"Trump's second state visit to Britain got off to a rocky start Tuesday night, when images of him alongside Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto the walls of Windsor Castle, and it only went downhill from there. The trip was brief, but the Brits made the most of it, turning out in force with protests that were equal parts furious and inventive."
"While Vice President JD Vance didn't get to accompany Trump across the pond, he was there in spirit...kind of. The highlight of the protest was a couple of giant inflatable beach balls featuring the infamous, memeified face of JD Vance, bobbing over the crowds-not as giant as the poster that greeted Vance in Nantucket in July, but certainly more fun."
"If you thought Americans hated Trump, the Brits might just hate him more. In addition to the beach balls, signs read " Reject Trump. Reject Fascism," " Orange Lies Matter," and of course, " Feed him to the corgis! " I have to assume the last one is the most devastating insult of them all. There were also puppets of Trump being dragged through the streets, drum lines, and a full-on Trump impersonator."
Trump's second state visit to Britain began with projected images of him with Jeffrey Epstein on Windsor Castle and continued amid widespread protests. Thousands gathered in central London for a "Trump Not Welcome" demonstration organized by the Stop Trump Coalition, bringing together climate activists, abortion-rights groups, and pro-Palestine advocates. Protest tactics included giant inflatable beach balls bearing JD Vance's memeified face, satirical signs, puppets, drum lines, and a Trump impersonator. Vice President JD Vance remained in the U.S. and appeared on The Charlie Kirk Show, claiming "festering violence on the far left" led to a shooting despite limited information about motives.
