(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.

If I thought Trump was in the same class as those two dopes I would have moved out of the country two years ago.

“London Mayor Sadiq Khan”

That in itself is a travesty.

How the hell does ancient Anglo-Saxon territory get an Arabic name attached?

Indeed, he might actually offend Moslems.

Which isn’t bad, considering the subject.

I agree with that, 0bama was pond scum and Bush was a toadstool. Trump is light years ahead of them.

That’s correct, London Jihad Mayor.......President Trump is pro-America, pro-American and anti-New World Order.

The founding fathers despised royalty and the airs of the European aristocrats and elites. They envisioned an egalitarian society.

Fast forward to the present time. We have an entrenched aristocracy ruling us. They are the graduates of the Ivy League schools and a few other elitist universities such as Stanford, Duke, Tufts, University of Chicago. The Ivies own the Supreme Court. They dominate the largest corporations, banks, academia, journalism, and the upper echelons of the entrenched government bureaucracy.
