Now we’ve got a report about the big #TrumpProtest today in London to mark the #TrumpUKvisit. @realDonaldTrump stayed away, complaining the British public had made him feel “unwelcome.”
.@POTUS managed to insult his host @theresa_may within hours of arriving, after @TheSun published this interview bit.ly/2NeCOeC. He slammed her #Brexit strategy, said he would kill a trade deal, and praised her arch rival @BorisJohnson #awkward
At their joint press conference, 40 miles from London, @realDonaldTrump said he’d apologized to the PM – but also said that the recording of the interview would prove it was all #fakenews.
Back in London, protesters called today a #CarnivalOfResistance. A recent poll showed that just 11% of British people think @POTUS is doing a good job. Organizers claim 250,000 people came to show they didn’t share Theresa May’s apparent fondness for the President. #OnAssignment

.@OwenJones84, one of the organizers of @UKStopTrump, told us @theresa_may was “sucking up” to @realDonaldTrump. “Stand up to this man,” he says.
Chicago-born playwright @bonn1egreer says the British government is laying on “the full Monty” for @realDonaldTrump, including a meeting with the Queen. “That's what he wants, that's what they'll give him.”
.@POTUS said the relationship with the UK was “the highest level of special”. Asked about his meeting with Putin, he said he would bring up #meddling. “There won’t be a Perry Mason in here I don’t think but you never know what happens.”
