Trump Turns Back.

I just read that Donald Trump has called off his planned visit to London next month. He says it’s because he doesn’t like where the new American embassy has been built, but the majority view over here appears to be that he was scared of the inevitable protests. The latter seems more likely since he has demonstrated time and again that he suffers a severe problem of emotional insecurity. Whatever the reason, it’s good news for us Brits.

Emotional insecurity isn’t such a bad thing in itself, of course. I can be emotionally insecure at times; most of us can. In Trump’s case it wouldn’t be a problem if he was also a nice guy, but he isn’t. And in any event, emotional insecurity isn’t the stuff of which good presidents are made.

And now, in the interests of irony and in direct relation to the cancelled visit, I wonder whether people would mind if I used some strong language in posing a question:

Why do we have to have shithole Presidents coming here?
