Trump likely just saw this Fox News report:
Outgoing Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday issued a statement of support to Britain’s ambassador to the U.S. after President Trump cut off contact with him amid the leak of diplomatic cables.
May backed ambassador Kim Darroch amid the controversy over leaked diplomatic cables in which he disparaged Trump, including calling him “inept.”
Downing Street said Darroch “continues to have the prime minister’s full support,” adding that “We have made clear to the U.S. how unfortunate this leak is” and that “the selective extracts leaked do not reflect the closeness of, and the esteem in which we hold, the relationship.”
Trump can never resist immediately hitting back.
The wacky Ambassador that the U.K. foisted upon the United States is not someone we are thrilled with, a very stupid guy. He should speak to his country, and Prime Minister May, about their failed Brexit negotiation, and not be upset with my criticism of how badly it was…

…handled. I told @theresa_may how to do that deal, but she went her own foolish way-was unable to get it done. A disaster! I don’t know the Ambassador but have been told he is a pompous fool. Tell him the USA now has the best Economy & Military anywhere in the World, by far…

….and they are both only getting bigger, better and stronger…..Thank you, Mr. President!

WATCH | @realDonaldTrump responds to Kim Darroch’s sad trashing of the U.S President: “We’re not big fans of that man. The ambassador has not served the UK well, I can tell you that. I can say things about him but I won’t bother.” 👌 pic.twitter.com/19uKEoVItD
