This weekend, ahead of President Donald Trump's visit to the United Kingdom, British news network Sky News released a trailer advertising their coverage of the trip.

With ominous music blaring as a dark shadow overtakes England, the trailer speaks volumes to the perception of the president abroad.

Watch below:

The shadow proves to be the inflatable Trump baby, a crowdfunded protest blimp which flew over parliament at Trump's last UK visit and will do so this time as well.

Trump's last UK visit resulted in uproar across the country, spurring massive protests attended by thousands. The president told a UK paper that British Prime Minister Theresa May "wrecked" Brexit. He rolled back his comments at a press conference with May later, where he also refused to take a question from CNN.

Ahead of this visit alone, he called the American-born Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle, "nasty" for critical comments she'd made of him in the past.

Brits and Americans alike could agree that Sky News's trailer was a fitting preface for impending uproar.

Trump arrived in the UK early on Monday and will meet with the queen.

Keep calm and carry on.

Trump Threatens To Take Back Funding To Fix Baltimore Bridge After Maryland Governor Considers Redistricting

President Donald Trump lashed out at Maryland Governor Wes Moore after Moore said he may redistrict his state to eliminate its one Republican-held House seat, threatening to take back federal funds to repair Baltimore's Francis Scott Key Bridge following its March 2024 collapse.

The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge occurred when a container ship struck the structure, causing it to crumble like a house of cards into the Patapsco River. The tragic event resulted in the deaths of six individuals who were working on the bridge at the time and led to the closure of one of the nation's busiest ports.

Sweeney caused a firestorm in recent weeks with an American Eagle jeans ad that played on thinly veiled dog whistles about her supposedly perfect blond-haired, blue-eyed "genes," which many interpreted as pandering to the far-right.

Tucker Carlson Slammed After Agreeing With Guest Who Said We 'Should Have Sided With Hitler' In WWII

Former Fox News personality Tucker Carlson sparked backlash online after agreeing with Cornell University organic chemistry professor Dave Collum that Americans are learning World War II history "all wrong" and that the United States "should have sided with" genocidal German Nazi Party leader Adolf Hitler.

Collum likened himself to Darryl Cooper, another Carlson guest who has branded Winston Churchill the “chief villain” of World War II. He went on to invoke General George S. Patton, claiming Patton had voiced the same view. In reality, Patton warned after the war that the U.S. had “fought the wrong enemy,” a reference to his concern about the Soviet Union rather than advocacy for Hitler.
