So he cites the reason as not wishing to open the US embassy in London because Obama did a bad deal on the real estate
The facts are these
The embassy move was initiated by Bush for security reasons
The reason the existing building did not realise the vast sum it its worth is because the US does not own the freehold
Despite this enough money was secured to make the billion dollar move cost neutral
And we all know that the real reason Trump won't visit the UK is because of the mass protests that would ensue
Because he is internationally reviled
