Trump seems to like blaming Obama for anything. I don't like Trump but he really should have the guts to open his country's new Embassy.

Welcome to Britain in the 21st century- welcome Islamic hate-preachers with open arms, pour out onto the streets to defy the democratic process of Brexit and attack a President of the US who dares to speak his mind and put his nation first. Next thing we know they will be actively recruiting emotionally unstable persons, islamists and homosexuals into the army in an attempt to become more 'inclusive'... You really can't beat progress, can you.
SAUDI ARABIA
The President was welcomed with a bouquet of flowers at King Khalid International Airport in the capital Riyadh. As he arrived, he was flanked by horsemen carrying Saudi and American flags. He even held King Salman's hand as he was welcomed by the Saudi Royal Court.
ISRAEL
Prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his wife Sara welcomed the President and First Lady Melania to their 'palace'. Mr Netanyahu said they had the house painted especially for the visit, and he gave the Trumps a 150-year-old bottle of wine as a gift.
FRANCE
Mr Trump's 24-hour visit was topped off with a military parade on Bastille Day. Mr Trump, who was guest of honour at the celebrations, enthusiastically applauded the soldiers and tanks on the Champs Elysees. He later shared a 29-second handshake with French president Emmanuel Macron.
POLAND
An enthusiastic reception as people were bussed in to Warsaw and chanted 'Donald Trump' throughout his speech.
GERMANY
The reception was not as warm, with protesters lining the streets as the President attended the G20 summit.
JAPAN
Mr Trump was welcomed with an elaborate palace ceremony and a round of golf with one of the country's champion players.
SOUTH KOREA
President Moon Jae-in repeatedly invoked Mr Trump's campaign slogan by saying he was 'making America great again'
CHINA
President Xi Jinping personally showed Mr Trump around the Imperial Palace.
UK
In the Commons this week, Labour frontbencher Liz McInnes urged the Government to withdraw the invitation for a state visit, calling it 'wretched'. She said it should be scrapped to 'save Her Majesty from that unpleasant-sounding ordeal'.
The prospect of mass protests were raised last month after Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn urged his followers to turn out in force if Mr Trump visited the UK to send him a 'clear message'.
More than a million people signed a petition last year calling for the state visit to be cancelled.
Labour MP Stephen Doughty said on Twitter: 'Reason Donald Trump cancelled trip to London is that we are not a big fan of his racist, sexist, unthinking behaviour.
'Big protests if he came to cut ribbon. He wanted the red carpet treatment and cheering crowds - NO!'
Liberal Democrat Foreign Affairs spokesperson Jo Swinson said: 'News that Trump has thrown his toys out of the pram and cancelled his trip to the UK will be welcomed by all of us who reject his abhorrent views.
Labour MP Chuka Umunna said it was 'very welcome he is not coming any more', adding: 'He runs counter to British values.'
In reply to Mr Trump's tweet today, former Labour leader Ed Miliband posted: 'Nope it's because nobody wanted you to come. And you got the message.'
Mr Trump was also scheduled to hold talks with Mrs May in No 10, with February 26 and 27 marked in the diary. Downing Street had hoped to confirm the dates this week.

Possibly he has got news of the mass mooning plan?

I think the mooning protest is a brilliant idea.
The last thing we need are a lot of violent demonstrations, which just gives ammunition to Trump and his followers.
Make the guy look an ass (so to speak). Even better, let him do it himself: no one does it better :-)
Trump will go wherever he's going to be pampered and flattered. Whether it is M Macron or the dictators of Saudi Arabia, Russia or China. If a state visit was announced for the spring he'd be here like a shot.
