Trump State Visit to UK on Hold.

Trump would do well to keep to authoritarian countries where protests are outlawed.

Is that a prediction for his 2020 US re-election campaign? ;)

The planned State Visit has been postponed at the request of the POTUS who shows an unusual degree of insight by not wishing to come if he will meet large-scale protests. Don't hold your breath, Donny!

He'll meet with authoritarian country heads but won't meet with leaders of the U.K. And insults our allies. Never have been ashamed of a president like I am now.
 
As usual, the Brits are fair weather friends.

So the British should take away people's right to protest just so Trump wants to visit? The onus is on Trump here.

You make it sound this decision is because of a problem with the UK not Trump.

And that is correct. But, I didn't say anyone's rights should be abolished.

How is this in anyway the UK's fault? It is 100% Trump being an egomaniac.

Hell is that supposed to mean?
Your boy DeeJay cancels his visit so that means Brits are fair-weather friends?
 


Trump may have better luck with regimes that think like his regime. Civilized people aren't fans of Trump.

Until the UK gets it's terrorist problem under control, I don't think the US President should visit there.

3 attacks in 3 months is a bit much for such a small country.

The Brits are fair weather friends because Trump canceled his visit?

Okay.
 
Let me get this correct, the CIC will not go to the UK for fear of large scale protest. Yet, the CIC sends are young women and men into harms way with the wave of a pen. D Trump is what he grabs, a *****. Congrats Trumpsters, you elected the snowflake of all blizzards, should have figured ol bone spurs has no backbone, just a bully pulpit.

I have confidence the Special Relationship will weather this storm. I don't believe are UK friends will hold Trump against us, unless the Liar in Chief gets a (gulp) second term.

The UK is not a small country, it has 65 million people and the reason cited in the story is that he does not want to come because the public do not like him. He is being an egomaniac. Both the UK and the Secret Service can keep Trump safe, that is not the issue. Presidents have visited Iraq, they can handle the UK.
