During the initial press availability, President Trump welcomes British Prime Minister Keir Starmer to the oval office.
As part of the initial discussion, PM Starmer delivered a letter from King Charles III inviting President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump to a state dinner at Windsor. President Trump accepted the invitation.
On the issue of a Ukraine-Russia ceasefire and negotiated peace deal, President Trump is non-committal to the U.S participating in a peacekeeping force, should that be the determined course of action. President Trump again affirms how open lines of communication with Russian President Vladimir Putin is critical to stop the bloodshed and get to a place where a ceasefire is possible.
President Trump affirmed the upcoming round of tariffs are going forward on schedule both in North America and on the reciprocal tariffs that come later in April. WATCH:
.

Starmer was sure impressed with the invitation. PDJT probably remembers how snooty Charles mocked him about climate change during the last State dinner. Well the winds of change have arrived. The pretending is over.
Has Charles ever looked in the mirror? Charles should never mock anyone. His personality matches his physical appearance to boot.
Dont ever forget the testimony of Charles spanking Camilla in the mud amongst the pigs while his WIFE Diana was waiting at home for him.
What excuse did he give for his lateness? The climate wasnt right for my return?
Scrubbed almost from the internet.
Imagine choosing that old war horse over the obvious talents of Diana.
Is Camilla a female from birth?
One must ask.
I prefer Dan Bongino’s saying: Cutesy time is over.
Charles focussed on what the climate might be like in the future when the UK is entirely Muslim.
Imagine the eye-watering Aroma 2050
Whew!
No American will ever forget that the queen had to repeatedly motion for her family to join the parade to dinner.
Our President and our First Lady were the epitome of First class. A beautiful couple that made me proud to be an American.
God bless America….
No. Troops. I know Trump knows this. But the lunatics running our government have wanted troops in Ukraine for 10+ years. This would be a dream come true for the lunatics.
Starmer knows that the Russian Red Line against European forces in Ukraine under any circumstances is about as bright as it can be.
By offering to cross this Red Line, Starmer is giving President Putin strong incentive to keep the war going. He also is setting up President Trump to re-escalate U.S. support for Ukraine because Putin won’t be reasonable.
Same for Macron and France.
Even Erdogan and Turkey have started playing this game.
I think they all know how easy it would be to escalate something if US troops were put there, and someone decided to shoot a missile at a company of soldiers killing many, and blaming the Russians.
I think President Trump knows the same thing.
Trump is smart enough to avoid a Lebanon, I hope.
I could have been clearer. It’s about convincing Trump to back an outcome — European troops (not American troops) in Ukraine after the fighting stops. It’s about getting him to do this now, well before actual negotiations over Ukraine start.
This increases Putin’s resistance to a deal because any NATO troops in Ukraine would cross Russia’s Red Line.
So, in this scenario, the talks go nowhere, Trump gets frustrated, the Europeans say: see we told you so, Putin is being unreasonable as always, so why don’t you ramp up U.S. support for Ukraine again to, you know, properly exercise your leverage.
That’s what I see Starmer and Macron doing. They are playing pysch games to increase the difficulty setting on fruitful negotiations. That’s it.
And to avoid another Vietnam. American troops were sent there to “help” the damn French. Then France left and we got stuck with it. No More!!
I would advise our President to not go to the UK.
Any visit by PDJT would give an air of legitimacy and relevance to what is an awful government that has zero respect for freedom of speech.
I’d wait until they elect someone who’s worth a sh!t
concur….
here is my suggestion: send Vance in advance with every major news covering and let him give the same speech that he have to the EU/Nato
GB is not the same ally in prior conflict.
its become a cancer to THE PEOPLE…
I concur as well: time to show the King who the Boss is.
President Trump gains nothing by being drawn into their snake pit.
Make it clear that the “special relationship” is terminated.
The “special relationship” is conditional.
On the condition that the UK respect freedom of speech, freedom of ALL religious expression, not just Islam. And, freedom from imported 3rd world violence.
Formerly Great Britain needs to get her act together.
Yep. Trump needs to rename it “Just OK Britain”
I am not interested in conditional. Cut the Brits out.
We are done with them.
And from the looks of it, they are done with themselves as well.
Just saw your comment after I write mine. Well said.

Offer to buy Canada from him?
