Apparently, these retweets displeased Theresa May because she released the following statement via her spokesperson:

"It is wrong for the President to have done this. Britain First seeks to divide communities by their use of hateful narratives that peddle lies and stoke tensions. They cause anxiety to law-abiding people. British people overwhelmingly reject the prejudiced rhetoric of the far right which is the antithesis of the values this country represents, decency, tolerance and respect."

President Trump responded to May's criticism with a tweet which reads as follows:

Radical Islamic Terrorism and America's Feedback

Firstly, radical Islamic terrorism is a subject which has engendered widespread conversation. The prevention of radical Islamic terrorism was also a central theme of President Trump's campaign. Furthermore, various video clips of the commission of violent acts by Muslims have made the rounds on social media for quite some time. Many Americans have expressed their concerns.

While the President's critics slammed his retweets of Fransen's content as the promotion of propaganda, other Americans directed more interest towards the graphic, disturbing footage:
