In a surprising turn of events, Suella Braverman, a prominent figure on the Tory right, openly declared her admiration for Donald Trump.
Speaking today, Braverman expressed that if she were American, she would vote for Trump due to his record of maintaining global safety during his presidency.
She praised his time in office from 2016 to 2020, highlighting that no new wars began under his watch.
During her guest-host appearance on LBC radio, Braverman, who is gearing up for a conservative leadership bid this autumn, admitted Trump’s stance on the 2020 election was flawed.
However, she defended his potential return to power, emphasizing his achievements in economic and foreign policy.
Despite Trump’s controversial praise of autocratic leaders like Putin and Xi Jinping, Braverman believes his presidency was marked by peace and stability.
Criticism of Kamala Harris and Identity Politics
Braverman didn’t hold back in her critique of Kamala Harris, labeling her as extremely left-wing, even more so than Bernie Sanders.
She criticized Harris for embracing what she described as divisive identity politics and radical left movements, including net zero policies and Black Lives Matter.
Tory Leadership Contest Heats Up
As the Conservative Party gears up for a leadership change, contenders are emerging.
James Cleverly has accused Braverman of dividing the party, signaling his own intent to run.
With nominations opening soon, several high-profile figures like Kemi Badenoch and Priti Patel are expected to throw their hats into the ring.
The Road to November 2
The leadership race will see the final four candidates pitch their cases at the party conference in Birmingham, with the top two going to a postal vote.
Rishi Sunak will remain as acting leader until November 2, when his successor will be announced.
Meanwhile, Cleverly and other hopefuls are preparing for what promises to be a heated contest for the Conservative leadership.
