U.S. President Donald Trump made a historic second visit with King Charles III on Wednesday, featuring gun tributes, soldiers on horseback and bagpipes, which went far from protesters.
The laughter and jokes of the two were joked as Trump joking on a well-crafted sight at Windsor Castle in western London, a carriage parade designed to participate in the love of pumps and matching by Mexican-American leaders in the United States.
About 120 horses and 1,300 members of the British army – some wearing red coats and golden helmets – issued a Trump attack at the ceremony of honor, which the honorary official called the largest, for a live visit to the UK.
The president and first lady Melania Trump greeted a grey helicopter at Windsor, William and his wife Catherine, in Windsor, which greeted the Marines at 12:15 pm (GMT 1115).
William and Catherine walked away with the waiting Queen Charles and Camilla, amid the gunshots of thousands of protesters shouting anti-Trump slogans in London.
A 41-shoot tribute was launched simultaneously in a six-World War-era favor on the castle’s east lawn, as a similar display took place at the Tower of London in the heart of the capital.
Trump and the royal family were then taken to a black and gold coach surrounded by cavalry cavalry, passing through Windsor Manor toward the nearly 1,000-year-old castle where Trump and Charles checked the Guard of Honor.
Seeing the two sharing smiles, the president saluted the American national anthem before heading inside for lunch while playing the American national anthem.
They exchanged gifts, royals gave Trump a book to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence next year, and Trump presented Charles with a copy of President Dwight Eisenhower’s sword.
“Warm my heart”
Britain is doing everything it can to dazzle him and flatter the unpredictable Trump as the British government tries to keep him in touch during a series of international crises.
However, the 79-year-old Republican stayed away from the British as polls showed he was still unpopular in the public, with the entire visit behind closed doors.
An estimated 3,000 people traveled through central London, waving the Palestinian flag and displayed slogans, including “Immigration welcomes, Trump is not welcome.”
“I’m just afraid of a world that’s taken over by someone who really hates it,” Jo Williamson, 58, told him. AFP.
Trump is the U.S. president who made two state visits with Queen Elizabeth II in 2019.
In Windsor, he placed a wreath on the grave of Charles’ mother, Elizabeth II, who died in 2022 and watched a series of items related to the United States, including a letter sent to Queen Victoria from President Abraham Lincoln in 1862 and died in 1862.
The President and Charles will end a banquet with white tie, where they will give speeches.
Trump has caused global turmoil over everything from tariffs to Ukraine and Gaza, with British Prime Minister Keir Starmer going to hope the president will leave on Thursday, feeling the popularity of the royal soft power, but no guarantee.
Epstein’s shadow
The president’s mother cheered from Scotland and owned two wave resorts in the country.
U.S. leaders may also enjoy the opportunity to escape turbulent times at home kill Right-wing activist Charlie Kirk has caused deep turmoil.
But the ghost is vaguely visible to late-stage criminal Jeffrey Epstein, who is for Trump and filter.
Police arrested four people after casting images of Trump and Epstein at Windsor Castle late Tuesday.
Starmer will host Trump at his country home Checkers the day after his visit Thursday.
The couple will receive billions of pounds in each other’s economies, including billions of pounds from British Pharmaceutical Group and Google, but there may be embarrassing moments.
Starmer’s governmental behavior consolidates “special relations” between the two countries, deepens economic ties, secures billions of dollars in investment, discusses tariffs and imposes ratifications on the U.S. president.
In the coming years, companies that have invested in the UK ($42 billion) including Microsoft, Nvidia, Google and Openai have committed UK investments in AI, Quantum Computing and Civil Enuit Energy.

“They want to see if the trade deal can be perfected,” Trump said on Tuesday.
But while Starmer is relying on unparalleled royal charm, which helps promote the English-speaking president, many of the British Prime Minister’s pitfalls remain.
Polls show Trump faces his own and economic hardships in the UK and Starmer, which will show that his Royal Ace can benefit from it.
Starmer faces political trouble after firing his British body to Washington, Peter Mandelson to the late Epstein.
Embarrassing questions about Epstein may also surface.
The capital’s communities had different views on the visit, with some angry at the invitation, while others said it was wise politics and used the UK’s soft power well.
“We are looking for a full situation,” said Kirstie Robertshaw, a 54-year-old attorney.
For Charles himself, the visit could cause mixed emotions. From his 50-year advocacy for environmental reasons to the efforts to bring harmony to religion and his recent firm support for the Canadian head of state, he has little in common with Trump.
However, since the coronation, the occasion will also bring him the greatest global attention.
“If it goes well … I think it will be the most important event in his reign,” said historian Anthony Seldon.
