"...President Donald Trump’s state visit to the U.K. will be postponed until sometime between late August and the end of September, and most likely occur when Parliament is in summer recess, according to the Guardian newspaper, which cited unidentified U.K. government officials.

The report came after House of Commons Speaker John Bercow said on Feb. 6 that he would veto any attempt to invite Trump to address Parliament. Bercow now faces a no-confidence motion.

Bercow wasn’t immediately available for comment when contacted by e-mail on the story reported by the Guardian. The speaker must be politically impartial, and once elected to the role is required to resign from his or her political party. To attempt to oust the speaker is highly unusual."

1. Give 'em that good old-fashioned republican a-hole attitude

What a spoiled brat.

The Republican 'family values' role model dodged the draft 5 freaking times, he dodges his civic responsibility year after year by not paying even a freaking penny in taxes to fix even one freaking pothole. Now he's dodging his responsibility to the people of the USA to serve them as 'head of state' and instead is proving once again that he is merely a petulant and incompetent republican 'dick of state.'

2. Good idea.

Let him come while Parliament is in recess and the Queen has decamped to Balmoral or somewhere with the entire family in tow. Maybe she'll leave Andy at home to greet the so called chief executive. If I recall correctly, he has a lot in common with the Sleaze.

5. Making friends wherever he goes (or doesn't)

Now he's threatening to withhold federal funds from California, a donor state which pays more to the feds than we get back.

The state has hired former US AG Eric Holder to go to the mats with Man Baby.

There isn't going to be any visit. Lucky for them. And us.

9. He has golf to play and impeachment to fend off

It's probably best he not leave the country now.
