London, September 3 (RHC)-- London Mayor Sadiq Khan has lashed out at U.S. President Donald Trump over golfing amid Hurricane Dorian.  Khan made the comments in an interview with Politico, asserting that remaining silent towards Trump’s attitude amounts to “disservice to Londoners.”

“He’s clearly busy dealing with a hurricane out on the golf course,” Khan said, further censuring Trump’s support for white nationalism.

“These people have been inspired by mainstream politicians who subscribe to their point of view,” said the mayor, describing the U.S. president as a “guy who amplifies racist tweets; amplifies the tweets of fascists; says things that are deeply objectionable.”

“If I don’t stand up and call that out, I think I’m doing a disservice to Londoners who chose me as their mayor.”

The American president was away visiting his Trump National Golf Club in Virginia amid the heavy storms and flash flooding caused by the deadly hurricane.  Hurricane Dorian battered the Bahamas on Sunday as it churned on an uncertain path toward the US coast where hundreds of thousands were ordered to evacuate.

Trump has declared a state of emergency for the U.S. state of Georgia as Hurricane Dorian was on its course towards Florida, North Carolina and South Carolina after battering Bahamas.

At least five people have died so far in Bahamas, according to Prime Minister Hubert Minnis, who called the hurricane "unprecedented and extensive."  “We are in the midst of a historic tragedy,” he said as cited by the Associated Press.
