and some fun quotes from the BBC
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44802315
Speaking at the Nato summit before travelling to the UK, Mr Trump referred to Britain as a “pretty hot spot right now with a lot of resignations”.
He will meet Theresa May later, who wants a post-Brexit trade deal – days after he said the UK was in “turmoil”
It’s good to have an expert in resignations in the country
Mr Trump, who will also spend time with the Queen during his two-day working visit, said: “I think they like me a lot in the UK; I think they agree with me on immigration…
“You see what’s going on throughout the world with immigration… I think that’s why Brexit happened.”
He said the British people “voted to break it up, so I imagine that’s what they’ll do” and “Brexit is Brexit”.
Glad he got the memo on Brexit, though he must not have read the bit where your not meant to say it was about immigration
So this trip is about ticking a diplomatic box, getting a visit out of the way before its further delay became politically embarrassing.
And as working visits go, it is on the minimal side: no Downing Street barbecue, no cabinet visit, no speech to both Houses of Parliament.
The diplomatic aim will be to get through the visit without any gaffes, without upsetting the president, and without him saying anything disobliging about Brexit or a future trade deal.
The UK and the US do have a good relationship at an institutional level, in the fields of defence, security and intelligence. The tricky bit is always the politics and the personalities.
Doing all of his favourite things, walking, talking, tweeting, shaking hands and none of that complicated politics stuff
