Welcome to Blighty Mr President.
Just to warn you the usual woke snowflakes are outraged by your visit.
And the Marxist leader of Her Majesty's Opposition has refused to meet you.
But as the official leader of our biggest friend and ally you'll be pleased to know a great many people here are delighted to see you.
We're all so bored by Brexit we need some fun in our lives.
Hopefully he can keep it together and not embarrass us. LOL, I'm not a trump hater, but I ain't no fan either.

I said that to some of my righty trump loving friends and they simply said they hired him to do a job, not a popularity contest.
And you need to have a bit more respect for the opinions of American citizens who live in this country full-time -- and who may have lived here their entire lives/most of their lives. Maybe, just maybe they know things about the US and its leadership that you don't? I know, I know, that's hard to believe, but maybe you could, like, consider that possibility?
Why did the Brits vote Brexit? I've never lived in the UK, but I "know" the economy was good and the UK wasn't at war with anyone. It was a prime destination for immigrants. It was doing fine. You just needed to take more pride in your country -- and the EU! -- old sport.
I have homes in the US and the UK and spend a fair bit of time each year in both.
I like to think I have a small understanding of both places.
What they both have in common at the moment is large numbers of citizens who feel their governments don't understand them and don't represent them.
Trump and Brexit are these people pushing back and it's magnificent to watch
Democracy in its purest form.
Joe Six-pack exercising the one legal right he has to give politicians a good kicking.
Has anyone but me noticed how the leftist loons rush in to create threads about President Trump's visits, activities so as to create a negative thread about him that will then be the main thread in which all other comments, positive ones, will then be moved to if someone starts a positive thread about the same subject?
The most powerful man in the world is visiting England and everyone watching knows they'd better mind their P's and Q's. He has their number and he doesn't mince words or play their games.
THEY should mind their P's and Q's? LOL. He's in the UK now, where people tell it like it is. He's in THEIR country.
Besides, where do you think Trump gets his tendency to not mince words? If he's at all worth his 50% Scottish blood, he'd better be prepared to deal with some criticism from the Brits. Because they're going to give it to him.
I've just turned the telly news on. President Trump seems happy enough, gabbing with various dignitaries.
He'll have a good meal tonight at a banquet. Keep him entertained, and busy. I'm watching his facial expressions, and he really seems to be enjoying himself.
Oh, good! I'm so glad. I've been very, very worried.
It's like those in the public eye want to put out their nasty comments about our leader and have no repercussions. Too bad. Life doesn't work that way in the real world.
Does anyone know what the brooch is the Queen is wearing or where it came from? Have been told that she sometimes sends clues as to her actual opinion with her brooches and jewels.

There does seem to be parallels between Trump and Brexit, at least as I understand Brexit. Trump is just a symptom of America's annoyance with the politicians and he was a reset button of sorts, whether right or wrong.
He was seen as an outsider and I think people thought he'd change things up.

Isn't there some kind of protocol when dealing with the queen? I forget but you are supposed to act a certain way around her and other protocols when addressing her.
I wonder how Trump is managing to not step on those.
