I wonder what King Charles will say to Trump. I wonder if Keir will continue sitting on the fence.
Funnily I was going to say earlier today that Keir actually did a decent job, Trump seemed to actually like Keir and be impressed by him, he blindsided Trump with that letter from the King and Keir even slapped that moron Vance down when he made a dumb comment about UK. I did not like his response about Canada though, a "we're here to talk about Ukraine" would have sufficed if he wanted to avoid the topic, not "UK and USA are best friends" but I felt like he actually achieved Ukraine support through his visit.
Course Keir has been bamboozled by Trump and it was all an act, all horseshit, if I was Keir I'd be fuming at the complete waste of time. Keir goes from looking like he maneuvered around Trump to looking like he completely wasted his time, now if Keir goes back to America it's going to look like pathetic begging. He needs to take a side, and the Brits have already chosen, they'd rather Europe than America. No one gives a shit about what happened yesterday now between Trump and Starmer, Trump tanked it all in a day.
He's going to look like a man pleasing nobody who can't take a firm stance. UK will never be anything under America's shadow but we may be something as a key ally to Europe, a leader, rather than America's dog. The UK fought proudly to defend Europe once before and fought the Nazis, America has abandoned us, I genuinely think Keir taking a firmer stance calling out America and siding with Europe will help his poll numbers.
He's terrified of American tariffs, but there ain't nothing like a common enemy to unite people.
