Some citizens stand blindly by this man. He is rich, and some Americans admire this. They look at his plane, and his fancy homes, and his trophy wife. They can't see the wood for the trees. He is not America's saviour. He is just another grifter conning his marks.

He gives no respect to anyone. He comes to my country, and tries to undermine our PM in a newspaper article, and then smiles at her face, saying how much he loves her. What do we do in return? Fly a blimp that shows him as a screaming spoiled baby, and laugh at him. I think that's not much to worry about.

I can't rep you again yet, but well said.


Yeah those crowds were soooooo little....

The Trump Baby Blimp is a riot.
But that being said, I am glad there are people somewhere in the world who still stand up for Democracy and Decency. I salute you London!

Not if Trump has his way. He's doing everything he can to destroy that friendship.

But it appears that Britain understand the U.S. is under siege right now by an imbecile and his followers and seem willing to wait this disaster out with we sane Americans.

Now that's friendship.

Oh please, you just sound ridiculous and so far out in left field with your statements, you hardly have any credibility left. Anything you say at this point doesn't even matter any more.

JackF, I have seen that map again and again, and it is very misleading, as it shows results by land mass, and not actual population. If you look for images adjusted for population, you will get a very different result.

Here is one example:

LOL. There is nothing more preposterous than a cultist telling someone else they have no credibility. The jokes just write themselves.

You summarized the situation eloquently.

Gawd, I admire that old girl. One of the richest women in the world, and still doing her duty for her country.

No sign of Phil though. Maybe he said, "no way am I talking with that dotard......".......
That's what i thought. Sit in a comfy chair with a glass of scotch and a book, or listen to an idiot blather on about how this would be a nice place to build a hotel.

Sorry luv, you're on your own.

Quite the contrary, how glorious this is for the United States....no one cares if a President or Prime Minister from any other country shows up.

Trump is shaking up the Establishments around the world.

BTW, I've never been to Great Britain but I spent a lot of time in Italy and met many British tourists there and found them to be some of the most interesting and polite people I've ever come across anywhere. I once was on a bus tour to Florence and most people on the tour were English. I had a blast.

The Brits can’t even agree about Brexit and many government officials have resigned in the last month.

Americans are not even safe in England so think twice and Croatia and other former Eastern Block countries like Hungary are way nicer to visit and more safe!

Let the Brits admire dictators and see how long they will love their hate for a good person. I feel very offended by the actions of the mayor of London and will not travel there until he is gone!
If Hitler showed up with his Nationalist Socialists he would be hailed a hero....all he'd have to say is I hate Trump.
