How will Trump and the White House spin it if he is not allowed to speak to English Parliament?

If the red carpet to London and Downing Street are denied to him -- Would it be the fault of Clinton? Obama? The Democrats? The various news agencies?

Will he blame himself? (Just kidding there!)

And how about if other countries also blackball him? as they have every right to do so, giving his ignorant and uncaring approach to being the President of the United States.

Any thoughts on this?

I think I read that somewhere. I'm surprised the Queen hasn't disinvited him after the Princess Diana remarks were unearthed (Little Fingers bragging that he could have "nailed" her.)

Statesmen visit each other's countries often, wined and dined, but not necessarily allowed to speak to the Congress or Parliament.
