If you had watched the whole video before blathering nonsense, you would have seen that President Trump did exactly what the Queen gestured for him to do. She indicated he should go where he did and also orchestrated where the royal guard should go.

President Trump followed what she wanted him to do, then waited for her. She NEVER followed him down the review line - she led all the way.

As I viewed the video, just as the Queen and the Trumps were to step of and pass before the troops, Trump inadvertantly turned right, which for a moment and perhaps 3 steps, placed him AHEAD of the Queen rather than beside her. He quickly realized the situation and stopped and displayed due deference to a lady who was his elder. To me, it was an innocent faux pax, and doesn’t amount to a brief flatulence in a hurricane.

NOPE! He merely went where she indicated he should go and then waited for her while she also orchestrated where the royal guard should go. The Queen led the way for the entire review and everything else.

He just did what she told him to, and I thought it was sweet. I watched the whole thing.

All reports from England suggest that the Queen and Trump got on splendidly.

The Queen believed Trump and Melania were charming and Trump was very impressed by how sharp and intelligent she remains.

England would be a far better place if the Queen were still in charge instead of the corrupt Marxist politicians they have

British still consider us their colony


HUH No they do not. I’m from there. I know a lot of people, and still have a lot of family there, and I have never heard anyone there say that crap you have just said.

The Queen be damned!

The old bat ain't old enough to remember a little dust-up that we call the Revolutionary War, or even the War of 1812...but our history remembers it well, for WE won...which means we don't bow or curtsy or any of that "Royalty" horsehit.

The old bat IS old enough to remember how WE came to the rescue of England in another little dust-up called WWII.

And if we had not...SHE would be speaking German and cleaning Frau Merkels shoes for her.

I have no use for this Blue Blood silliness...and although I don't advocate a direct insult to the old bat, I certainly do NOT want my President kowtowing to some ancient silly ritual out of the nebulous belief that some human is somehow more "worthy" simply from an accident of birth.

I'll stand and fight right along Tommy (and have), but I'll not kiss the ass (or hand) of his Queen, nor do I demand he show anything other than basic respect for my President.

President Trump did nothing that should be elevated to this level.

Had it been me, I'd of grabbed the old bat by hand and told her to get the lead out of her panties and get this silly-ass charade over with, so the adults can get to problem solving.

As opposed to monarchies as I am, I can’t help but agree with that last sentence.

You should have looked closer. The Queen motioned 2-3 times for Trump to go ahead of her.

Right on, Mayflower Madam. Don’t believe a word of it. Granted President Trump may not have “court” manners, but the Queen has loads. I bet her main job was making him and Melania comfortable and I’d bet she succeeded. I bet, too, Prez. Trump didn’t give her a tape of his speeches, like that faker Obummer. The Queen never puts a foot wrong, whereas her husband, Prince Phillip, does all the time, so she’s had plenty of practice smoothing over difficulties, and with grace. Love that woman, and her parents before her.

But they're okay with Obama not even knowing he was talking over the British national anthem. (Probably thought they were playing ?My Country 'Tis of Thee" as background music for him.

LOL I never read the Guardian. Speaking of I have just been told that the BBC is not biased and it is absurd to think it is.

How do you even argue with people that stupid/?

Well, lots of Americans DO read the Guardian. That’s one of the places where to get a feeling for what people are thinking. Same with the Daily Fail, Spectator and The Daily Telegraph.

“I bet her (Queen) main job was making him and Melania comfortable”

I’ve heard that is the true definition of a “lady”, i.e., making others feel comfortable. Not money, stuff, attitude, lineage, etc.
