JOHN DICKERSON: When you talk to President Trump, does he listen?

THERESA MAY: Yes, we have very good discussions. And these are, I mean, the point of the special relationship between the United Kingdom and the United States in a sense is that we can have those frank and open discussions. And when we disagree, we will – we can say to each other we disagree and why we disagree. But at the same time, we cooperate on so much else, which is of crucial importance to us. Clearly, obviously security and defense being key to that.

DICKERSON: Is there an instance in which you think he listened to you and his behavior changed?

MAY: Well, I think that we have – we have a number of conversations about these issues. And I think we have – we've been talking about issues around trade, about the importance of NATO.…

She seems to know more about what’s in those DOJ documents than Trump or Congress. She’s scared. Trump has leverage and is probably trying to figure out how to use it, but eventually, he will declassify.

I know why the Brits are nervous about release of classified
documents from DOJ and FBI.

Steele was British, and how did he use his MI connections.
We know that Brits didn’t want Trump because he isn’t the usual pol, he could not be counted on to follow Brexit for instance.

I don’t like that Trump is cutting them slack, we should know if these are really ally’s or just people who want us to pay for their protection.

Lets reveal their actions and maybe they will be forced to change their ways.

Trump was pro-Brexit, so where the British people. You mean the British establishment didn’t want Trump?
