A planned “working visit” to the United Kingdom by U.S. President Donald Trump has been cancelled following Prime Minister Theresa May’s decision to publicly upbraid him over Twitter retweets.
The prime minister said the president was “wrong” to share videos purporting to show Muslims committing acts of violence while on a visit to the Middle East, where she is attempting to curry favour with local dictators.
President Trump did not hesitate to rebuke the British politician, telling her: “Don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!”
News that the president has cancelled a planned “working visit” to open the new U.S. embassy in London came in the early hours of the following morning.
“The idea of a visit has obviously been floated, but not December and not January. I would not expect a Trump visit in January,” a senior U.S. diplomat told The Telegraph.
This unwelcome development comes only a little over two months since Breitbart London Editor in Chief Raheem Kassam speculated that May — who supported Remaining in the European Union in 2016, and leads a Remainer-dominated Cabinet — would attempt to manufacture a row with the Trump administration in order to sabotage Britain’s prospects outside the bloc.
“Look at the way she treated President Trump at the United Nations,” he reminded readers in a September 2017 think piece.
“Instead of using her speech to promote Britain in the world, she used it to attack President Trump on immigration and refugees, as well as harping on about climate change deals and a long-deceased Pakistani prime minister. Not a single mention of the word ‘Brexit’.”

Brits drink warm beer because Jaguar builds refrigerators too.
May is a risk adverse and careerist politician who is flailing around at the moment. She is way to orthodox to ever get along with POTUS. I could see this break up coming for months.
Apparently some or most of the video was fake or misrepresentations?
We already did. Congress conferred honorary American citizenship on Churchill, the first since Lafayette, iirc.
Or Margaret Thatcher.
To push the roadster fast enough to pop the clutch when Lucas fails.
Let those Muslim backers go it on there own and see how far down the hole they go.
The absolute stupidity of those idiots has astounded me for years. Somehow they are still under the impression they are an Empire. Wake up Brits you are a little country going down the drain and picking uo speed.
The President needs to give May a choice: either follow through with Brexit and get serious about your muslim problem, at which point the US can have a trade agreement to help the UK if the Euroclowns get nasty; or forget Brexit and forget about a special economic relationship with the United States. May is a true British “wet”, or as we call them in Canada - a Red Tory. She is bungling the Brexit negotiations and doubling down on stupidity by jailing critics of islam instead of rooting out islamic hate mongers. Britain is doomed.
The UK clock is ticking and when the clock stops the caliphate will be in charge.
Bring it Don! MAGA!
The British are simply incapable of self-rule. They were trained, bred and cultivated to follow orders and defer to their 'betters'. They don't have the right to free speech - never did. The crown has a long history of executing dissenters. Up until the early 1800s, the GB legal code provided capital punishment for hundreds of offenses, some as minor as clipping coins, or poaching a rabbit. They were told to march by the millions into machine gun fire during WWI, and did so without a whimper.
The common Englishmen is so unimpressive in both stature and demeanor, that they are the only country that was never able to mount an effective revolution against their monarchy. When you see a photo of a taller, better looking, better in shape 'Englishmen', what you're really seeing is an image of the Nordic/German nobility.
I've been to Europe/England many times - lived there for a few yeas as a teenager. The USA is truly the only place on earth that is capable of self-rule. We are bigger, we are more aggressive, we have more testosterone, and our core stock wasn't eliminated in two world wars.
Half a league, half a league,
Half a league onward,
All in the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
“Forward, the Light Brigade!
Charge for the guns!” he said.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
II
“Forward, the Light Brigade!”
Was there a man dismayed?
Not though the soldier knew
Someone had blundered.
Theirs not to make reply,
Theirs not to reason why,
Theirs but to do and die.
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
WINNING!
She is no Thatcher!
Agreed!

'Downton Abbey' really captures the class differences quite well. The squirrely, subservient servants, and the dignified, restrained upper class. Anyone from the lower classes with any 'nads left GB long ago for the US, Australia, et al if they had a chance. Those who remained were/are wimps. It's why they are getting rolled by the Muzzies, and will be Islamic sex slaves within a couple of generations.
That was very interesting, thank you.
My own 10th great-grandfather left England for North Carolina before 1725.
-Specifics- on what was fake?
The engineers have not yet figured out where they should leak oil.
Or where to install the SU carburetor.

Well, I did forget to measure the dipsticks in the carburetors this morning again."
