Conrad Black on Donald Trump - BBC Newsnight 

Conrad Black wiped the floor with the BBC there.

3:34 - need to eat those words now.......

Conrad Black, the voice of propriety, I'd defraud shareholders but I'd never be so unprincipled to use a tax haven.

Conrad Black VERY SMART PERSON and a Trump Friend and Supporter! Wow..

This "support" of Conrad Black is bizarre, the joke's on you!

Conrad Black is an enlightened man. Once again Evan Davis comes across like a silly school girl.

This interview got him a pardon

3:40 was some INSANE foreshadowing lmao!!!!

3:39 Haha Perhaps the insurrection was inspired by this interview. It basically played out as described.

"His verbal infelicities .."!!

And Canada is ashamed of you Conrad.

Thank you Mr. Black from Idaho

🇸🇦tax plans that favor the rich are NOT good plans. what about me? Worked 40years and am homeless from healthcare expenses.

I respect Conrad Black, he always has thoughtful opinions not influenced by popular neo liberal dogma. Remember we only see the wacky sound bites from Trump that the media want to highlight. Yes I disagree with some of Trumps policies, then again I disagree with some of every politicians policies. Trump appeals to a large portion of American society that has been disenfranchised and pissed on by the elite. There is the largest gap between the rich and poor since the 19th century. I understand why Trump is popular, as he's identified the key issues bothering a huge portion of the American public. I just don't think his solutions are always well thought out. However once he has a mandate he'll have a slew of resources to address these issues and maybe more realistic non-confrontational solutions can be found.

One crook with grubby mitts on another.

Black speaks a helluva lot of sense in his view on Trump.

I,m sure this guy did time for fraud

Ex-convict.

I wonder what the right honorable Lord Black is thinking now after 5 years about what he said at 3.40 😆

Poor ol' bbc - they needed to get in a bit of those ratings going round, but then - of course, they don't get it at all.

Why is that man not in jail?????

It's funny watching all this talk about Americans cutting their "defence" budget (it should really be called an attack budget) even though Europeans would support such a policy. The only thing getting in the way is all the American neocons who love the military industrial complex themselves, but they don't bother talking about that because it's easier to blame other countries for your problems.

Conrad Black? hahahahahahahaahaha!!!!!! No cred?????

Conrad Black a guy how can see with clarity and doesn't get bogged down with petty differences and back biting, like alot of butt hurts do.

That guy could be a Bond villian

Mr potato head is a loathsome individual.

What has Conrad done with his orange jump-suit?

When did Conrad get out of prison? Apparently, he should have been inside longer.

I hope trump is our next president! #whitehousedon #nyvalues

Vote for Peace not war. Vote prosperity not mediocrity. Vote Freedom not for socialism. Vote for medical marijuana. Only 1 republican candidate will do all that. Only 1 candidate of any party will do that. Vote with your hearts but vote with your brains. Vote TRUMP 2016!

I knew Benito Mussolini. Benito Mussolini was a friend of mine and you, sir, are no Benito Mussolini!

The two men in the Video are supposedly intelligent, but their cast of opinions, about the leadership of Donald Trump, has missed the mark. The little bald headed wimp, just can't bring himself to say, "I hate Trump", but he would like to say that. But, he's a Coward & not sure how that would be taken. Trump on the other hand is not afraid of the little Cowards, with pens in their hands, because he has a Big Sword & isn't afraid to use it. If the people of America would look at what has been accomplished, despite the push back from both parties & the media, Mr Trump would get all the votes in this election. We the People know that he is praised & cursed, in the same breaths, but the bottom line equals 4 more years or FUTURE DESTRUCTION.... If the members of The Press were constrained by law, that LIES were not allowed or forgiven & accountability was awaiting some fool's misstep, most folks in the media couldn't open their mouth. I would hope that America would come to it''s senses & realize that a business man should always occupy the White House, in order keep the political games out of the White House decision making. Political chicanery should always be looked at with a juandice eye, with accountability standing at the ready, to apply pressure needed to protect the people of this country.

BBC were trying to push Trump as being like Mussolini back then, incredible

Dirty Donny went on to be prezidunce and to tweet that "...He just met the Prince of Whales".

I like Black , but really this is disappointing maybe he hopes for a Presidential pardon , but that is not like the man I am mystified

Why start the Qns negatively, why should we worry.

We do not "freeride" on the US. The UK alone has a defence budget comparable to Russia.. Not mentioning Europe as a whole.

Omg you nailed it! He's a billionaire Archie Bunker !

I am disgusted by the English at the moment . my Great Grandparents - Grandparents & Great Uncles, As did many Australians & New Zealanders fight for the British in War's 1 & 2 from the moment it was declared for this disgusting attitude you are displaying . I am ashamed of you and So would our Beloved Diggers , yes In am including England. that fought and died to get rid of such Evils. You like Trump., Well piss off your health care & pensions. It is ANZAC DAY soon . So many Australian & New Zealand lives lost. At Anzac Cove in Turkey a Muslim Country that has always been so respectful of our War Dead - Lest We Forget. I thought you were so mush better . But I do realize not everyone is the same.

well said Mr Black

a bit smug? going after the archie bunker demographic? hilarious....glad to hear mr trump isn't as crazy as he seems....

Prescient.

GO BLACK, you're putting them on the right track about Donald TRUMP2016.

Black was prosecuted by Muller, also. Both will be thus ruined.

TRUMP 2020

Sung to the tune of some jingle... "There is a lake of fire! .... The flames go higher... For everyone who lies...There will be the deep fryer! ...lal lal lal lal lal lal lalaaa!"

Archie Bunker was inarticulate but his character had real world experience in a crime ridden Democrat hellhole NYC.

Conrad dont need to confess. Because he speaks truth from his heart.

I thought he spoke very well!

Good interview.

M16s are for the upper class since 1986

THAT IS NOT TRANSPARENCY IT IS NUDITY! HAHAHHA

What town that you can see in the background is Conrad Black in?

Wow, looks and sounds so much like a younger Noam Chomsky

Thanks Conrad for your genius in supporting Trump, as my former neighbor in Montreal. In the seventies. My love to Barbara and my prayers for you in those challenging times. I was thinking of returning home but with our present leader I am reconsidering. #Trump2016 for the World.

Conrad Black, a very intelligent man, and a sensible one - great responses in this interview. And regarding the interviewer, he is not quoting properly, Donald Trump said over and over he wants to "review and update" NATO, not get out of it.

The only downside to living in America, I'll never get the chance to earn a badass title like Lord.

Well done Conrad Black.Your perceptive comments do you justice.

Conrad black👍😜

"Well I know him (Black referring to Trump) and he's ultimately sensible." Sorry, Lord Black, ​you lost us there.

Conrad Black is one well spoken man . He knows what he's talking about and doesn't cower to the media .

He should never have been granted a pardon

Smart man

We need conrad black for primeminister in CANADA.
