How very dare he!

The US elected Trump as they did Obama and others who visited, not always popular, at UK invitation.
Live with it.
However there will be many in the USA for whom UK opinions will not be foremost in their minds but that their president will be their for the sixth of June to honour the war dead and a day they would never again see their loved ones. Not just the U S but many other countries who gave up their sons and daughters in the fight for peace.So is it not possible for those so bitter ,and appear to hold such hatred that the US president is to be on our shores, just for once put their bitterness to one side and give thanks to the US people and the sacrifice they and many others made to keep Europe free .

I'm with him wrt Boris. Think he'd make a great PM. The water cannon was a good idea too.

I'd swap Trump and Farage for Michele and Meghan any day of the week QQ and please can we have a decent human being in exchange for bumbling Boris .

pinkjj27 while I don't agree with the sentiment no leaders of anything over 65, your examples for over and under are hardly fair. There are plenty of young people who are capable of being good leaders. I'm sure we could find many examples of older leaders who don't warrant their positions.

Oh gosh, no leaders of anything over 65? That rules out Nelson Mandela, Mohandas Gandhi, Mother Tereasa, The queen, Winston Churchill, The Pope and Many Many more. Maybe we should give younger people a chance to lead, like Katie Price, The Kardashian, Chelsea Handler or Gordon Ramsay age 52. Or maybe not. I rest my case.

I feel so sorry for the Queen, this little figure, with the huge pompous man walking beside her,but she will be taller than him with eloquence and diplomacy.

Not the greatest human being but our country is doing well. The Obamas were lovely but does that mean we thrived in that administration? That's when all of the racial animosity reared its head

Calendar Girl is right it is a sweeping comment to say nobody over age 65 should be a leader.

Trump IS awful, but he's been invited here so why insult him?!! We've entertained many dreadful heads of state over the years with courtesy and diplomatic good manners, far worse than Trump, so why resort to childish balloons and insulting protests? What difference will any of it make except to expose the people of this country for the hypocrites we are?!

Trump is singing the praises of Boris totally unaware of the comments Boris made about him a while back....

qq why pick on the two woman rather than two politicians? I am not sure your comparison cuts the mustard.

urmstongram It isn't just the "lefties" that have an issue with Trump and his racist, sexist language and his combative approach to other countries. But if you choose to characterise the issue in such a way, it could more easily be said that the ultra right are the people who admire Trump.

I fully support Mr Trump and Mr Farage. I'm not sure whether I trust Boris to deliver a proper Brexit; that remains to be seen if he is voted leader of the Conservative Party. I have read that Michelle Obama can be quite nasty behind the scenes, the same for Meghan. There's usually good and bad in everyone, but what you see is what you get with Donald, whereas the two ladies seem to put on a facade.

I don't like Trump one bit and I don't see what Brexit has to do with him. I had better not switch the TV on when he comes to visit or I might be tempted to smash it! Ugh! I pity the Queen who has to even be near him,

He was asked a question by a journalist. What was he meant to do just say "no comment" ? He's a human and as such he's allowed an opinion the same as the rest of us. It's not like he's grabbing May by the collar and shoving Johnson into no. 10. That would be interfering.

So he's arrogant, sexist and doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut. We've welcomed heads of state from other countries who are much worse than he is, and who have done much worse things. Countries where they chop people's hands off, execute people, where the people live in abject poverty while the ruling classes enjoy more luxury than we can imagine, earned off the backs of the poor. Why do we discriminate?

Hopefully the British politians will take his endorsements into consideration and as a result vote for OTHER candidates. Anyone approved by Trump is probably not fit to hold office.

Of course there are ladies and gentlemen who like Trump . He is a handsome big tall chunk ! His physique is augmented by beautifully made suits, machismo, and the sort of self confidence that comes only with established social position. No wonder he is so adored .

Abbey, you say "Why pick on Trump?" The office of potus confers a lot of power on to one individual. Potus is what Potus does. Trump has done unwise and inefficient, let alone immoral.

Can anyone else remember this silly man & the equally silly Vince McMahon chasing each other around a wrestling ring.
Sooo glad I do not live in America though at the moment sometimes wish I didnt live here.
Never happy are we??

My goodness what a ‘right on’ group this is.

Everything about that man gives me the creeps! I thought that he hung on to his wife because he was a bit unsteady on his feet at first, but then decided that he is trying to present a united front and does she look like she is enjoying it? Not at all! I wonder if after his term of office if they will still be together ?
I was reading that he will be just about bringing everything in 2s with him - 2 jumbo jets ( Airforce 1), 2 armoured limos, ( 2 transporters to bring them) 2 helicopters plus numerous security personnel - London and Plymouth will be being scoured by them as we speak. Then that is before the cost of OUR police force while he is here!

I like Trump. I like Farage, which is why I don't fit in with the progressive left wing agenda here. Live with it.

Its been said before, Obama suck his nose in . So have a myriad of "celebs" . I didn't see anyone on this site complain.

I don't personally care what Trump thinks or says. It doesn't affect my liking for Farage or my dislike of May for example.

I do think we need to remember he is here now because this is the anniversary of D Day. WE have been friends with the USA a long time.

There is no need to disrespect the office of Potus , no matter who is in it. Remember, he was democratically elected. ( which is more than can be said for much of what is going on in this tin pot country of ours right now). We have hosted a bunch of terrorists and despots on state visits. Why pick on trump?

Wonder what is cost for the Obama visits? No mention of that.

Trump's security for his 3 day visit is costing us £14 million. I can think of better ways to spend it.
