Theresa May didn't impress so they're rolling out the queen herself (who I'm sure would prefer to be in Edinborough Palace ... or anywhere else instead of shaking hands with the shit weasel).

And to top a private audience with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God Queen of the British Isles and of Her other Realms and Territories, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith, they're giving him his very own military parade!

Hopefully the pomp and circumstance of the royal occasion will wow him and the queen won't have to bribe him with a knighthood -- or perhaps a baronage -- along with the deed to one of her palaces for him to spray paint gold and turn into a Trump hotel. (Yes, I know that Americans aren't allowed to accept foreign titles, but the orangeutan never lets rules get in his way. He'd just love to be addressed as "my lord, the President.&quot

Why do people kiss his ass like this? It only makes things worse. I wonder how the British citizens feel about this?

Second page, first is too small. Three military bands will play then he will be shown "a demonstration of the UK's military capabilities and "integrated US military training" at a defence site. No parade bwahhhahahahhhaaa
