(CNN)Donald Trump is not worthy of his upcoming ceremonial state visit to Britain, suggested London Mayor Sadiq Khan on Friday, saying that the US President is not "in the same class" as his predecessors.

Most US presidents have not made state visits to the UK—the exceptions are Barack Obama, who visited in 2011 and George W. Bush, who visited in 2003. "History tells us only two [US] Presidents have had a state visit," Khan said during an interview on British radio station LBC. "President Trump is not in the same class as those two." "Of course we should have a close relationship with the president of the USA, but we shouldn't be rolling out the red carpet, we shouldn't have a state banquet," Sadiq added.

“we shouldn’t be rolling out the red carpet, we shouldn’t have a state banquet,”

That will be a tough pill for the mayor to swallow.

Is this the same yahoo who declared that living with terrorism was part of living in a big city? Yeah, Bush and BO were in that class, too.
