Donald Trump just wrapped up a disastrous press conference with Prime Minister Keir Starmer as part of Donald Trump's state visit to the United Kingdom.

Donald Trump was speaking about Russia and says the whole Russia situation, not really a big threat to the United States or to the United Kingdom or Europe.

And maybe I'll have some good news in a few weeks.

Here, play this clip.

But then Donald Trump continues with his lies about the United States bringing in 17 trillion dollars in investments in eight months.

Quite literally, none of this is true at all.

He just makes up the number $17 trillion.

Let's play it.

Donald Trump is then asked a very good question by a reporter about the UK ambassador to the United States, Lord Mandelson, who was fired by the UK government.

He was removed from his position because his letters to Jeffrey Epstein in that birthday book from 2003 for Epstein's 50th birthday were revealed, and then Bloomberg had additional information

about lord mandelson emailing epstein and just saying nice things to epstein and being just helpful and protective of epstein very similar to donald trump and so the reporter asks donald trump like well how do you how do you feel about that um and watch the response here play this clip

Okay, so Donald says he does not know who that is.

Yes, you do, Donald.

Like y'all knew each other pretty well.

The White House official account back on May 8th, 2025 posted the following.

Lord Peter Mandelson, British ambassador to the US.

You've done what you said you would.

You've been true to your word.

He hung out with you in the Oval Office, not once, but I believe on multiple occasions.

And you knew him well.
