Boris Johnson Advocates for Trump’s Presidential Comeback

Boris Johnson, through his new memoir "Unleashed," not only defends but also supports a potential Donald J. Trump presidency, likening both of their populist appeals yet distinguishing their unique contributions.

In his memoir, "Unleashed," Boris Johnson conveys optimism regarding Donald J. Trump's possible resurgence in the Oval Office. Although often considered a populist counterpart to Trump, Johnson dismisses direct comparisons, clarifying any misleading parallels between Brexit and Trump’s MAGA movement. Speaking candidly in an interview aimed at promoting his book, Johnson positioned himself as a voice parallel to Trump, leveraging his experience while serving as the British prime minister. He urged Americans to consider the positive aspects of a Trump presidency. The interview took place at Rupert Murdoch’s News Building in London, marking a robust defense of Trump's policies across various critical issues. Johnson acknowledged the Capitol attack on January 6, labeling it as "terrible," yet quickly refocused on his supportive discourse for Trump. Through "Unleashed," readers receive a glimpse into Johnson's reflections and aspirations, sprinkled with anecdotes from his bond with Trump, underscoring an optimistic view for a Trump leadership era.
