But unlike that outing, none of his kids made the trip this week, where the president’s schedule is largely full of meetings with other leaders of the decades-old alliance between the U.S., Canada and much of Europe.

Before Tuesday’s reception, President Trump and the first lady had tea withPrince CharlesandCamilla, Duchess of Cornwall, who were also on hand for the Buckingham event along withKate Middleton.
