President Trump has requested a ride with Queen Elizabeth II in a gold-plated carriage during his visit to the United Kingdom this October, according to a report by The Times of London. The tradition of world leaders taking a carriage ride along the mall from the Royal Mews to Buckingham Palace with the Queen is not entirely unusual. The decision has not yet been confirmed, and aspects of Trump's visit are still in flux. While President Obama chose not to ride in such a carriage during his U.K. visit, other world leaders — including Russian President Vladimir Putin, Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto and Chinese President Xi Jinping — have taken such carriage rides during state visits. Obama chose to use a bullet- and bomb-proof car during his visit. While the carriage is well protected by nearby security and has some protective features, security officials say it is more risky and more vulnerable than other options. Poster Comment:

Puttie's been there, done that. Trump's a day late, and a dollar short in Syria too. It looks kinda silly.
It's subdued and tasteful compared to Trump's Manhattan Penthouse.
I can see that happening … They would compliment each other nicely together in the carriage …
I think i see your gal hill in the background trying to get a good view.
In response to his request the queen will provide Donny Trumpkin with suitable transport, her Royal Golden Tricycle from the attic, and a Pink Pu$$yhat. Not really. It is silly. A royal carriage was out of date a century ago. It's just lame. And even lamer that Trump wants to ride in it with the Queen. Déclassé.
As much as you and the other Trump cultists would like to see him installed as King, the United states is not a monarchy. But, we now have a decisive President who will take immediate correct action when and where needed. Right? Of course….that’s right. At this point, you need to post: “Thank you, Donald, for being here to do that.” Then, you may now please stand for “Honors” …
