The State Visit 23:42 - Feb 28 with 4133 views | Fixed_It | When would be the best time to pull it? Now, or when Trump is about to board Airforce One? Or when he is half way across the Atlantic? Or do we let him land and face the protests, before telling him the King has changed his mind? Which would embarrass him most? [Post edited 28 Feb 23:44]

The State Visit on 23:55 - Feb 28 with 2948 views | Churchman | Get Charles to give him an honorary knighthood and accidentally cut his head off. Ooops, sorry Donald, does it hurt? Here’s some ointment. You can pay on the way out. Interesting question - as a convicted criminal should he be allowed in? If so, surely it should be subject to a ‘marigolds’ body search.

They could be presented with matching "'Lock up yer daughters" t-shirts as they remince about their times with mutual mate Epstein. |  |

The State Visit on 08:29 - Mar 1 with 2456 views | BudapestByBlimp | Believe the state visit should still go ahead ... Starmer and King Charles should sit down with Trump in front of the national media and start roasting him about his sexual conduct, connections with Russia, racist motives, storming of Capitol Hill, constant lies etc, etc, etc, etc. And they wouldn't even need to make things up like Trump and Vance had to! |  | |  |
The State Visit on 08:31 - Mar 1 with 2435 views | Pinewoodblue | My first thought was that the State visit wouldn’t be until 2026. My current view is that it should go ahead as soon as possible but in Canada after all Charles is also their king. |  |

Childish and petty. He is the President of the United States and he should be allowed to land - even though his visa has been revoked mid-Atlantic by an emergency act of parliament, initiated by the King, making him one of these illegal immigrant Johnnies. Then off to Rwanda with him and that empty-eyed bearded gibbon who wipes his ass. In a rubber boat. |  |

The State Visit on 11:27 - Mar 1 with 2138 views | mellowblue | Jeez, this is power play politics and finding our rather subordinate place within it. You really think emotional gesture like this helps. Balancing the need for good relations with the US , given the trade sanction/agreement possibilities with the needs of Ukraine is a delicate thing. Rash gestures play no part. Get a grip, lad. |  | |  |

Yeah, as dreadful a human being and leader he is we’ve rolled out the red carpet for worse. No doubt Trump will attract more protests than the state visit of Xi whilst he was busy putting Muslims into internment camps etc. |  | |  |

The Putin visit was galling as well. I suppose that was probably early days in his regime and we felt we could mould him into our (soft) Western ways. |  | |  |

I'll sign one that asks for the national insurance cut to be reversed and 1-2p added on to income tax to help fund our military and Ukraine if you want to create a useful one. |  |

The State Visit on 13:15 - Mar 2 with 1184 views | Churchman | Ok, Trump has an invite to meet King Charles. Well, what you do when he enters the B&Q Room at Buck house is bring in a King Charles Spaniel. Nobody specified it had to be the one with the crown. Not just any old spaniel mind. One that’s been trained to whip wigs off people’s heads Crufts style. So in ambles Mr President, KC spaniel enters through other the door at pace, nips the rug off Trumps head and in front of the world’s cameras the Donald is left grovelling around chasing after his toupee as the dog growls and shreds it under the walnut commode. Enter a flunkey who tells Trump that Charles R is busy watching Bargain Hunt and offers him a side table doily to cover up the shining bonce. World’s media rolling about with laughter, American gorilla protection squad confused and in the mayhem, the ex-leader of the free world is chucked into the street after the dog wazzes up his trouser leg. Add in a bit of Benny Hill music and all sorted. Ahhh, diplomacy… |  | |  |

You ACTUALLY think cancelling it would be a good idea. I understand 100% the moral stance and of course Trump is a dreadful person to be the leader of the free world. But he is democratically elected and to burn relations with this Psychopath would be an absolute disaster for us, for our kids and for the world as we know it. You start to disintegrate the relations between the west and NATO countries and the most powerful one of the lot and we are in big big trouble. It may sound like hyperbole but when we are broke as a nation and Europe is really struggling and potential invasions and death are happening in Europe then your moral stance poll will look a little appalling honestly. Reality is we have 4 years of this Moron and we have to use diplomacy, put our egos and moral superiority a step back and try to mend the world. |  |
