Well, this is a first.



I've never seen this in my lifetime!

Our closest ally and good friend, the UK, has postponed Trump's visit to a later date because of the huge number of protesters who have promised to demonstrate against him.

Unpresidented!






Donald Trump visit to the UK 'will be rescheduled' to avoid embarrassing him 

Holding it in late summer means that parliament will be in recess – and won't be around to object


The trip had initially been scheduled to happen around June, according to a comment from the London police chief last week. It has also been suggested that the Government might look to move the visit away from London, as a way of avoiding any protests. But politicians and activists have warned the President that he won't be able to escape the "biggest protest in British history", no matter where the trip gets moved to.


LETTER FROM LONDON 

Why Britain loves to hate Donald Trump 

The Parliament debate Monday on banning the Republican shows how he has touched a raw nerve.


Trump Has Become The Most Hated Man In Scotland Since Edward Longshanks

These are our closest allies and cultural cousins. I've never witnessed this much animosity toward an American president from our friends. Yet, his far right supporters don't see him for the fool Trump is and how much of the world despises him.

President Happy Hands hasn't even scheduled the visit and he's guaranteed the largest demonstration in British history.
Must have something to do with Making America Great Again.

Meanwhile Betsy has removed a page from the Ed. department's site dealing with the rights of students with disabilities.
Betsy Boop "dodged questioning about the law last month, insisting it was up to individual states on whether to grant disabled students their educational rights, even though it’s a federal law that applies across the nation."

It's as if the Trump base doesn't have children who utilize those programs.

Too bad we can't keep him from visiting us.

Are Lord Dampnut's loyal supporters over at the Mother Ship proud of how universally hated their hero is?

What sort of excuses are they making up for this embarrassing news from our most loyal ally?

Have they blamed it on President Obama yet? Or "Moslem vermin?"

Well his children, maybe not Tiffany, though. Oh, and Melania -- but she never looks happy around him.

Jerry, I live in True Blue Massachusetts, there's no chance he'd visit here. Even our Republican governor, Charlie Baker, can't stand Trump.

Jerry Critter said...

I'm in CA so there is no chance of him coming here either. I was thinking of the whole US however.

Jerry, "I was thinking of the whole US however."

Sigh. It's too late for that.

Trump is a big pus filled boil on the American political landscape. Republicans and conservatives own him.

He is an embarrassment to our nation and to ALL the American people who think rationally. Perhaps when his approval rating sinks to 33.3% the trumpanzees will open their eyes.
