London Mayor to MSNBC: I "Worry" About Perception People Have of America Due to Trump

"One of the consequences of having a best friend is when you disagree with them, you got to call them out and say, ‘you know what, I think you're wrong here,'" Khan said [speaking of our two countries "special relationship"].

Khan continued on from discussing the "special relationship" Britain and the United States have to explicitly address Trump.

"We're under no illusion that your president doesn't[sic] speak for all Americans. Many, many Americans, the people on a daily basis in London, businesspeople, tourists, students, those who are artists, and many, many others, don't necessarily agree with the views of your president," Khan said.

"And why would they?" Khan continued. "In a healthy democracy, you'll always get people who disagree with the winning candidate."

The Mayor of London said he was concerned because people in all parts of the world look to America for inspiration and leadership.

"I worry about the perception people will have of your great country because of some of the things that your president may have tweeted or said elsewhere," Khan said.
