You can go ahead and call Boris a fat sack of gooseberry fool with terrible hair and most people in the UK would just say "Yeah, ok fair enough he is a bit." whereas if you said that about Trump many Americans would act as if you just admitted to ploughing their mum for 6 hours.
I'm literally married to an American, like, she couldn't care less what anyone from any nationality says about Trump because she hates him as much as we all do. In fact, she'd encourage myself and others to slag him off because he's a national embarrassment for her. Our own daughter (dual irish/US citizen) also actively calls him stupid from listening to the wife and I talk about him. She gets offended that people perceive most/many/all Americans to be Trump supporters.
Don't get me wrong, she has friends and family on FB that would be offended but most of them couldn't care less. She's a big fan of our Leo though and does think Boris is a stoopid but not as bad as trump.
