Donald Trump’s inauguration features unexpected guests, including British politicians and celebrities, raising eyebrows and questions about their influence.
Washington: So, Trump’s big day is here, and it’s not just the usual crowd. A bunch of British politicians and celebs made the trip to witness the inauguration. Can you believe it? From Liz Truss to Nigel Farage, they’re all there, and it’s raising some eyebrows.
Liz Truss, the former Prime Minister, flew over 3,500 miles just to be part of the action. But guess what? She might not even get to see the ceremony up close because of the weather. She’s been a vocal supporter of Trump, even posting a pic in D.C. with a hat that says, “The new Donald Trump term can’t come soon enough.” Talk about dedication!
Then there’s Nigel Farage, who’s been tight with Trump for ages. He’s definitely on the guest list, and there’s buzz about him being hailed as “the next prime minister of Great Britain” at a party celebrating the inauguration. Sounds like a wild night!
Boris Johnson is also in the mix. He’s made the long journey and is rumored to have a special seat, thanks to his close ties with Trump. Johnson even endorsed Trump last year, saying he’s what the world needs right now. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster with these guys, isn’t it?
Suella Braverman, wearing a MAGA hat, expressed her gratitude for the invite. She’s joining the likes of Priti Patel and Liz Truss, but it’s unclear if she’ll get a front-row seat. Braverman has had her share of controversies, but she’s still in the spotlight.
And let’s not forget Laurence Fox, the actor and right-wing commentator. He’s been vocal about his support for Trump, calling him the “perfect antidote to elitist supremacists.” He’s also had some legal troubles recently, but that hasn’t stopped him from showing up.
Priti Patel, the shadow foreign secretary, is also there, emphasizing the strong ties between the Conservative Party and the Republicans. She’s all about the shared values and beliefs, which is a nice touch.
Lastly, Ian Paisley, a long-time friend of Trump, is on the guest list too. He’s optimistic about what Trump’s presidency could mean for Northern Ireland, highlighting potential business opportunities. It’s a mixed bag of supporters, and it’ll be interesting to see how this all plays out.
