Trump is hoping to take a U.K. summer swing, but it is up in the air

Although the former president’s office has not announced any upcoming trips to any of his resorts, multiple people familiar with the plans said he had been actively preparing for a visit to the U.K. soon. Though final details had not been nailed down, local officials had been amplifying security measures in anticipation, and local politicians were petitioning him not to come.

A trip to Scotland would have been Trump’s first visit out of the country since leaving the White House. He last visited the U.K. in 2019, during which he spent time at his golf resort in Doonbeg, Ireland. The former president was in the U.K. for a state visit with Queen Elizabeth II and former U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May, and met with President of France Emmanuel Macron.

1. Think he'll return to the States?...

if he goes.

5. Without a passport, he is pretty much limited to Saudi Arabia and Russia.

We could maybe make an exception if he visited The Hague.

14. I bet the Queen is turning out her lights and closing her curtains.

16. +1

10. Sounds like a setup for one of Duncanpup's jokes

As in: the swing Trump hopes to take is still up in the air. A play on the literal vs idiomatic. Perhaps unintentional, but is giving Duncanpup a run for the money.

11. Maybe they won't let him in.

[JoanofArgh]

13. I don't think they like him over there much either but he probably thinks they love him!

The Queen is probably thinking "Oh, no"

15. Why? Surely one of his brats, or Melania has told him how

much he is hated over there. Surely. Why would anyone even accompany him on that trip?
