He'll be the first President since Eisenhower she hasn't met with.


The queen only meets with US presidents during their second term in office
The brits wanted to push up the meeting with Trump to be an unusual first-term state visit, partly because the queen could croak at any time and best not put it off
And they're still planning on having that state visit next year

What strawman?


Merkel was gonna get shredded in next elections, according to whom again? Oh right, it was the oh-so cultivated followers of the Republican party!

Actually she never met Lyndon Johnson while he was sitting.

Says so right in the article you linked ...at least read the things before posting the things .

The Queen would've assuredly met Johnson if she had attended JFK's funeral, but she was pregnant at the time and could not make the trip. Prince Philip did attend and met Johnson. The subsequent birth of Edward in 1964 and the raising of her other children kept her from visiting abroad regularly in the 1960's as much as other decades. She did not visit the U.S. between 1957 and 1976.

Johnson, a great traveler within the U.S., only occasionally took trips outside the country (unlike other Presidents) and never made a scheduled trip to Europe.

I've not yet met anyone from my country who doesn't think Trump is a blithering idiot. Didn't sign the petition cos if you're gonna accept a state visit from Mugabe then you should accept one from Trump with the same pomp and ceremony. Of course Trump will have to be thick-skinned as Mugabe protests were pretty wild by Brit standards. Can't imagine he'll be given any slack.

Off topic, what's it like living in the UK? Did you ever live in the US?

I've looked into how to move there so many times but it seems almost impossible. Unless you're military or know a trade that isn't already common there.
