45 cancels his visit to London - amid fears he won't be welcome



sources say the US leader has grown increasingly annoyed that “the red carpet treatment” was being scaled back as resentment against his arrival grew.It is understood his place in opening the embassy will now be taken by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, America’s most senior foreign diplomat.

Especially after he opened his shithole today and spewed his verbal diarrhea.

Not talking about the queen and prince Phillip!!

We need to show these types of photos all the time to remind Americans what a real president acts like.

He more than likely would see demonstrations and protests at every turn. He could never deal with that, so he will just let Rex have that trip. As usual, the Bully in Chief is actually a sniveling coward. Let that resonate in your brain. He really is a coward. The first person who has the nerve to confront him, Face to Face, will probably win the Nobel Prize. I think there would be a huge collective cheer from grateful people everywhere to see him put in his place.
