The privileges Donald Trump is being denied on his UK state visit

[CatWoman]

Donald Trump is missing out on privileges offered to other heads of state, including his predecessor Barack Obama, during his visit the UK.

Trump and First Lady Melania arrive on June 3 for a state visit. During his three-day visit, the president will attend a banquet at Buckingham Palace, have a private tea with Charles, lay a wreath at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior in Westminster Abbey and attend events to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

However, the US President has been denied additional perks attached to a state visit.

Unlike Obama, the current President has not been asked make an address in the Houses of Parliament.

He will also not participate in a carriage ride to Buckingham Palace, a decision attributed to ‘security concerns’.

And Mr Trump won’t stay in Buckingham Palace during his three-day visit due to renovation work.

1. He is not worthy.

[dalton99a]

2. .

[Vinca]

7. He's such a bloody pig.

[Submariner]

10. I hope the Queen Mother has trained one or more of her corgi's to bite him

[Aristus]

33. She's not the Queen Mother. She's the Queen.

The Queen Mother died a number of years ago.

[Submariner]

41. My bad

I assumed she adopted the mantle as the new Queen Mother after her Mom passed.

[Aristus]

42. No.

If Princess Diana was still alive and she and Charles were still married, she would become the Queen when Elizabeth died, and then Queen Mother when William takes the throne.

As it stands, I don't know when the UK will have another Queen Mother with that title.

[Submariner]

46. Oh, I was way off the mark

Thanks for that education in succession protocol.

That doesn't change my feelings though. I still hope one of her corgi's bite him.

[Aristus]

47. You and me both.

right in Trump's tiny little dick...

[FakeNoose]

43. Any gentleman would have offered her an arm, or otherwise walked behind her

But no, not Fat Donny.

[samnsara]

3. i wonder who he will walk in front of this time?

[tblue37]

28. It's like when he walked ahead of Melania on Inauguration day, not even glancing back

to see where she was or how she was. He is similarly oblivious to Queen Elizabeth in this picture.

[democrank]

4. What an arrogant, thoughtless ass Trump is.

I hope everyone and their mother comes out to protest Trump and that “Be Best” enabler next to him.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

37. Trump will say something "nasty" about Camilla comparing her to Melania....

"Look what I got, Charlie! Wouldn't you want this instead?" FAKE kidneys and all.

[ginnyinWI]

5. Convenient, that renovation work!

I wish he wouldn't go. He'll just embarrass us in some way.

[MyOwnPeace]

6. I wish they wouldn't let him in!

And I hope Harry cold-cocks him upside the head for being a crude, ignorant ass-hole!!!

[DeminPennswoods]

8. I wish the Queen would tell him she's retaking

her fomer colony.

[smirkymonkey]

9. +1000

[ProudMNDemocrat]

11. I expect Harry to tell Trump...."Go Fuck yourself"......

He loves Meghan and his new son so much. He will defend her to Trump's face and there is not a damn thing the Queen, Prince Charles, or Trump can do about it.

Trump attacks a Royal, Trump is persona non grata as far as the rest of the civilized world is concerned. Trump won't be able to live that humiliation down. Prince Harry will be be labeled a hero and even more popular with the British people.

12. Charles has been vocal about global warming and climate change

... since the 1980s. I hope the tea turns nasty over Dumbasses denial of the settled science. And Charles can be quite a prick - and doesn’t suffer fools lightly. Although Trump is so stupid that he probably won’t recognize that Charles thinks he’s an idiot and is talking down to him. But I would pay good money to be a fly on the wall.

[MBS]

16. + 1000

Please make room for another fly on the wall, too! God, I'd love to witness this encounter.
Thanks for mentioning Charles' environmental advocacy. IMHO, people focus too much on Charles' "uncoolness" (that is, traditional) style, and not enough on the fact that in some realms he's actually been a bit ahead of the curve. I've also noticed that he's been a consistent advocate for the environment for decades, and on all fronts, too (organic agricultural and gardening practices on his own property, no less; climate change, conservation, etc).
I have high hopes that he will be as condescending as possible with that piece of trash.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

34. as well as to the "clueless Be-Best" stepford wife of his.....

Look for her to wear something outlandish once again.

[pdsimdars]

13. Can't you just see him stomping his tiny little feet with smoke coming out of his ears?

Whaaaaaaaaaa! I wanna carriage ride! Obama got one! Waaaaaaaaa!
Poor baby.

