TRUMP ‘NO JACKASS’

LONDON: Fraudulent former media tycoon Conrad Black is backing Donald Trump to win the Republican Party nomination for president in 2024, claiming Mr Trump has “learnt his lessons”.

Mr Black, a Canadian national who was jailed on multiple fraud charges in 2007 and later pardoned by Mr Trump, said they were both still in touch.

“I think he has taken on board that the presidency of the United States has to be conducted with more dignity,” Mr Black said, adding: “You can’t behave like a jackass in the White House.”
