For a president determined to secure honours equal to or exceeding his predecessors, that achievement will be a triumph. But Trump, a longtime anglophile who also takes great pride in his Scottish golf courses, has more to celebrate than that: Trump arrives in Britain at a time when it is dominated by American-style politics.
Kirk has become the latest figurehead of a pan-European free speech row stoked by America, including directly by Donald Trump’s administration. Vice President JD Vance used his first address to European leaders, at the Munich Security Conference, to warn against European norms on free speech – and to effectively impose American ones.
The American right is convinced that the streets of London are deadly, despite them being vastly safer than even the safest big American city, and fixates on its Muslim mayor as if he’s a radical, rather than a generally liked liberal who has often led the city’s Pride parades. The UK’s rules on protests outside abortion clinics are a frequent topic of online discourse there, too.
Trump might be remarkably unpopular among the wider British public, but as he arrives in the country, he can be reassured that he is reshaping the country’s politics in its own image – more polarised, angrier, with more people of all factions taking to the streets. The President will be walking into a political atmosphere that will feel extremely familiar to him. As he walks through gilded surroundings, everything beyond smoulders.
The influence Trump’s America is having on Britain extends well beyond these cultural issues, and even beyond the polarising political climate – not least because Donald Trump requires them to do so.

The UK government is also facing the thorny question of what to do about Elon Musk, another importer of culture wars to the UK. Musk spoke at Tommy Robinson’s rally on Saturday, calling for the dissolution of parliament, accusing them of acting “against the people” and telling Brits to “fight back” against alleged impending violence.
In the early days of this second term of his presidency, Trump spoke ambitiously of expanding the USA and adding to its territory – perhaps Canada should join, maybe Greenland, or even Panama. But the UK, oddly, was never in the mix.
As Trump arrives this week to survey a country increasingly riven by politics in his image, the answer becomes clear: Trump doesn’t need to talk about annexing the UK, because he’s effectively done it already. Welcome to the 51st state, Mr President.
