Trump's UK state visit downgraded, "he will not be guest of the Queen".

[kpete]

Donald Trump’s planned state visit to the UK in 2018 has been downgraded to a “working visit”, likely forming part of a multi-country tour, it has been reported.

It means the billionaire will not be a guest of the Queen, as was previously envisaged.

Theresa May’s offer of a state visit to the first-term President was greeted with the threat of mass protests by opponents.

Mr Trump’s visit will now take place without the glitz and pomp of a full state visit, the Evening Standard reported.

7. I sense an insulting tweet at the Queen coming soon...

"Cancelled my trip to England. I mean, look at that face- would you want to spend time with her? @QueenEliz old and boring anyway."

I'm joking about the tweeting, but dollars to donuts he finds some reason to cancel. If he can't get the full dog-and-pony show, he'll bail.
