Voice of the Mirror: President Trump crash lands

Donald Trump landed in Britain with the decorum of a rogue elephant, rampaging through diplomatic conventions with his attack on London’s Mayor Sadiq Khan.

The US president’s ill-tempered, undignified, antics perfectly illustrate why he is viewed as an unpopular oaf, though our relationship with America and Americans remains strong.

He has again shown himself to be a thin-skinned blunderer repeatedly failing to live up to the demands of the post he occupies.

Now there was a president worthy of respect.

The protestors demonstrating against Trump represent what Britain thinks about an ungracious guest.
