Day two of Trumps Britain trip features a protocol faux pas with the Queen, thousands of anti-Trump protestors in the streets of London, and a clumsy press conference about trade negotiations between the U.S. and the U.K.
Day #1, if you missed it:

Trump visits the U.K., prefaces his trip with put-downs toward Londons mayor Sadiq Khan, praises pro-Brexit politician Boris Johnson, and gets a less-than-presidential welcome from Parliament and the royals.

(258,847 posts)Every single news broadcast I've caught in the past two days have been reporting on them - not to mention the comedy shows! And we know that they have news in the U.K. so this is breaking local news for them! If Trump is such a TV junkie, especially for reports about himself, he couldn't possibly have missed it!

(258,847 posts)He may have been 239 lbs. at one time in his life, but that was a long time ago. And given his habit of overlooking bills - I read right here on DU about one time when he suggested that just saying he'd patronized a business was payment enough - who would want to deal with him??
