    The Trumps have arrived in London! 

    President Trump kicked off his two-day visit across the pond on Tuesday with a visit to Clarence House, where he and Melania joined Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla for tea. The president and the first lady are in town to meet with NATO leaders, and will later join other members of the royal family at a reception hosted by Queen Elizabeth at Buckingham Palace tonight. 

    Trump dressed with a blue tie for the occasion, but it was Melania's school bus yellow cape coat by Valentino stole the show. She paired the bright coat, which retails for $7,700, with violet "So Kate" stilettos from Christian Louboutin and her go-to blowout. 

    While many Twitter users were quick to comment on the color of the coat, with one even comparing it to Big Bird from "Sesame Street," other fans of FLOTUS called the bold choice "stunning."

    "@FLOTUS looks like she dressed up in a comic superhero character character," wrote one critic. Said another, "Big Bird called. He wants his outfit back."


    We have the most gorgeous @FLOTUS in the history of this country.

    Stunning! Thank you, @POTUS and @FLOTUS

    "We have the most gorgeous @FLOTUS in the history of this country," wrote one fan. 

    The first couple later left Clarence House to meet with the queen and other dignitaries at Buckingham Palace to mark the 70th anniversary of the NATO alliance. 

    Melania and President Trump had previously joined Prince Charles and Duchess Camilla for tea during their last visit to London six months ago, where the biggest moment of the meeting was "cheeky" wink from the duchess.

    Trump mocks Greta Thunberg's Time Person of the Year honor: 'So ridiculous'

    DON: Where did Donald Trump go to college? HERE'S THE REAL STORY. Donald Trump's college-related educational history surfaced as a point of controversy during the presidential campaign. The 12-year-old Trump was sent to military school in upstate New York after proving to be too unruly for Manhattan's private institutions. Despite that training, he didn't go on to serve in the military, obtaining five deferments from Vietnam — one for his infamous "bone spurs," and four for college. But that still leaves the question, where did Donald Trump go to college?Where did Donald Trump go to college? Well, he actually attended two universities. Instead of going into the military, Trump followed his father, Fred, into real estate upon his graduation from high school in 1964. He enrolled at Fordham University in the Bronx. But the path — and the school — weren't his first choices. Trump originally wanted to be a movie producer, Newsweek reported. But after being rejected from the University of Southern California, he enrolled at Fordham. Why? "That's where he got in," said Trump's sister, Maryanne, in the book "The Trumps: Three Generations of Builders and a Presidential Candidate.” There, Trump played squash but otherwise left no mark at the school, the president of the Fordham Alumni Association said in 2017. After two years there, “I decided that as long as I had to be in college, I might as well test myself against the best,” Trump said in his 1987 book "The Art of the Deal.” He transferred to the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, largely due to his interview with an admissions officer who was a high-school classmate of his older brother Fred. What degree does Donald Trump have? Trump would earn a degree in economics in 1968. He later claimed to have earned an MBA at Wharton and graduated first in his class, boasts which appeared in the first profile written about his real-estate endeavors in the New York Times in 1976. Both claims are untrue. The 1968 graduation program does not list him as graduation with any kind of honors. His degree was undergraduate, not an MBA. And the Boston Globe reported he was an unremarkable student: "His former classmates said he seemed a student who spoke up a lot but rarely shined in class, who barely participated in campus activities, shunned fraternity parties." But somewhere along the way, Trump developed the ability to spin his own myth, which would carry him to the presidency half a century after graduation. I might add that there is no verification that Trump actually graduated from high school though he claims that he was the smartest person in high school. Sound familiar?
