UK’s shortest-serving PM, Liz Truss, met US President Donald Trump at his Florida club. The meeting was a significant boost to her already strained political career.
Truss posted a photo of the two leaders on Twitter, saying “Right about everything”. This is not the first time she has attended the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), where right-wing populists gather.
Truss’ popularity in the UK continues to decline, with many seeing her as an increasingly marginal figure. Her efforts to revive herself through podcasting and speaking at CPAC have been unsuccessful.
In a bid to secure a safe harbour, Truss has joined forces with US right-wing leaders and even invested £500,000 in starting her own exclusive club, The Leconfield.
