This time 'Donald Trump' disembarks with the entire troop.
This time it brings Melania, Ivanka, Jared, Tiffany, Eric and Donald Jr., who
will travel on another plane behind 'Air Force One'. All of them will be shared
between the two Cadillac armored limousines, known as 'The Beast', and will
occasionally get on the 'Marine One' helicopter, guarded by the 'Osprey'
vertical takeoff aircraft, heading to Portsmouth: there will be held the
previous celebrations to the other landing, that of Normandy.
In Porstmouth, the American president will stand behind an
imposing metal fence in the port, built to "shield" the heads of
state and hated by local residents for its tremendous symbolic burden.
Something like the wall of Mexico in the south of England.
Trump will retaliate for everything he could not do a year
ago on his first visit to London, including a farewell lunch with Theresa May.
The 'premier' postponed precisely her resignation until June 7 to be able to
fulfill her duties as hostess. The American president, who must have smelled
the cake, has come to push his own version of the 'hard' Brexit: "You have
to go for the 'no agreement' and with Nigel Farage as negotiator."
Speaking to 'The Sunday Times', Trump confesses his double
admiration for' Mr. Brexit 'and by former Foreign Minister Boris Johnson:
"They are two friends of mine who have done a good job ... I like Nigel,
he's an intelligent guy and he has a lot to offer, and Boris would be an
excellent prime minister." Despite his busy schedule, the US president
does not rule out even interviewing privately with Johnson, in the middle of a
race for conservative leadership (Farage has denounced on his part that Downing
Street has vetoed his meeting with Trump).
MEETING WITH THE ROYAL FAMILY
However, the absolute priority of his self-promotion visit
will be the royal family. Trump will be received this time in the Buckingham
Palace, with all the ceremonial honors and nothing else to set foot in London
with all his family, greeted on his way with two salvoes of honor, in Green
Park and in the Tower of London.
A retinue of more than a thousand pelonas, including 150
secret agents, will tuck Trump in his comings and goings. The British police
has spared no security and plans to allocate up to 10,000 agents in a special
device during the state visit, budgeted at about 20 million euros.
As a year ago, thousands of protesters are expected to join
the protests today, at the gates of Buckingham Palace, and a day later in
Trafalgar Square. The mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, recalled in advance that
Trump speaks "like the fascists of the 20th century" and that he is
part of "a global threat against independence and privileges", composed
with Salvini, Le Pen and Farage. Over the British capital will fly a new
version of the 'Baby Trump', which will be joined this time by the giant robot
'Dumping Trump' -'made in China'- tweeting from the toilet and uttering
outbursts the style "fake news!" or "witch hunt!"
After a private lunch with the Queen, she will visit the
renowned Royal Collection with Melania. Prince Andrew will accompany them later
in his visit to Westminster Abbey. And in the afternoon, tea at five with
Prince Charles and Camilla from Cornwall at Clarence House.
Trump has put a special interest in this meeting, and Carlos
has not hidden his desire to put on the table the issue that most confronts
them: climate change. They will have the opportunity to return to a dialectical
pulse the day after, when Carlos and Camila attend the dinner of honor at the
residence of the American ambassador in Regent's Park, where the headquarters
of the American president will be installed during his stay in London.
Today at night there will be a state banquet in Buckingham,
which will be attended by Prince Enrique without the "unfriendly"
Meghan (maternity leave), as Trump himself decided to call her in statements to
The Sun. William and Kate Middleton will also be in the palace, which will
surely avoid referring to Trump's old tweet about his "topless"
photos on the French coast. Labor opposition leader Jeremy Corbyn and Liberal
Democrat leader Vince Cable have announced that they will be absent from the
state dinner for their disagreements with Trump's policies.
Although the strictly political day will be that of Tuesday, which will start with a working breakfast sponsored by Prince Andrew and economic minicumbre in the Palace of St. James, taken advantage of by Trump to convey his concern about the possible concession to the Chinese giant Huawei de part of the infrastructure of the 5G network in the United Kingdom. The American president will then be a witness and part of Theresa May's last press conference as a conservative leader in Downing Street. It is not ruled out that he takes the opportunity to interfere again in the Brexit debate.
On June 5, after the 'disembarkation' in Porstmouth, Donald Trump will transfer all the presidential machinery to Ireland. At the Shannon airport, he will meet Prime Minister Leo Varadkar in passing, although his final destination will be his golf course in Doonbeg. There he will spend two nights, including that of 'D-Day', before returning to Washington with the mission "fulfilled".
