    Now the Speaker of the House of Commons speaks out about Mr Trump's visit

    Or rather, that he opposes any invitation that might be given for Mr Trump to address Parliament.

    Most unusual for a Speaker to be so forthright!

    Don't blame him. Wish we could stop Trump from speaking... at least for a few days. The continued drama and, supposed, crises is wearing thin.

    Doesn't that go along with gaslighting and narcissism? Just endless, relentless, wear you down kind of stuff?

    People​ say that, but then they complained when he took a weekend off.

    Well, part of that complaining was that Trump had said he would not vacation as president. And apparently he played some golf. In the past, he had criticized Obama for playing golf while he was president.

    It may take our allies some time to adjust from our previous lead-from-behind decline management policy to our new random-insult treaties-are-just-an-opening-position policy.

    A revelation is not what I would call him!
