2. It is fascinating to watch the signature count increase

in real time. I would totally expect tRump to embarrass both the US and the Queen. He won't be able to help himself.

tRump wants to meet the younger royals but I doubt that they want to meet him. He made a public comment about Kate's topless photo that a photographer took and that won't endear him to William. And both William and Harry know that tRump pursued Diana (to the point where he might have been considered a stalker). He actually thought that he could land Diana (and that was never going to happen).

were dangling the prospect of a State Visit it was reported that tRump wanted to play golf with the Queen (Reagan went horseback riding with her). First of all, the Queen is 90 years old and second of all, I doubt that she even plays golf.

He doesn't want to meet Charles because Charles will most likely lecture him on global warming and the environment. I would love to be a fly on the wall to see that.

But then again the Queen might come out with a perfectly understated and ironic British comment about what rude rube he is.
