It’s definitely not escaped your attention that the President of the United States, Donald Trump, is currently living it large in London.
He and Melania Trump have been hanging out with the Queen (but definitely not Meghan Markle), attending fancy state banquets at Buckingham Palace, and trying to keep the ‘special relationship’ between the United States and the United Kingdom alive.
The trip was always going to be, well, a colourful one.
Before he’d even landed on British soil, Trump was already angering people by firing shots at London Mayor Sadiq Khan, calling him “a stone cold loser” and labelling Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, ‘nasty’ before denying it (despite the fact it was caught on tape. Anyway…).
The citizens of the UK aren’t exactly having the best time of it because of the whole Brexit kerfuffle, so at least Trump’s visit is a distraction of sorts?
With Trump being such a divisive figure, there’s always going to be some excellent awkward moments for the rest of us to enjoy.
Here are the six most awkward moments from his trip so far.

I just want to know why Melania has what appears to be a glow in the dark sloppy joe tied around her waist in the first photo.
It’s someone casting a shadow.
So it's not aliens after all?
Damn stupid internet has lied to me again!
Ivanka and Jared at the window is like any other couple looking out a window at an undoubtedly beautiful view.
The awkward fist pump/shake - we’ve all been there....
Trump falling asleep is actually him listening intently. Doesn’t happen often.
Look - I’m not a Trump fan but this article is ridiculous.
Also.. and just throwing this out there... why does Trump have to follow all of their rules? Is there not some give and take? They are all awfully powerful people and kinda feel like everyone has to always go to them. They are kinda like my annoying in-laws. Always come to us and do everything our way... Do return visits happen or does Meghan’s over the time baby shower count?
