The Queen has spoken...Trump's state visit to the UK was just officially canceled (Details)

The state visit was postponed indefinitely. A source from the U.S. embassy said that there are currently no plans for a working visit.

Long live the Queen! (In England!) We proved a few hundred years ago we don't need their approval for our greatness!

On the other hand: this means President Trump doesn't get to ride in the golden carriage and you know he's going to have a crying twitter fit about that.

Long live the Queen indeed. Good for her. Considering that there's been huge protests against Trump over there, and that the man creates crap storms just about every place he goes, it sure will save them a lot of mess & bother to scale back on the trip.

Has he whined about this on Twitter yet?

Actually, it is a good thing, a good sign for Trump.....

What about this 4 month old article from theguardian covering the same topic. Trump's state visit to Britain put on hold

Boggles the mind to imagine. Pro-tip, though, if he's reading. Calling HRH "nasty" or a "loser" is probably considered poor form.

Is there anything lower he could do than what Obama and
his wife did to embarrass our country overseas?
President Obama’s biggest British gaffes

LOL! Pat you sure are a hoot. You just posted an article showing Obama sitting right beside to the Queen, reminding us that she didn't cancel HIS official state visit to the UK. Did hundreds of thousands of folks round the UK organize protests following his inaugurations?

If those are the biggest of Obama's gaffes, than bravo to him. They had to look over years worth of things, go as petty as faulting him for the gifts he gave when there'd been no complaints from those who received them. You can print that whole article up on a single page, and it covers 4 years.

Evidently he can be much lower, because President Obama was invited and President Trump...wasn't.
as an aside: I wonder what they call it when a President Trump supporter tries bringing up President Obama to deflect from something President Trump did and it just shows how much better President Obama was then President Trump?

America is a prosperous and powerful nation but it is not and never has been great. When the cancer of racism that gnaws at the soul of the USA is eradicated then, perhaps, America can become great for the first time.

"admit no evil"

Sounds like the Queen is doing just that by not admitting Trump into her presence. Great statement, Pat. You summed it up really well this time.

Well said, Jack. America has never been great, especially for minorities living in this country. Anyway, your post reminded me of the following quote by Native American artist, Vanessa Bowen.

“When Donald Trump says, ‘Make America Great Again,’ what time period is he talking about?” Bowen told ABC News last summer. “A lot of people overlook that America’s history has been built upon injustice against other racial groups, including Native American people.”

Focus on the Queen if you will. Focus on Trump if you will. Defend one, attack one. Defend the Queen. Attack the Queen. Defend Trump. Attack Trump. Follow Paul, or follow Apollos, or get us to think you "profess" to follow Christ, but only to exalt yourself. "Good, better, best,... let's never rest, until our good is better, and our better is best, and that's for the Lord." May we seek to focus on Christ, as we relate to current events, in a way that pleases Him.
