Donald Trump told he won't escape the 'biggest protest in British history' by moving his state visit

Donald Trump’s state visit will be greeted by the biggest anti-racism protest in British history no matter where in the country the Government moves it to, campaigners have said.

Local politicians and activists in Birmingham reacted with anger to suggestions that the trip could be relocated to their city – and pledged to flood the streets with protesters to greet the “hateful” President.

The idea of moving the protest to avoid demonstrations in London has reportedly been suggested to the White House, with a rally at the National Exhibition Centre apparently on the cards.

Owen Jones, writer and co-founder of the group, said: “Donald Trump’s state visit will be marked by the biggest protest against racism and hatred in our country’s history.

The group Jones is referring to is the Stop Trump Coalition, formed after last month's anti-Trump protests across the UK. The article says it "enjoys support from Labour, SNP, Green and Liberal Democrat MPs – as well as the general secretaries of major trade unions, including Unison, GMB, FBU, RMT, and the TUC," and journalists and celebrities.

[Fritz Walter]

22. "Run"?

Not fucking likely.
"Waddle," maybe.

The Shit Gibbon couldn't run downhill with a pack of wolves chasing him.

Unless of course, you were referring to the runs, as in Diarrhea. http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/The+runs

2. Yuuuuge vacation sale!

Special low, low rates for UK passport holders at Trump resorts during Trump state visit!

[turbinetree]

3. Hey, Hey Ho, Ho, the world hates you dumpster don't you know

Hey, Hey Ho, Ho, release your tax returns fraud bag, don't you know




As a side note, how much did the state visit (Japanese) cost the taxpayers when you played around of golf with the Japanese Prime Minister and had him and his family stay there, instead of them staying at the Washington Embassy. How much did your Mar A Lago enterprise profit off that state visit.....................

[SCVDem]

4. If this were Pres. Obama

Faux Views would tell you EXACTLY what this costs, + a few million for hysterics.

[Kimchijeon]

53. Yep the hypocrisy is disgusting.

[Scarsdale]

5. Cost?

Money is no object now that he is spending taxpayer funds. His nude model "wife" flies in separately from NY, too. The Japanese couple were disrespected during their visit. No first lady to accompany the Japanese First Lady on a tour of DC. No president to be with the Japanese president at the Tomb of the Unknown, to lay a wreath. Low class, fake rich grifters is all the tRump family is. The nude model is not the only one in that family that lacks CLASS.

8. +1

[shenmue]

11. Amen

[murielm99]

14. My brother calls them

Trump and Tramp.

[erronis]

20. Borrowing from your brother - The Tramp and the Trump

[Alice11111]

30. Right on!

[Alice11111]

29. I kept thinking how gracious Bill Clinton would have been as 1st Gentleman. He would have treated

them special and made the visit interesting for them. Fun. He would have been a great ambassador. The Trumps acted like they had more important things to do...insecure, rude, really don't have it together enough to do this job. DT doesn't even have staff around him who are sharp enough to try to compensate.

[hedda_foil]

45. Yes, but she was such a dignified, firstladylike nude model in lesbian sex scenes.

[MontanaMama]

6. Exactly right turbintree

Faux would not miss the opportunity to point that out relentlessly. Freaking hypocrites.

[Alice11111]

31. Fox went nuts because she rode w Obama for him to speak at her rally. Her camp paid Fed govt $135k

or something to reimburse after the brutal scandal.

[TNNurse]

35. I wondered if he charged them for their rooms at Mar A Lago.

[Wounded Bear]

7. Given the size of the British Isles...

any where he goes within England is basically withing driving range. I hear they have an excellent train system also, so those who depend on mass transportation can get around pretty easily.

If he visits the Island, they'll get there.

[2naSalit]

9. He'll demand that it be held at his golf course in Scotland for the

same reasons he is at the one in FL now... complete with visqueen over the windows in the press dungeon.

[dae]

12. That's what i was thinking.

[2naSalit]

44. And they really hate him there...nt

[IrishEyes]

10. I agree. He is hated all over the UK.

Wherever he goes, there will be lots of people living there who hate him. Many people in the UK will travel to go protest him. The train system is good. I have traveled on it.

[kimbutgar]

13. He can put it off and the number of people who hate him will only increase resulting in record

Breaking numbers of protesters. That is one thing he can brag about, because of him the largest number of protester against him will be huggge!

[dae]

15. Can you imagine him meeting the Queen and giving her

one of his "power" handshakes?

[NastyRiffraff]

23. Yikes!

The Queen is known to be very polite and correct, but there could be limits!

[Tanuki]

25. I hope one of the Royal corgis breaks protocol and goes for his throat.

[smirkymonkey]

26. Oh, that would be poetry!

He hates animals. I would love to see a full on corgi on orange apeman takedown.

