Pure Quality – Boris Johnson Deals With Negative Obama / Clinton Remarks During Press Conference [Video]

When you've had a lengthy and impressive career involving putting your foot in your mouth, you sometimes have to answer some awkward questions.

Good old Boris – if Trump ever decides to take a day off from hogging headlines it’s nice to know we can rely on Johnson to step up to the plate.

You might remember our story on BJ last week (HERE), a summation of a long and storied career of putting his foot in his mouth.

Front and centre are comments he has made about world leaders, and that includes Barack Obama. Now that he’s the UK Foreign Secretary he has plenty of schmoozing to do, and plenty of music to face.

First up was a rather awkward address in London alongside US Secretary of State John Kerry, where U.S. reporters put him on the spot about ‘outright lies’ he had told about POTUS and Hillary Clinton.

Settle in and enjoy the awkwardness:

You first, no you first – and the bumbling begins from around 1:45.

So how does talking about the likes of Syria and Egypt really answer that journalist’s question? Politician talk 101, folks.