Perhaps make it plain that the relationship is conditional. We have very little free speech at the moment. Criticism of the govt is being punished by the police who won’t enforce their beloved ‘hate speech’ laws on the weekly Jew hating marches but will arrest people for ‘thought crime’ comments online.
its key to read the book, art of the deal. President Trump most value trait is his willingness to engage even the most vile people, directly, look them in the eye, shake their hands even and meanwhile hold a position of leverage that he can use to broker a favorable deal. And it’s not cheating either. He’s just the bigger man, with bigger plans. His deals (as we are about to find out with Russia and Ukraine) almost always satisfy Nash game theory in practice. Everyone involved comes out as beneficiaries, rather than a zero sum game.
this is how he has been using tariffs for instance. He will ultimately win and it actually helps Canada and Mexico. It’s not obvious to those who have not read his book or followed his marvelous deals. I recommend both.
likewise, he has invited Elon Musk and his team of Uber smart and ambitious doge force. It’s not obvious now, but it’s not merely savings and a step back away from the brink of total economic collapse from the obvious national debt crisis, but it is also going to be used as a lever to get Congress, and many states to start cooperating, which is ultimately in their own best interests…politically, financially, and rationally.
his “hammer” is what makes President Trump effective. It looks like chaos, and that is somewhat the purpose and design …to put legacy powers off balance and in uncertainty. And once the weight of the threats, some actually realized, he draws them back and makes deals.
He is a very smart man and we should stop pretending he doesn’t have a bigger plan that will make America Great Again and many other nations states and their people more secure, through healthy commerce and peace.
He will absolutely make mistakes….but we did not elect the man to be Superman or perfect or a priest. Just effective on the big ticket items. And so far, I give him a B++++. More to follow…
God Bless America
Thank you for your thoughtful and insightful comments. I agree. We are facing a national debt crisis which could very well cause an economic collapse. Trump is doing his best in handlng what is a hugh undertaking. He needs our prayers.
Vance pinned Starmer’s ears back most adroitly on the free speech issue. One shudders to think that his diametric opposite, DeSantis, once had the inside track to PDJT’s VP slot.
Absolutely concur.
This rehearsed gesture from Starmer is pandering to Trump’s ego. JD or nothing.
Besides, British food? Pass.
Sadly there are no dissenting voices in the UK parliament or media when it comes to being on the side of peace. Nigel is as bad as the other parties on Ukraine.
Yes, in my opinion, Farage is sometimes poorly advised.
Trouble is we have an overabundance of public toilets and plenty of customers for them – all involved in politics in Britain/Europe
Oh contraire!
Let us use the “remembered” words of the illustrious Sir Humphrey Appleby of Yes Minister fame when explaining the UK’s joining the EU.
If we remained on the outside, we could do nothing, but if we joined them we could turn the Germans against the French the French against the Italians (etc) and make a complete mess of the whole thing!
I agree. Trip needs to be in 2026 at the earliest.
President Trump should write an old fashioned letter to King Chucky saying he will gladly accept the invitation AFTER he and Putin sign the Ukraine Peace agreement (no US troops involved, EU security force, No NATO for Ukraine).
Also, tell Chucky (aka MI6, CIA) to put a muzzle on Boris Johnson this time.
The Windsor’s have been there a long time.
Too long.
I can see that Londonstan mayor’s head exploding and screaming RRRRRacist! Go get’em Mr. President!!!
I am not impressed enough to be willing to condone anything the UK has been doing recently. Is it supposed to be a flattering game-changer? I hope not.
Oh I’m sure that Charlie thinks it’s some kind of big deal to invite one of those colonials to come to England and hob nob with the King. 1776
My entire perception re UK Royalty changed recently when I watched a youtube thing illustrating how shocked the Brits were when they began to understand how literally BIG the United States is, and how many of the states are larger than all of the UK. The existing royalty is kind of overkill for such a small country, even bearing in mind their storied history around the world: that’s in the rearview mirror.
One of the little facts was this: Great Britain is about the size of Oregon. Here’s just one link on the subject:
https://www.greatbritainmighty.com/what-us-state-is-the-size-of-great-britain-comparable/
I live in central Oregon. Somehow I can’t imagine Oregon (at any point in its history) investing in the large and endless brouhaha of royal stuff from border to border.
He does not have a 1/10th the cache’ that the Elizabeth did.
When the queen was alive, President Trump mentioned he would like to see the golf course at Balmoral. They didn’t invite him. I hope he gets to see it this time. He more than deserves a bit of fun.
Starmer is trying con President Trump into continue funding billions in the Ukraine War.
The head of the EU has already promised over a billion dollars to Ukraine for them to keep the war going knowing full well that Trump and Putin are trying to arrange a peace deal. The UK is back under the thumb of the EU via Starmer’s recent announcement.
Sir Keir Stalin.
