does this mean the fart intends to conquer Europe and make it into another state?
