The day before President Donald Trump warned British Prime Minister Theresa May, “don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!”, two Muslim men were arrested by British police for targeting May in an assassination plot that allegedly involved bombing 10 Downing Street and stabbing May to death.

Trump gave the warning in a to-and-fro with May on November 29 about his retweets of videos critical of radical Muslims posted by Britain First’s Jayda Fransen.
