13. He'll bring his own people.

As to the comments on whether or not the UK should cancel his visit for political reasons, our (U.S.) failure is on us. It's not even within the power of nations like the U.K., E.U. nations, and Canada to fix this. They're fighting for their own lives, trying to come out of it sovereign and with intact political and economic structures. If that means they employ soft power of flattery and prestige like Macron used to be able to do, and if Trump backs off because he still has the hots for Charles' ex, use the power.
