Donald Trump has been asked to make a 'dummy run' visit to Britain

Donald Trump has been asked to make a ‘dummy’ State visit to Britain this year to show he can avoid embarrassing the Queen.

He has been invited to come for brief talks with Theresa May – but with none of the Royal pomp and circumstance he wanted.

The decision will be hailed as a victory by nearly two million people who signed a petition calling for the trip to be downgraded to spare the Queen’s blushes because of Trump’s ‘misogyny and vulgarity’.

Do you think he would consider this an honor because he gets to go twice?

With social media and Apps to advise his location?

Plus Trump has plenty of adversaries waiting for him: Anthony Baxter (You Got Trumped) and the Queen's grandsons (William and Harry) who resent how Trump stalked their mother after her divorce.

Trump will be lucky if he avoids protests after his tenure concludes when he wants to go to Turnberry.
