Maybe a good number of other countries quickly came to their senses and placed him on a no-fly list. Ah, to dream ...

And if he did liberals would be whining about it.

He has been a little busy reversing Obamas disastrous EOs.

That's because Trump isn't actually a president.

He's just a whiny gas bag who enjoyed campaigning, can't handle criticism, and just wants to hang out at his resorts surrounded by Trump branded stuff.

The actual governing and policy thing...not his bag so much.

Meanwhile Pence and a host of others from his inner circle have flown all over the world apologizing for what Trump says and tweets. Talk about costing us money!!

Other than public relations, what is the reason to visit a foreign land?
It's not like Mr Trump hasn't been aware of the rest of the world. He probably owns property in most of the choicest spots.

That someone would feel the need to be annoyed that the president elected to execute the laws enacted by Congress did not bug out on a taxpayer funded jaunt to a foreign land is [impolite and politically incorrect expletives deleted for decorum sake].

This thread is but another approved by the agitation - propaganda wing of the Ministry of Truth.

France is going though and election cycle and Germany is gearing up for one next year. Both are dealing with extensive activity from the "alt right" or whatever you want to call Far Right parties; as such the last thing either PM would want is His Orangeness's presence to stir things up.


Italy's politics having their own upheavals, ditto really for almost every other EU nation. As such again cannot imagine a current president or prime minister of a western European nation wanting DT on their soil.


Russia? Eastern Europe? Well the bromace between Putin and DT seems to have cooled.


All this an then there is the fact DT and his instruments installed in government have made remarks ranging from nasty to threating to many EU nations. Why then would they have him?

Second, he's not only lazy, but probably scared of being on someone else's territory.

Third, he really hasn't done much of anything, so why should this be any different? If the current White House is too floundering to even cope with a children's Easter egg event - which they were going to bypass until they got all the bad press - how could the manage a presidential trip?
This ^

I've certainly never seen anyone so lazy, incurious or foul mouthed as this poser playing President.
