I watch her every weekday to see what her mood of the day is.

Yesterday it was a spiderweb and spider.

Other times it's been a scorpion, or a witch on a broom, and on and on and on.

She is brilliant.

On Trump’s arrival she wore a brooch that was a gift from Barack and Michelle Obama in 2011.

For tea with the Trumps she was wearing the brooch her mother wore to her father’s STATE FUNERAL.

On the day of the banquet the Queen wore the Sapphire Jubilee Brooch, a gift from Canada to celebrate her 65th year on the throne. This was the same day that Trump left the UK ahead of his summit with Russian President Putin in Helsinki.



Did the Queen make a dig at Trump with her brooches during his UK visit?

Royal fans have suggested that Queen Elizabeth II carefully picked her bling to make a subtle statement against the controversial president.
