Obviously not as special as you if you can't understand the context.

If there was serious opposition to an Obama visit, what basis was it on?

Obama met the queen 3 times.

But opposing a visit of an American president because he's orange will be a new one. The babies need to learn some respect.

1.85 million people signed the petition saying trump shouldn't visit the country last time. Many turned out to potest in London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, Cardiff, Newcastle etc. Unlike trump, they didn't make their decisions based on a persons colour or religion

I think it might be best, on balance, to not feed the troll here.

[Byker28i]

Agreed

Today is the revised deadline that House Ways and Means Chairman Richard Neal set for the IRS to provide six years of Trump's tax returns to the Committee.

President Trump speaks at White House Easter Egg Roll: "We are completely rebuilding our military. It was very depleted as you know. A lot of the military folks can tell you."

He also said a young man told him, "Keep building that wall.”

“It’s happening. It’s being built now,” Trump said before looking up to other attendees at the annual White House Easter celebration.
“Can you believe that?” Trump said. “He's going to be a conservative some day.”

This is the easter egg occaision with young children...

Trump took multiple opportunities at Monday's Easter Egg Roll to promote his administration's accomplishments.

The president opened the proceedings by speaking to attendees from the White House balcony, flanked on one side by the first lady and the other by the Easter bunny.

“Our country is doing fantastically well,” Trump said. “Probably the best it’s ever done economically. We’re setting records on stock markets. We’re setting records with jobs."

“Regulations, low taxes, our country has never done better,” he continued. “And do we love our military? Our military is literally being completely rebuilt. We are completely rebuilding our military. It was very depleted, as you know.”

trump having a full on Twiter meltdown this morning.

For someone who considers himself 'totally exonerated', he seems very stressed.

I wonder if he has had someone read him the Mueller report?

[vonuber]

Maybe he's been spanked with it.

Nah - that would put a smile on his face.

He's going to be attending a ceremony as part of the D Day 75th Commemoration event in Portsmouth as his role of US President.
I hope any shouty objectors don't ruin that with any misplaced protests.

He has been doing it most of the weekend as well. Retweeting clips from a variety of shows which according to him are not fake news, but love to blow smoke up his arse and say what a good person he is and that the democrats are nasty people who created the Russian hoax.

Like you, for someone that is completely in the clear he does seem a bit worried by it all.

I'm not on social media but someone should tweet to him, "Do some fking work"!

The person most likely to ruin the occasion is him.

I suspect there will be. It goes with the territory when you invite Trump.

Hopefully it'll be raining and he won't want to get his hair wet.

There will be nothing done from now on as trump concentrates on obstructing any impeachment efforts against him. The calls are mounting, hence his tantrum. Many senior democrats are saying the evidence is there.

Kamala Harris: Congress should take steps towards Trump's impeachment.

Evan McMullin: Trump welcomed the Russian attack and obstructed resulting investigations, an impeachable offense.
"Trump must be held accountable. This means we must convene public hearings in Congress leading to impeachment proceedings in the House."

There's adverts on TV
Need to Impeach, the Tom Steyer-funded impeach-Trump organization, is dropping $325,000 on a new ad urging impeachmen

The ad: "Robert Mueller's report lays out a road map for impeachment proceedings against this president."


Yesterday was
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump

Isn’t it amazing that the people who were closest to me, by far, and knew the Campaign better than anyone, were never even called to testify before Mueller. The reason is that the 18 Angry Democrats knew they would all say ‘NO COLLUSION’ and only very good things!

12:31 PM - 22 Apr 2019

Until someone pointed out to him that several of the closest people to him were in jail/convicted/pled guilty

13 angry democrats has now become 18

I think any respect for Trump in his role of US President was lost a long time ago. I wouldn't have thought his evasion of serving in the military would hold him in great stead with those respecting the heroes from D-Day.

It is clear his very presence in the UK is going to rile a lot of people, so perhaps it would be better if he didn't attend rather than ruin the commemoration.

When you think what the UK & France are doing in terms of tackling climate change in comparison with many other countries, yet we have people on the streets in protest. So the opportunity to cause disruption on a much greater scale for the visit of a world leader intent on rolling back regulations introduced by his predecessor is unlikely to be passed by.

Apart from Tax Cuts, and getting some money for a border wall its a struggle to understand what they have done in the past 2 years. No real major policies have been introduced and the only success has been on growth of the economy but this is a continuation of the work done since the recession.

Tension about the #TrumpUKVisit eases after the Queen gives his designated chauffeur some last minute instructions...

They have been quite busy getting rid of those pesky regulations on safety, workers rights and the environment which are all bad for business. Should ensure lots more donations for the 2020 campaign.

Looking through the repealed environmental regulations this seems quite mind boggling:

Withdrawal of technical support documents on implementing the "social cost of carbon" for regulatory impact analyses.

The social cost of carbon is an estimate of the monetized damages caused by a one-ton increase in greenhouse gas emissions in a given year. On March 28, 2017, President Trump issued an executive order withdrawing several technical support documents related to implementing the social cost of carbon for regulatory impact analyses. The withdrawn documents were dated February 2010, May 2013, November 2013, July 2015, August 2016, and August 2016. The executive order states that, when monetizing the value of changes in greenhouse gas emissions resulting from regulations, agencies should instead follow earlier guidance from September 2003.

So basically they don't like the figures from 2010,2013,2015 & 2016 preferring to use the ones from 2003 for reporting purposes.
