Trump attends royal state banquet hosted by Queen Elizabeth II
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7jOOtEg5TL0
Donald Trump enjoyed all the trappings of a royal state banquet when the U.S. president was received by Queen Elizabeth on Monday, which included a four-course meal, more than 2,000 pieces of silver-gilt cutlery and a toast from the queen.
While this is the first time Trump and his wife Melania have experienced a royal British banquet, the queen is used to such occasions: it is the 113th time Queen Elizabeth has hosted a state visit.
Elizabeth will give a speech and a toast, and Trump will also be expected to say a few words ahead of the banquet.
