And he didn’t realize any of that when the visit was being set up? He just found out about this now, a month before the openng of the embassy? Or maybe, just maybe it had something to do with the brits downgrading it to a working visit with no big parades and no visit with the queen, and the fact that the british government and people think he’s an idiot.

Trump will never get a State visit. Inviting him for one would likey net the PM little more than a vote of "no confidence " and the Royal family has a say in this if little else poltically

Or the fact that Bush made the deal to move the embassy somewhere else before Obama took office? Or that he went off on them after their terrorist attacks both on the Mayor of London and their PM? Or was it the high rise fire? His affinity for extremist racist groups here? Be honest after the shithole comments, do you really think any Briton wants to see him over there?

Damnnit THANK YOU OBAMA FOR MESSING SOMETHING ELSE UP!!! Never mind the tweets I made attacking the Mayor of London, the tweets I made going after the countries leadership, never mind the off the cuff comments I've made that were leaked and had to be spun by my press office to make me look good. Naw those aren't the reasons I know there will be a shitstorm of protests from what is supposed to be our biggest ally (which the pretty much are). The UK went through 28 Days Later (and survived), then 28 Weeks Later (and survived with our help).....does any Briton really want to go through 28 Seconds Later with Trump (the UK will flat line on this one for sure with no way back up)?

When in doubt make a BS excuse and blame Obama and not acknowledge the deal was made before Obama took office. Those pesky details that keep coming up.

"The decision to move the U.S. Embassy from its current Grosvenor Square location in the upmarket Mayfair area of London and to a site on the south bank of the Thames was agreed in 2008 under the presidency of George W. Bush." But lets not let facts stop the Trump Administration from blaming Obama.

Not to mention that it seems that we sold property in the UK that covered the costs of building the fortress / embassy.
