Someone Projected Trump's Approval Rating in the UK Versus Obama's Onto the Tower of London, and We Really Hope He Saw It
Troll Level: Master.
President Donald Trump arrived in the United Kingdom on Monday and the Brits are welcoming him with some masterful shade.
In addition to TV commercials and crowdfunded Trump Baby blimps, UK residents are also trolling Trump using something simple.

People are applauding the projections.

We're not sure if Trump will see Led By Donkeys' handiwork, but we certainly hope word gets back to him.
