Trump’s first state visit to Britain coincides with political upheaval over Brexit and the impending resignation of Prime Minister Theresa May.
Tourists walk along the flag-lined Mall leading to Buckingham Palace in central London on June 2, 2019, ahead of a visit to Britain by President Trump.
Even before he left Washington, however, Trump’s now-familiar penchant for sharp insults and unsolicited advice about other countries’ politics overshadowed the planned pomp and rituals, at least in the British press.with the British tabloid the Sun, Trump was informed that Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, who married Prince Harry in May 2018, had called him “misogynistic” and “divisive” during the 2016 presidential race.
“I don't think it's going to disrupt the welcome at all because I think the other thing we've learned from the president is that you know regularly we have to agree to disagree, and there's a whole list of things that we don't agree with the administration on,” he said.
Trump jumped into British politics in a separate pre-trip interview last week, telling the Sunday Times that Britain’s next leader should make Nigel Farage, the far-right populist who had helped lead the Brexit movement, the country’s chief negotiator. Following a welcoming ceremony, Trump is scheduled to have lunch with the 92-year-old monarch. He then heads to Westminster Abbey for a cultural event and then to Clarence House for tea with Charles, Prince of Wales and heir to the throne, and his wife Camilla Bowles, Duchess of Cornwall.
Protests are expected around Buckingham Palace throughout the day. And London’s mayor, Sadiq Khan, has authorized protesters to fly a giant inflated “Baby Trump” balloon over Parliament Square.
