In a bombshell revelation, former UK Ambassador to the US Sir Kim Darroch has lifted the lid on Donald Trump's explosive behaviour during their Oval Office meetings. The diplomatic veteran shared startling details in an interview with broadcaster Iain Dale, painting a picture of chaotic scenes at the heart of American power.
The Explosive Interview
Speaking on LBC radio, Sir Kim described how President Trump would frequently erupt in anger during meetings, with staffers often scrambling to calm him down. "The atmosphere could change in an instant," Darroch revealed. "One moment we'd be discussing policy, the next he'd be raging about some perceived slight."
Diplomatic Fallout
The revelations come years after Darroch's controversial resignation in 2019, following the leak of diplomatic cables where he described the Trump administration as "inept". The new disclosures are likely to reignite debate about the challenges of diplomacy during the Trump era.
"What surprised me most," Darroch continued, "was how thin-skinned he could be about media coverage. We'd often spend more time discussing headlines than actual policy."
Behind Closed Doors
The former ambassador painted a vivid picture of Oval Office dynamics:
- Trump's unpredictable mood swings
- Staff walking on eggshells
- Policy discussions derailed by personal grievances
- The challenge of maintaining diplomatic decorum
Political analysts suggest these revelations may influence how historians assess the Trump presidency, particularly its impact on international relations.
