Oh this is glorious.
At Buckingham Palace. Fair to say, there’s a pretty poor turnout for Trump pic.twitter.com/RiQyrCwuBG

I’m sure it’s the pouring rain keeping them away.
Me: “Is Trump coming down this way?”
Police officer: “I believe so, sir.”
“Not a great turnout, is it?”
“I couldn’t possibly say, sir… [grins]”
“I was just remembering Obama’s visit…”

I want to invite that police officer over for brandy and chocolate.
This is as close as I got to Trump. To be honest, that was much closer than I wanted to be. pic.twitter.com/FUdMFWfT2p

Look at the crowd roaring approbation.
Me: “You lot look really busy. Were you expecting more people?”
Police officer: “A few more.”
Me: “It’s quite funny… Depending on your viewpoint, of course.”
Police officer: “Trust me, it’s very funny.” pic.twitter.com/s20m6S7JNn

That officer gets the brandy and chocolate too.
Trump was waving at the 7 people who had gathered. Although I think they were just waiting to cross the road, which had been blocked off.
Melania looked very bored.
Ps. He really does have tiny hands. pic.twitter.com/OkT7vruOV6

I hope he’s sobbing himself to sleep rather than taking it out on Melania.

Ha!
Hahaha, “more police officers than onlookers” !
Only hoping there was some truth to what my Mother always said, “Ignore them and they’ll go away”.
When Bush visited the UK he went to the Prime Minister’s (Blair’s) house, which was in a small town a few miles from here with a population of just over 5000. The news footage showed there were way more people there than turned out to see Trump in the heart of London. The streets were packed.
There’s an official Trump protest in London today, I can’t wait to compare and contrast the photos with yesterday’s turnout.
