I'm not offended, @Glory1, I just think it's a stupid advertising campaign. I do hope though, that when Cadet Bone Spurs visits the UK soon, he gets the welcome he truly deserves.
Personally @jonsie I'm going to try and avoid the news on TV as much as I can whilst he's here because I agree there'll be much kowtowing, particularly from Theresa May, which will be stomach churning. I tend to read the main news on the BBC in the early hours so I will read what stupid comment has come out of his mouth again. And there's bound to be a few, he just can't help himself.

But nothing seems to faze him, his money fixes most things. It does concern me how the American public have a different opinion on his suitability to preside over arguably the most powerful country in the world.

That's the problem his money fixes everything. And it's only some of the public that wanted to see him elected. The public vote chose Hilary. He got in through the Electoral College votes.
No President is elected on the public vote alone, they require, I think, two-thirds of Electoral College votes to become President. @Bambino will correct me if I'm wrong on the numbers required.
So the public can choose one candidate and the Electoral College choose another candidate. It's the latter who's elected. Hence you get a Trump as President, God help us.
