White House denies that Trump is planning to sneak into Britain to avoid protests

Melania-Trump-rejects-Donald-s-hand-again-808463The White House and Downing Street poured cold water on Monday on news reports that President Trump was considering a quick visit to Britain next week, a possibility that had excited the many Britons eager to protest his presence in the country.

According to British newspapers including The Times of London and The Guardian, which cited unidentified British government sources, the White House had suggested that Mr. Trump could stop by Downing Street after visiting Turnberry, one of his golf resorts in Scotland, during a trip to Europe.

Mr. Trump would visit Britain between the Group of 20 summit meeting in Hamburg on Friday and Saturday and celebrations for Bastille Day in France on July 14.

Unless Mr. Trump were to decide to return to Washington and then fly back to Europe, those two commitments would leave him with several days to kill, a long time in politics.Mr. Trump might come to Downing Street to meet Prime Minister Theresa May for informal talks as part of any such visit, but final confirmation would probably happen just 24 hours before, to minimize the risk of disruption, the newspapers reported. Or he might visit Mrs. May at the prime minister’s country residence, Chequers, which is about 40 miles northwest of London and more isolated.

But Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the deputy White House press secretary, described the reports as “not accurate” and said there were no plans for Mr. Trump to go to Britain this month.

James Slack, a spokesman for Mrs. May, said, “I am not aware of any plans for the president to visit the U.K. in the next few weeks.”

Mrs. May traveled to Washington to meet with Mr. Trump soon after his inauguration and extended an invitation from Queen Elizabeth II for a state visit this year.

The rapidity of that invitation was criticized. In February, opponents of Mr. Trump, including some members of Parliament and trade unions, vowed to hold the largest demonstrations in British history during any state visit by Mr. Trump.

The invitation stands, but given the probability of major protests during such a formal visit, the trip appeared to have been postponed and was not mentioned last month in the Queen’s Speech to Parliament, which sets out the government’s program.

            Zion (hebräisch ציון) is a place-name often used as a synonym for Jerusalem.

            Kannibal dose’t care about your folks yearning for Jerusalem.

            May our eyes behold your return in mercy to Zion.
            Zion, in a poetic way, “designated Jerusalem since the earliest times,” and the land of Israel and the Jewish nation, which had grown together with it.
            The name had been a longing for “Jewish rebirth” since the loss of this country in the Roman era.
            This ideal had accompanied the scattered Jewish people for 2000 years and established the Zionism.
            The latter had made a conscious effort of thought and action from this “emotional agitation” and thus a “saving idea.”

            Kannibal has nothing to yearning for, tragic life for a Christian.

            Mount Sion is in the Arabian Peninsula, not present-day Palestine. But that is of little relevance since the Jebusites – not the Hebrews – built their city, Jerusalem.

        I highly doubt. He surrounded himself with the very people he called out during his campaign. The only way the privately owned/ran “Federal” Reserve will be abolished is for the American people to 1) care (tough one), 2) educate themselves (even tougher) and 3) elect politicians who have taken an affidavit to restore the right to print money back to the US Treasury – I’ll skip the devastating effect on the inflation, value of the dollar and subsequent quality of life. As of now, the “Fed” prints at will and lends it at interest to the US government. Considering that it’s backed by absolutely nothing but thin air, wars are conducted and sustained (for as long as possible or until another one starts) to keep the military-industrial complex busy and the petro-dollar afloat.
