Fox & Friends' Steve Doocy raises a skeptical eyebrow about Trump not staying in Buckingham Palace
President Trump isn't staying at Buckingham Palace during his U.K. visit, and Fox & Friends' Steve Doocy doesn't sound particularly confident in the official explanation.
Trump won't be staying at Buckingham Palace like former presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush did because of renovations that are currently underway, as had been previously announced. Trump will instead stay at the U.S. ambassador's Winfield House, The Washington Post reports.
But during a Monday Fox & Friends segment discussing Trump's visit, Doocy seemed to let a bit of skepticism of this report slip through, sounding quite incredulous as he explained that "they say" Trump can't stay at Buckingham Palace due to renovations.

And these are our allies!" Brendan Morrow
