UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has canceled a trip to the US planned for next month after a furious phone call from President Donald Trump in which Trump slammed down the phone on the prime minister.
Johnson had been due to visit Washington last month but repeatedly delayed the trip after a series of rows with the president over Iran, Huawei, and a rejected request by the prime minister to extradite the wife of a US diplomat.

(10,095 posts)questionable loans and illegal construction project kickbacks, violation of US bribery laws with his deals in other countries, and possibly investments in international prostitution rings and sex trafficking operations. Just a few possibilities I can think of related to his businesses. I suspect Putin also has some tapes of more personal activities that would not reflect well on the president of the US.
