Check Out These Insane Pictures From The UK’s Anti-Trump Protest
Donald Trump jumped across the pond to meet the Queen and was instead met with 250,000 protestors.
Donald Trump and Melania hopped across the pond today to meet the Queen and other British diplomats, and upon their arrival, they were also met with another surprise: a full-blown protest. That’s right, thousands (seriously, thousands) of British citizens banded together to show their outrage at the American President and his policies.
Just take a moment to soak this in:
TRUMP: "I'm very popular in Britain."

The protest included an #iconic balloon of Trump as a baby and plenty of anti-Trump signs that described exactly why they thought 45 was an unfit president.

You’ve got to admire people’s passion and creativity. This isn’t even their leader they’re protesting! And yet they put this whole thing together anyway, with a total estimate of 250,000 participating! That’s pretty epic if you ask me.
