I was reading a story from an online site based in the UK regarding how the shitgibbon’s (another term I love that I picked up from an online UK discussion about the orange one) ambassador to the UK disagreed with his version of our new embassy in London. Facts like who ordered the old one sold and the new one’s location, why the site is better than the old site, etc. If you remember, he used this as an excuse to postpone his visit to London once again.
As always, the best part of any online news site emanating from the UK are the comments. The following discussion cracked me up. It also gives me hope that this latest debacle in our history is not being blamed on the majority of good American citizens, just the idiot himself. Our allies do seem to know him (and his insecurities) well, however.
So what if Trump were faced with millions of protesters on a trip to London? He would just tell all his dumb supporters back home that all these people had come to greet him, adore him and that it was the greatest show of affection abroad for an American President of all time. Huckleberry Sanders would echo that statement at the White House press briefings and Trumpists would believe him, of course. Has Trump finally lost his political instinct for getting through to his base support?
Except everybody would turn their backs on him. The videos would show a sort of negative Mexican wave ahead of the motorcade and US media would gleefully report it.
My wife, usually fairly apolitical, has said we would be on a bus to London, from Dundee, to protest if he came. If my wife feels like that millions would indeed be possible.
I'm a leftwing Scottish CND member and Yes campaigner. I'm more likely to join a demo up here but if she's up for a London protest I'm in. I'd probably wear a kilt and have the coppers afraid I was going to lift it in the traditional gesture of disrespect.

steady now, old chap. If you did that you might make him feel even more insecure, and who knows what he might do then.
Insecure, indeed!
Just wanted to share. If it gave me a chuckle and a glimmer of hope so possibly others will benefit from a laugh also, if at least for a microsecond.
