Trump Woos British Royals With Wild Gifts on State Visit

Donald Trump and the British royals exchanged wild gifts, including a not-quite-sword, during a colorful and gaudy welcoming ceremony at Windsor Castle.

The president and first lady Melania Trump jetted into the U.K. and are staying overnight—but reportedly in separate rooms—on the 11th-century estate near London.

The pomp and pageantry were dialed up on Wednesday for Trump’s official welcome, complete with a guard of honor from three regiments of the British Army, a rendition of “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and a ride in a fairytale horse-drawn carriage.