[mwooldri]

19. He could get a paddy wagon ride I suppose.

And stay at Her Majesty's Pleasure.... (British slang for jail)

[3catwoman3]

21. Did President Obama get a carriage ride?

I don't recall. Couldn't find anything on Google.

[Leith]

22. I found a link

and, whoa! it's good! It's from April, 2017.

While President Obama chose not to ride in such a carriage during his U.K. visit, other world leaders — including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Chinese President Xi Jinping — have taken such carriage rides during state visits.

There's a pic at the link showing Putin in the carriage with the queen.

[3catwoman3]

23. Pootie getting one when he doesn't...

...will probably piss off Trump even more than If President Obama had gotten one.

[Leith]

27. Yeah, I hope so...

44. I'm pretty sure this is the carriage that Chump wants to ride in

But it's not gonna happen! This historic carriage is only used for special-special occasions (like the Queen's Jubilee celebration) and it's not bullet-proof. It cannot hold up the extra weight of the President's bodyguards, etc. Not made for that, it would collapse for sure.

[not fooled]

14. Hahahahahaha

no carriage ride! I heard that meant a lot to the orange asshole.

These days, I'll take what I can get.

And, can't wait to see footage of the protests. And the signs! The sarcasm and humor should be proportionate to red don's assholery, which means over the top.

[MBS]

17. Me, too!! n/t

[Kurt V.]

20. yep. the carriage ride denied. ha!

[CatWoman]

15. As Trump's state visit looms, Britain seems a reluctant host

Britain is gearing up for this week’s state visit by President Trump as only Britain can do. There will be an official greeting ceremony at Buckingham Palace, a lavish banquet with the queen’s best china, a gun salute fired from Green Park and the Tower of London.

It will all be suitably over-the-top.

But there is also a sense that British officials are slightly less than enthusiastic about this particular round of state visit grandeur.

Some of the traditional trappings — such as staying over at Buckingham Palace, a royal welcome at the Horse Guards Parade and a gold carriage procession down the Mall — are notably absent.

The British government, preoccupied with its own domestic turmoil, has long seemed wary about hosting Trump for a state visit.

For one thing, it took a long time to pencil a date in the diary.

Only a year earlier, Parliament had gone so far as to stage a formal debate over whether to ban Trump from setting foot on British soil. For three hours, lawmakers sounded off on a then-candidate they described as a racist, a misogynist and “a dangerous fool.”

[ProudMNDemocrat]

35. Look for displays of granduer on the 4th of July....

Trump will think the Fourth is all about him, rather our declaration of independence from Great Britian.

Christ! That is in a month already.

[paleotn]

18. I wouldn't be a bit surprised...

if shitler pulls the plug on the whole thing last minute.

[Duppers]

25. That'd be great. They really don't want him there.

[flotsam]

24. And Mr Trump won't stay in Buckingham Palace during his three-day visit due to renovation work.

Queen "I don't like to lie...
Maintenance head "Quite right, I'll have the Beefeaters repaint the guardhouse."

[ProudLib72]

38. I was thinking it was due to the renovation work they would have to do afterwards

Orange everywhere. Depends overflowing the trashcans and shoved in the toilets. Smell of old toadstool.

[kimbutgar]

26. In the banquet hall in Buckingham Palace where his state dinner will be held

When you enter the hall there are some great photos of the many times President Obama had state dinners. I hope fat donnie sees them in their glory!

I was fortunate to visit Buckingham palace on a tour in 2015. They really liked President Obama!

[ProudMNDemocrat]

36. I envision a McDonald's Kid Meal on a Covered Silver Platter.....

just for Donnie from the Queen.

[dhol82]

29. Damn, does this now mean that the UK will become our

wortest, most awful, bigly nasty country worthy of trump farts?
Waiting for the tweets.

[Blue Owl]

30. Womp womp, old chap

n/t

[magicarpet]

32. Dump three milkshakes on his head,.. trDump will feel better.

[kskiska]

39. He once said he wanted to play golf with the Queen.

I guess that's out.

[Ilsa]

40. The faux pas of the last visit have come home to roost.

The Queen will not be outside doing an inspection of her troops (?) along with trump and Prince Charles because of his inability to follow protocol, according to the Morning Joe crew.

[smirkymonkey]

45. Ha ha ha!

Face it Donny, they hate and disrespect you! Nobody wants you or your grifting spawn there.
