Nicolae Ceausescu and Hirohito were particularly heinous.

The Brits should have not have hosted either one.

Most Americans will understand if GB does not want to honor the likes of so-called president Donald Trump in their country.

Most Americans don't care.

They care about Trump doing something about...
  • Jobs
  • Illegal immigration
  • pointless wars of choice
  • islamic terrorism
  • dealing with polticians who sell their position for personal enrichment
  • inner city crime.

I think Trump would fit right in to the criteria for a state visit, given the UK's track records.

I still don't see the point of a State Visit though.

As mentioned before Roosevelt, Eisenhower, JFK, Reagan etc never had full state visits. Fair enough JFK was assasinated before we could think about a State Visit and Roosevelt also sadly died before the end of WW2, although he has a massive memorial in Grosvenor Square near to statues of Eisenhower and Reagan, whilst JFK has a statue in London and a memorial in Runnymede in Surrey where the Magna Carta was signed.

That petition to block our fake president now has nearly 2 million signatures. And all this time, tRump has held out the Brexit vote as a sign of his popularity.

So amusing.

American people are being insulted by people like Flynn as Trump has been chosen by the american people to lead them. An insult to trump is an insult to the american people.


Useful idiots that Putin plays like a fiddle, have used a campaign of fear mongering to divide the country, picking up where obama left off.


GB has invited many heads of state that preside over human rights violations and now they get into a lather about Trump. Holding that perspective, the GB anti trumpers can't possibly be taken seriously by any person in a state of consciousness.
Trump was not "chosen," by all Americans. Voting for a man with so much hatred in his heart is not a brilliant idea. Comey and possibly the Russians, interfered in our elections. He may have won without interference; we may never know.

Still, Trump in his short tenure has taken America's accomplishments and our integrity back at least a hundred years.

If he really wanted America great again he would resign; he is not for all Americans, just his chosen few.

If Trump had just a little British class in his bones we would be so lucky. Hate and bigotry have no place in the world.
