The Mogul has landed. Yes, that’s Donald Trump’s Secret Service call sign (Melania’s is Muse, perhaps a reference to her modelling days). The US President landed in the UK yesterday evening for his unprecedented second state visit to the UK.
Unprecedented because Trump is the first US President to get a second state visit, which comes with a royal invitation and all the pomp and ceremony that includes. Of course, Trump loves pomp, so rolling out the royal red carpet is an obvious diplomatic manoeuvre to butter him up ahead of some tricky geopolitical topics of conversation.