I don’t like the Leftist Prime Minister of Great Britain or his policies and politics.
He is a wannabe (and maybe successful) dictator. They are now arresting Christian pensioners up in Scotland for being Christian. The Caliphate has arrived.
The current Labour govt and the Blob encouraging every authoritarian action would put the Stasi to shame.
Folks in Britain, Scotland as well as Ireland knows full well what this cross-legging Starmer is like. His role in giving away Chagos Islands to Mauritius and paying Mauritius to take it too. That puts a great risk to the West as the trading route via Cape of Good Hope gets cut. Nobody wanted this to happen only Starmer and his cohorts.
Absolutely nuts! What happens to the USA base on the Chagos? Is Mauritius going to take the CCP coin for Chagos?
You are aware that the UK government forcibly removed all native inhabitants of those islands so as to allow the construction of an American military base there …
Which took place about 55 years ago. Nichan is behind the curve on many things.
perhaps the most poised humble and proud moment from President Trump in some time.
in context, this is the same man who was nearly assassinated just a few months ago.
I dunno about you, but any man who can remain focused, solidly based after two time attempts to steal his life is something more than just special and I am certain President Trump is aware of this special gift given to him BY GOD>
driven by a purpose even he could have never imagined would fall into his life, he has taken this new role as a peace maker and aligned himself AND OUR NATION to working toward peace and approaching it with incredible humility.
this is not to suggest that “the king of England” is to be trusted, but more correctly, President Trump realizes this special opportunity to renew a relationship that is much needed to provide a larger global peace plan.
I admire the man. I have not always admired him…respected yes, but I am aware if his hyper ambitious nature that has worked extremely well for him, but has also involved some dodgy dealings with people and organizations that questions agenda.
This meeting and press event showed me yet again, a new man, humble and grateful to this opportunity.
age does not explain this transformation…dodging two bullets doesn’t explain it either.
I believe President Trump is blessed by GOD.
I pray for him each and every day to continue to do great things for the right reasons.
God Bless America
Love it when PDJT said “Can you take Putin by yourself” .. Lost on Starmer
I chuckled at that comment. 😁
The first thing I thought when I heard the King invite the President back was, “Uhhh…not he didn’t. He was told to invite him. Just like his mum, he makes no decisions. Maybe in the distant past but Royalty lost their mojo many moons ago.” The reason for inviting him is as transparent as Saran Rap.
Is Saran a hip-hop artist? 😝
Oopsie 🤣…It’s late, mind is fuzzy…..Saran Wrap.
Starmer:
The king has a special favor to ask of you President Trump.
He knows that Andrew is on multiple videos with underage girls and he would be willing to give a financial “gift” for your presidential library if the videos, photos and other evidence quietly disappears.
For the sake of the Queens memory and the royal family reputation.
The King would also throw in any other special requests you might have of him.
Like a non-halal menu option for the State Dinner?
President Trump owns 2 wonderful golf courses in Scotland. Up near Aberdeen is one of them
In order to upset President Trump the satanic Scottish pretend government sanctioned the building of a series of windmills right in front in the sea.
They are a useless eyesore.
It so happens that Jug Ears King Charlie ‘owns’ the sea shore to a distance of several miles all around Britain.
Therefore he collects rent for every windmill in sight.
Btw I had the honour and privilege to stay and play at President Trumps 2 great Scottish golf venues.
President Trump should ask Charlie to demolish those monstrosities.
Ha!
The King doesnt DO requests! He does commands!
Who the frag do you think has been running the USA since the civil war?
Are you that stoopid?
If Trump was his own man, he would say…….. I CAN GET A BETTER DINNER AT MACCAS WITHOUT THE BS! FU!
Charles will bombard him with Greta’s ludicrous climate nonsense.
I knew our village idiot was missing.
So he is in America
Can you keep him please please
Have to send him back. Sorry. 🤷♂️
Trump can use any event to his purpose, even a visit to Blighty. Timing is all. We’ll see.
Charles sent the invitation by DHL Express.
Damn Haughty Liberal.
Charles is about as cognizant at Joe Biden.
2nd prize is two state visits.
I do not trust the Uk leadership. As far as I am concern it is a plot to assassinate Trump. Trump should go to Hungary instead.
Starmer protects child rapists and steals election. I would avoid his demonic presence.
Thank you. This was my gut feeling as well. I don’t trust it. I love Trump, but he admitted that he likes to be flattered, so this is a perfect lure: “a second state visit is unprecedented, blah blah” …. it feels like a trap. I was wondering if anyone else felt this way.
