Get ready for the most embarrassing Ugly American ever:

Donald Trump waving from the Queen’s royal carriage is not a scenario many would have foreseen a year ago, but it has become a very real prospect, forcing security services to plan an unprecedented lockdown.

The White House has made clear it regards the carriage procession down the Mall as an essential element of the itinerary for the visit currently planned for the second week of October, according to officials.

Security sources have warned, however, that the procession will require a “monster” security operation, far greater than for any recent state visit.

President Obama declined the gold carriage due to the expense and security concerns.  The age of terrorism has made such rituals risky, especially with an American president. But Trump wants to ride in Cinderella's carriage and ride in Cinderella's carriage he will.
