His Friend Jim

In a bombastic address to a conservative rally outside Washington on Friday, Trump criticised longtime US allies France, Sweden and Germany, and defended his crackdown on immigrants.

Singling out the French capital, which has been the target of terrorist attacks by Islamic militants in recent years, he quoted a friend “Jim”, who he claimed refuses to visit the city, saying “Paris is no longer Paris”.

That sounds like something every two-bit hick would say about something he knows nothing about: "My buddy syas..."

Besides, we all know T-Rump has no friends. Could "Jim" be the alter ego of "John Miller" (aka "John Barron") - T-Rump's imaginary publicist? Perhaps "Jim" could make a phone call to some reporter to vouch for his existence.
“They are unfriendly comments,” [Paris mayor Anne] Hidalgo said on Monday during a visit to Tokyo. “As the president of France said, this is not something big countries say to each other.

“No one points out that a lot of crime in big US cities linked to the open sale of guns is a plague that takes many lives.”
Well, perhaps they should.

If you have never read the interview that "John Miller" gave to a Post reporter, it's a hoot.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
