President Trump mixed high-level diplomacy with schoolyard taunts as he kicked off his overseas visit meeting with Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace and later touring Westminster Abbey -- while sparring on the side with one of his biggest British critics, London Mayor Sadiq Khan.
The London itinerary is part of a packed overseas agenda that includes a state dinner at the palace and D-Day commemoration ceremonies.
At their initial visit to the palace early Monday morning, the president and first lady Melania Trump had a private lunch with the Queen, later inspecting a collection of artifacts including an 18th-century map of New York, historic photos of golf at St. Andrews and books about birds and George Washington. He then participated in a wreath-laying at the Grave of the Unknown Warrior at Westminster Abbey.
The visit began with formalities befitting a state visit. The Trumps were greeted by Prince Charles and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, at the palace. Trump could be seen chatting with members of the Guard of Honor as the rest of the American delegation, from a terrace, observed the elaborate arrival ceremony, complete with the playing of “The Star-Spangled Banner.” Royal gun salutes were fired from nearby Green Park and from the Tower of London.

What I don't understand is the rest of the title of the article about the London mayor.
I thought I read earlier that the royals specifically did not invite the mayor to the festivities because he may cause problems. So how is he "sparring" w President Trump?
The mayor is a muzz and hates non-muzzs. He doesn’t deserve to be taken seriously.
What business does the mayor of a city have with taunting the leader of another country?
Did we ever get the Churchill bust that was so disgracefully returned by that POS obama?
Khan wrote an article and the President took exception (in honor of the presidential visit to the UK, I’m attempting my best manners on describing that one and refraining from using the Archie Bunker quote). From the article:
“Juxtaposed against that scene, however, was an opening scrap between Trump and London Mayor Khan, who penned a critical column of the president he called a “global threat.” In the column titled, ‘It’s un-British to roll out the red carpet for Donald Trump,’ Khan listed Trump’s most controversial policies and likened them to the actions of European dictators of the 1930s and 40s.
“Before he even arrived in London, Trump fired back calling Khan the ‘twin’ of New York City’s liberal Mayor Bill de Blasio ‘except shorter.’
“Trump continued the attack Monday, calling Khan a ‘stone cold loser.’”

Yes, Trump restored it to its rightful place in the Oval Office.
Obozzo is not a fraction of the men either Churchill was or Trump is. He’s a jealous POS
Thank God it’s back. And you are right, O IS a POS. History will NOT be kind to him. Or the HILDEBEAST, or her suit-stained husband.
The Mayor blasted Trump, said he shouldn’t get a state visit. Then just before Trump touched down in the UK he put out a couple of tweets blasting back, saying Khan was stupid and a short DeBlasio, essentially.
haha that’s hilarious.
Bookmarked.
Khan is the enemy, he is attacking Pres. Trump, who is merely responding appropriately to this vicious, evil idiot.
