She’s Blown It! POTUS Cancels UK Visit After PM May Grovels to EU, Whines Over Trump Tweets
Breitbart ^ | 12/01/17 | Jack Montgomery

Posted on 12/01/2017 5:50:03 AM PST by Enlightened1

A planned “working visit” to the United Kingdom by U.S. President Donald Trump has been cancelled following Prime Minister Theresa May’s decision to publicly upbraid him over Twitter retweets.

The prime minister said the president was “wrong” to share videos purporting to show Muslims committing acts of violence while on a visit to the Middle East, where she is attempting to curry favour with local dictators.

President Trump did not hesitate to rebuke the British politician, telling her: “Don’t focus on me, focus on the destructive Radical Islamic Terrorism that is taking place within the United Kingdom. We are doing just fine!”

News that the president has cancelled a planned “working visit” to open the new U.S. embassy in London came in the early hours of the following morning.

“The idea of a visit has obviously been floated, but not December and not January. I would not expect a Trump visit in January,” a senior U.S. diplomat told The Telegraph.

This unwelcome development comes only a little over two months since Breitbart London Editor in Chief Raheem Kassam speculated that May — who supported Remaining in the European Union in 2016, and leads a Remainer-dominated Cabinet — would attempt to manufacture a row with the Trump administration in order to sabotage Britain’s prospects outside the bloc.

“Look at the way she treated President Trump at the United Nations,” he reminded readers in a September 2017 think piece.

“Instead of using her speech to promote Britain in the world, she used it to attack President Trump on immigration and refugees, as well as harping on about climate change deals and a long-deceased Pakistani prime minister. Not a single mention of the word ‘Brexit’.”

So this is what it feels like to have a President who is a leader!

Don’t really care for the UK and their treasonous politicians who have sold their country out to the Globalists scum.

It’s no longer the country of Winston Churchill.

Or February. Or March. Or April. Or...

While all are focused on the “brexit,” they forget the “musentry,” the entry of millions of m*slims into what was once peaceful Britain.

Funny how often “leaders” avoid talking about the real problems. They much prefer distractions over solutions.

I would like to think that the important thing to come out of all of what took place this week is the large amount of free publicity Britain First gained from all of the attention and the way May sputtered away when probably she would have wanted to have kept them on the fringe.

May welcomes back ISIS Jihadists into the country while insulting POTUS. Damn fine job Madame May is doing.

Set travel warnings for UK and Londonstan. So long as they have the current prime minister and Islamic terrorist-loving mayor, their should be great concern about travel to the UK.

I'm sure she would have liked to have kept them on the fringe but the Trump re-tweet did that idea in.

Churchill was half American. I guess it is time for America to claim him as the Brits seem to have flushed his memory down the toilet loo.

I still just don't get why western governments actually work at and spend money on importing Islam to their countries? Left to their own, governments are quite content to maintain the status quo, do as little as possible to earn as much as possible, and celebrate their institutions without question?

Why do they insist on injecting radical islamists into that winning formula? It makes government have to work, expend capital, explain itself daily, expose it's calamity daily, and mop up the blood and guts each week.

It's just contrary to the nature of bureaucracies and their long term existence.

:-) I'm enjoying this.

The Brits didn't appreciate our former president Barak Obama - I love saying that - interfering with their Brexit vote.

May should learn from that mistake and stick to her own knitting.

Oh Madame May, when you get attacked again by your beloved Moslems, there will be little sympathy from me. It will be well deserved.

Even more so, you can go onto YouTube and easily dial up “No Go Zones Sweden” (or Paris or other places in Europe)
and easily see untold amounts of disturbing footage.

I think it’s probably not realistic to expect us to have a “special relationship” with a moslem country like England and be allies with Israel at the same time. We should probably pick a side.
