I hope they rescind the state visit invite, too. There will be demonstrations if Trump comes to the UK.

Thought it was a stupid thing for Charles to do anyway.

I absolutely don’t agree with Trumps behavior today, but to suggest there will be demonstrations if he comes to the UK is off the mark. Outside MN, a lot of the UK will be oblivious to all what’s gone on today. Not enough people will care enough to demonstrate.

StandFirm · 28/02/2025 19:55

Those two men insult a war hero on the same day that they fly (on a private jet!) the Tate bros charged with rape and human trafficking in the UK. I mean... is that what the US stands for nowadays? Defend human scum and shit on values of courage and resistance to despots? What the hell has the US come to?? They are destroying its image. It's not the land of the free anymore it's the land of fucking thugs.

Nonsense.

Of course, there will always be apathetic people who don't care about what's going on in the world until it smacks them in the face, but there are many, many people who care deeply. And they will want to make their voices heard.

That’s just not true .. it’s headline on most media outlets, and all over Social Media.

Bring him over … we’ll show him the meaning of free speech. Inflate the Baby Trump blimp

I'm wondering how this is being reported in America.

Fox News is blaming Zelensky for blowing the deal and "antagonizing" Trump.
Just watched Lindsay Graham talking about how proud he is of Trump and that China is shaking in their boots right now. 🙄

I think Trump just has business interests in Russia and Putin getting his hands on those minerals will eventually lead to more money in his pockets later down the line.

LifeExperience · 28/02/2025 19:57

bombastix · 28/02/2025 19:47

Trump can't get minerals easily. He can buy them from Putin or the Chinese. Or Canada.

Putin is probably the friendliest one of that list. Interesting times.

The US is the world's second largest producer of rare earths, having large proven deposits in Alaska, California, Wyoming and Texas. The rare earth deal with Z was a way for Ukraine to pay us back, not because we specifically need Ukraine's rare earths.

We are seeing their true colours, in case we needed any further proof. I hope Charles rescinds his invitation to Balmoral.The crowds will be out to throw things at them.

Yes, I'll be there to protest as loud as I can in my make America gay again hat.

Boodahh · 28/02/2025 20:00

Yes but voted in by Americans , trump at least. 😒

Remember the size of the protests last time? There's even more reason for them now.

MissMoneyFairy · 28/02/2025 20:04

MrsBennetsPoorNerves · 28/02/2025 19:24

Perhaps the state visit could go ahead and Charles/Camilla/William/Kate could give him a public dressing down on camera?

It could go ahead and no one turns up, a pair of vile bullies, ganging up on one man. Pathetic.

It’s all over the media today, and maybe over the weekend, but by the time Trump visits, there might be a couple of hundred protesting at the airport he lands in, but other than that I’m doubtful there will be significant numbers demonstrating on the streets. We’ve enough crap of our own going on, without climbing onboard with this event. It’s awful how the pair have treated Zelensky today, but the media will have turned its attention to something else by the time Trump visit.

ThePearlBee · 28/02/2025 20:05

@Livelovebehappy this IS crap of our own, don't you see that?
Do you think it won't affect us?

This would actually be a genius plan. Just nobody turns up anywhere he goes. It would hit him right where he really hurts.

There were demonstrations last time. I don’t see why there won’t be this time.

I'm going to steal this point for social media if I may...

smallchange · 28/02/2025 20:07

It's been said before, but they're a weak man's idea of strong men.

Totally in character for Trump to have welcomed in Tate, another tinfoil character.

I hope there's reaction from the international community because it'll be a bad look if they're allowed to get away with this behaviour without comment.

Likewise if they come to Windsor, last time Trump was here there was a small but significant protest and I took my then 8 year old to it after school.

Of course it will affect us, and any other time there might be huge numbers demonstrating, but at the moment people here are struggling to pay their mortgage, their energy bills, and getting medical care. Not sure what’s happened today will be the top of their priorities, and clearly Starmer thinks the UKs interests are with America, judging by his fawning bum licking exercise earlier this week…

or those that turn up turn their back on Trump and Vance

a show of such disrespect while saying nothing is far more powerful that placards and silly blimps

This just makes it sound like you don't really understand the wider context.

Maybe you think none of it really matters to the UK, but that doesn't mean everyone else in the UK will share your ignorance.

LoveWatchingTheSea · 28/02/2025 20:10

I’m fucking disgusted at the pair of them.
For the first time in my life I’m really worried WW3 is a real possibility

It felt like two school bullies attacking the kid who is standing up for himself.

They really are scum. And neither of them would have staying in Kiev for a day. They would have been on the first fucking flight out.

Utterly shameful.

I thought the exact same. Two bullies sticking someone's head down the toilet and yelling at him to thank them for letting him up for air once in a while.

Blueeyedmale · 28/02/2025 20:11

I was sat watching the news with my 14 year old ds we both looked at each other in disbelief.

I think that was planned by both trump and Vance poor zelensky since Russia invaded he's been so brave and they do that to him.

Trump and Vance will never even be fit enough to get down on their knees and clean zelenskys boots
