Time for afternoon tea with Charles! President Trump and Melania are welcomed to Clarence House after spectacular reception at Buckingham Palace including a 21-gun salute and lunch with the Queen

Trump UK state visit: US President and First Lady Melania receive gun salute | Daily Mail Online

There is a debate on social media regarding whether the President fist bumped Her Majesty.

Hopefully Buckingham Palace will learn from Tokyo and not serve him alcohol at the state banquet tonight.

Do people shake the Queen’s hand?

I would think he gets tutored on protocol but he does have memory problems so he may forget

What happened in Tokyo with alcohol? Didn’t he own a vineyard at one time?

 

[floridagrrl]

I was going to ask what happened in Tokyo too

I thought it was pretty well known that he doesn’t drink alcohol at all

EDIT

OK, I googled lol
I get it now

He is tee-total and usually has alcohol free drinks even on State visits. In Tokyo he was given a glass of champers and apparently 'grimaced'

Hm. But yet he can own a vineyard.

Haha - this happens to me a lot, husband doesn't have a clue when it comes to gift-buying!

US President Donald Trump was left scratching his head when asked if he recognised a statue of a horse at Buckingham Palace - not realising it was his gift to the Queen.

Britain's head of state took the president and First Lady Melania Trump around an exhibition of American artefacts, items reflecting Mr Trump's Scottish heritage and love of golf, and documents and photos relating to royal visits to the US.

But when they came across a thoroughbred in polished pewter, the US leader did not know the artwork was his gift to the Queen when they met in July last year - yet Mrs Trump did.

On Sky news, there is video of delivery of Dominoes and Subway sandwiches. Can this be for real?

Everything That Happened During Trump’s U.K. State Visit

Trump's tweets just before landing in London:

@ SadiqKhan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly “nasty” to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me...... ....Kahn reminds me very much of our very dumb and incompetent Mayor of NYC, de Blasio, who has also done a terrible job - only half his height. In any event, I look forward to being a great friend to the United Kingdom, and am looking very much forward to my visit. Landing now!

I'd love to be able to respond to this properly but it would get deleted.

It's still insane to me that a president can act like that.

The Queen looked nice today as always.

Yes. But I have seen French women who have multiple children that have a perfect shape.

I wonder why she does not get a tummy tuck. I would if I had a spare few thousand dollars

She doesn't need tummy surgery. I think she has a very feminine figure.

Ivanka is a pretty girl but that peplum outfit not so much (and this photo really confused me for a second!!

Yes if she offers it.

Here they all are at the state banquet. Wonder if the dress code was white? The Queen looks tiny next to the Pres!

Trump praises 'common values' at state banquet
