Hello again, I'm Orman Alney with a special edition of To the Point.

President Trump is making the rounds of Europe, starting at NATO headquarters in Brussels,

ending with NATO's principal antagonist Vladimir Putin of Russia. In between, he'll get a very

unorthodox welcome in London, where a huge balloon, an inflated baby designed

in Trump's image, will be floating over the houses of Parliament, complete with a diaper.

That calls for a conversation about U.S. relations with the United Kingdom.

But first, here's Mr. Trump with British broadcaster, Pierce Morgan.

This has been going up between you and my country, which has been...

But I think it's good. I think I'm very popular in your country.

Let's not be too hasty, Mr. President.

I know, but I believe that. I really do. I believe it. I get so much fan mail from people

in your country. They love my sense of security. They love what I'm saying about many different things. I have a great, I own the great Turnberry and other things in your country, Turnberry in Scotland.

Mary Dostoevsky is chief editorial writer of the independent newspaper in London. Always good to talk with you.

Thank you.

So, Pierce Morgan said, let's not be too hasty when you say that the British people love you.

Where do you come down on that issue? Do they or don't they?

Well, I think there is a very vocal section of the population, which is adamantly opposed to Donald Trump and has

been right through the campaign and ever since his inauguration. Now, it's probably true that

at grassroots level, there is also a section of the population that sometimes called in phone-in programs and

sometimes writes to newspapers, which says to the other half of the British population,

look, he's the elected president of the United States, and he tells it how it is, and we

like it that way. So do we like it, for example, when he tells it how it is, and we like it that way.
