'He has another thing coming': Reporter breaks bad Epstein news to Trump amid his UK visit

President Donald Trump is on his second state visit to the United Kingdom Wednesday, and while the president has excitedly called the invitation a “great honor,” local protestors are refusing to allow Trump to escape one of the biggest scandals that has plagued his administration.

Reporting from London, England, NBC News international correspondent Raf Sanchez said that “thousands of British protestors” were expected to march the streets of central London later on Wednesday in protest to Trump’s visit. As such, Trump’s entire trip was “designed,” Sanchez said, to avoid London.

As of Wednesday morning, Trump and First Lady Melania Trump are staying at Winfield House in London, the American ambassador’s residence, and are expected to fly to Windsor Castle later on Wednesday. And, while Trump’s travel plans were designed to avoid demonstrations, protestors have already employed a tactic to ensure that their demonstrations will follow Trump throughout his visit.

“Protestors are expected to march down this main thoroughfare in central London, they will gather at Parliament, and guys, if the president thought he was leaving the Jeffrey Epstein scandal behind when he left Washington, he has another thing coming!” Sanchez said.

“A number of demonstrators actually projected images of the convicted sex offender along with the president on the walls of Windsor Castle last night. Four people have been arrested for that.”

The Trump administration’s handling of files related to Epstein have been among the most damaging scandals during the president’s second term. Many top Trump officials aggressively promoted theories around Epstein, the convicted child sex abuser alleged to have operated a blackmail operation targeting powerful figures, only to walk back those claims once placed in positions of authority.

Trump himself has been plagued by the Epstein scandal, with new details about his past relationship with the disgraced financier being unearthed in recent months, including a bawdy and suggestive letter he allegedly sent Epstein for his 50th birthday, a letter he denies writing.

“We are expecting thousands of British protestors to take to the streets of central London a little bit later today to make their displeasure at the president's presence in this country known,” Sanchez said. “So it's going to be totally apolitical with the royal family, and then extremely political here in London just in terms of what we're expecting.”
