In response, Khan strongly condemned Trump, labeling him as &#8220;racist,&#8221; &#8220;sexist,&#8221; &#8220;misogynistic,&#8221; and &#8220;Islamophobic.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Khan, London&#8217;s frist Muslim mayor, has long opposed Trump&#8217;s policies and statements concerning Islam and immigration, including Trump&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/white-house-releases-list-of-president-trumps-accomplishments-and-it-is-historic\/\" title=\"White House Releases List of ...\u2019s Accomplishments \u2013  And It Is Historic!\">travel ban<\/a> on Muslim-majority countries. The article clarifies that Khan has never advocated for Sharia law in London, where Sharia councils exist only in an advisory capacity without official legal authority.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s remarks were part of a broader criticism of mass migration to Europe, which he warned is threatening western Europe&#8217;s stability. Khan dismissed Trump&#8217;s claims, noting that many Americans are moving to London and mocking the idea that he occupies Trump&#8217;s attention obsessively.<\/p>\n<p>the article highlights the ongoing political and ideological clash between the two figures, reflecting their contrasting views on multiculturalism, immigration, and leadership. <br \/> <!DOCTYPE html><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">London mayor calls Trump &lsquo;racist,&rsquo; &lsquo;sexist,&rsquo; and &lsquo;Islamophobic&rsquo; after president&rsquo;s criticism<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2238940\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>London Mayor <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/Sadiq-Khan\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sadiq Khan<\/a> amped up his criticism of President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Donald Trump <\/a>on Wednesday, calling him &ldquo;racist,&rdquo; &ldquo;sexist,&rdquo; &ldquo;misogynistic,&rdquo; and Islamophobic&rdquo; in response to the president&rsquo;s comments at the United Nations General Assembly.<\/p>\n<p>Trump called Khan a &ldquo;terrible mayor&rdquo; during his address before the U.N. on Tuesday, suggesting that London &ldquo;wants to go to Sharia law.&rdquo; Trump&rsquo;s comments came just after he returned home from a state visit to the United Kingdom.<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3822183\/saudi-arabia-blocks-florida-man-leaving-country-until-2026-for-social-media-posts\/\">Saudi Arabia blocks Florida man from leaving country until 2026 over his social media posts<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3822049\/gavin-newsom-temperature-trump-warns-2028-elections-canceled\/\">Newsom turns up temperature against Trump, warns 2028 elections could be canceled<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/supreme-court\/3820486\/advocates-warn-colorado-conversion-therapy-ban-supreme-court-blatant-censorship\/\">Advocates warn Colorado &#8216;conversion therapy&#8217; ban in Supreme Court case is &#8216;blatant censorship&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>The feud between the two leaders, who have vastly different political views, dates back to Trump&rsquo;s first presidential candidacy in 2016.