[ailsagirl]

38. That's yet another strike against him

Who hates animals??????

[obamanut2012]

55. He considers them unhygenic

[ailsagirl]

56. He has no soul

sold that long ago

[obamanut2012]

63. I agree

Not having certain feelings and ideas about animals, especially companion animals, is a dealbreaker with me in any type of relationnship.

[ailsagirl]

64. Absolutely, obamanut2012

I could find someone who was perfect for me, except that he didn't like animals, and it would be off.

Which is what you wrote-- I was just reiterating... for emphasis

[OxQQme]

33. Or Corgi Golden Showers on his cuffs.

Woof

[montana_hazeleyes]

41. Oh my,

they are so darn cute!

[Tanuki]

42. They look as if they know they are having their picture taken

and are smiling for the camera!

[montana_hazeleyes]

43. They do!

I can see why The Queen loves corgis so much.

[CottonBear]

51. That's a picture of Helen Mirren playing the Queen.

The corgis are cute!

[montana_hazeleyes]

58. I thought the Queen looked different in the picture, LOL!

[murielm99]

27. OMG.

What a thing to contemplate. He is just crass enough to do it.

[Fred Sanders]

16. Unpopular Trump being hated throughout the world is not making America great at all. Awful!

[zentrum]

17. Queen needs to not

.....see the Hateful one. Period.

[dixiegrrrrl]

24. I am sure she can have a Royal headache or something if needed.

and can fob it off to Prince Charles to meet, if it happens.

[dflprincess]

40. She's nearly 91 years old she can always use age as an excuse

my aunt, who is older than the queen says it's a great way to get out of doing something you don't want to do - no one dares to question it.

Though I'm also hoping to see her snub Trump, in a most regal way of course.

[hibbing]

19. That's a lot people to pay to protest n/t

[erronis]

21. Couldn't TheRump just fly in his paid crowds and thugs?

Between his personal airplane and Air Force One he should be able to increase the favorable deplorables by at least 100% - perhaps get up to 200 to cheer for him.

Oh, would the taxpayer foot that bill, too?

[Old Vet]

59. No his brexit friends could pinch in, Oh man thats gonna be some protest..........

[riversedge]

28. Kand REC

[Denzil_DC]

32. And if he comes to Scotland

to visit his two golf courses, he's sure of a REALLY warm welcome ...

[Mc Mike]

34. International pariah, biggest loser. rec, nt.

[ailsagirl]

37. All of those, Mc Mike

And more

[Mc Mike]

47. Hi, ailsa. Truly, he's the gift that keeps on giving.

The repug party's version of herpes.

[ailsagirl]

48. ARGHHHH!!

He sure is.

[Mc Mike]

50. Prez Hair Piece. nt.

[ailsagirl]

52. Sorry to do this to you but I couldn't resist

[Mc Mike]

60. That's a particularly vicious looking outbreak.

And he thinks he looks GOOD.

[erronis]

61. I used to have fish in my tank that looked like this creep

Kissing gouramis, I think they were called.

Although blood-sucking leeches might be another related species.

Poor deluded soul (not that there is one there.) Doesn't even know that he is so deficient in so many ways.

Suck it, loser.

[politicat]

62. I make wigs in a limited way, and I cannot figure out his hair.

I make dolls, and wig them rather than rooting. I get the sides and back (way too long, like a too thin, too fine, fragile, shitty mullet) but the top/front? It makes no sense.

It's not a wig, not a toupee (because the top front appears to run both forward and back at the same time, without any rooting or part).

With so much WTFery running around, this tiny, superficial thing shouldn't bother me, but it does a little.

/ends catty

[adigal]

36. Where WILL he be able to go? Russia and China, maybe? Totalitarian states.

Nowhere in Europe, it seems.

What I love is that for the rest of his hopefully not very long life, he will be like Cheney - unable to walk any street in the country, unable to visit most countries in the world. A prison made from his own hate.

[Cha]

39. Fantastic! Thank you, highplainsdem.. this will resonate across

the whole Planet.

Thank you, England!

[Stuart G]

49. Drumpf .......in Britian...?

Sad...a U.S. President..will create the greatest protest ever on that island..very sad.

[LeftishBrit]

54. Birmingham is super-central and has good transport links to many places

Just saying. If you wanted to find a place where it would be difficult for people to come along with a special little message for their visitor, Birmingham isn't the place you'd choose first.

And it's a large city with lots of people who don't like Trump, especially since he said that it was a no-go area due to all the eeeevil Muslims (ironic that he's now thinking of going there!)

[MountCleaners]

57. This will be awesome

RWNJ heads will explode when they find out he's not just opposed by "paid protesters" and liberal nutcases here.

I can't wait. It is really going to hurt their feelings.
