King Charles has invited Donald Trump for an unprecedented second state visit in September, scheduling the trip for three days when parliament is not sitting and removing the possibility of the US president addressing parliament.
Buckingham Palace announced on Monday that Trump would come to the UK from 17-19 September, soon after the House of Commons rises for its traditional break for the annual party conferences.
The king will host Trump and his wife, Melania, at Windsor Castle, though the palace has not yet set out any other details of the trip.
The visit is a coup for the White House, with Trump becoming the first elected politician in modern history to be granted two state visits, after his earlier one in 2019.
The king first suggested the possibility of a second such event in February, delivered in the form of a letter by Keir Starmer during a meeting in the White House.

Interesting history integration and timing loop:
Constitution Day and Citizenship Day is an American federal observance that recognizes the adoption of the United States Constitution and those who have become U.S. citizens. It is normally observed on September 17, the day in 1787 that delegates to the Constitutional Convention signed the document in Philadelphia.[1]The United States Congress designated September 17 as Constitution Day and Citizenship Day on February 29, 1952, by joint resolution (36 U.S.C. 106).[2] It begins Constitution Week in the United States, which continues through September 23.
Elizabeth II (Elizabeth Alexandra Mary; 21 April 1926 – 8 September 2022) was Queen of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms from 6 February 1952 until her death in 2022. She had been queen regnant of 32 sovereign states during her lifetime and was the monarch of 15 realms at her death. Her reign of 70 years and 214 days is the longest of any British monarch, the second-longest of any sovereign state, and the longest of any queen regnant in history.

June 14th, 2025:
Flag Day
"No Kings" Day
President Trump's 79th birthday
US Army's 250th birthday and big parade
Trooping the Colour
Trooping the Colour is a ceremonial event performed every year on Horse Guards Parade in London, United Kingdom, by regiments of Household Division, to celebrate the official birthday of the British sovereign.."that Trump would come to the UK" 😃
I loved watching. I just finished a book about Pat Nixon. Such a lovely woman.
Who cares?
A meaningless factoid.
This is the reason I turn off the sound when I am watching what remains of my beloved national pastime.
Some stupid announcer spewing stupid statistics like exactly how hard a hard hit ball was hit and then tell me where the batter ranked in hard hit balls over a certain speed.
At least Trump had the good sense not to bow down on his first visit.
Which is more than can be said for the kneeler Barry.
She sounds it. And if you haven’t been to the Nixon Presidential Library in CA, highly recommend! So worth it! Reagan’s even more which is bigger and has special exhibits as a general museum. Julie I’m aware wrote a book about Pat too!
I don’t think KingChuck would be addressing a joint session of Congress anytime soon, so as Hillary famously said….”what difference does it make?”
