News of Trump's statement was broadcast the moment he was having dinner with May at Blenheim Palace.
Then the Sun gets into a lot of distracting unrelated things.
Here's Nigel Farage, the man of many amusing faces, drawing a clearer picture.
Melania impresses at Blemheim.
Melania! What did you do with that fabulously elaborately ornate acanthus ornamentation?
"I baroque it."
Can you imaging growing up at Blenheim?
"Don't touch the lamp, don't touch the clock, don't touch the candelabra, don't touch any statues, don't touch the photograph of the Duke, don't touch the ancient Roman sarcophagus, don't touch the Louis Laguerre paintings, don’t touch the Belgian tapestries, don't touch the books, don't touch the gold tea set, don't touch the silver tea set either, don't touch the silver fruit bowl, don't touch the silver spittoons, don't touch the knight's armor. don't touch the stained glass, don't touch the mirrors, don't touch things on the mantle, don't touch anything on or in the desks, don't touch the rugs, don't touch the portraits, don't touch the vases, don't touch the historic wardrobe items, don't touch any fabrics, don't touch anything on any side table, don't touch the furniture. Just go outside and play with your little lamb on the Capability Brown lawn.

Trump's stock among the Limeys must have shot up 1000% with that.
And, boy, does Melania know how to make an impression.
PS Every kid grows up with "Don't touch...". I'm sure young Winston got yelled at plenty.
Thanks for keeping us posted on the news, Chip. The Brits surely paid out the rope with which to hang themselves.
Melania would look fabulous in a tattered hemp potato sack.
TBH, I thought Melania had better taste than that. It's as if she's punking the Brits.
Melania knows how to dress for the occasion. It's more a matter of fit than taste.
On par with the hats trotted out on formal occasions over there. Had she gone for with the sleek, tasteful or sexy babe look she would have out shown and shown up the British. This way she fits right in while inspiring awe, wonder and comment.
I had to look up "acanthus ornamentation" starting first with the flower before realizing it was a real term and not a flowery observation by ChipA. I live and learn.
M: What should I wear, hon?
D: Well I'm wearing a black tux so throw on that yellow schmatta in the closet, we'll complement each other.
M: Oh all right.
Without even looking it up, yellow schmatta covers it on sound alone.
She hit the sweet spot and fit right in, not quite as dowdy as the queen and slightly more resplendent though not enough to completely steal the show or appear icy or aloof.
MrM's sexist take: "I'm tellin' you, she looks really good! She looks really good on his arm!!" And she does!
