-The president to come here is very unlikely. This is not correct. It should be: "The president coming here is very unlikely." We are using the gerund and not the infinitive because the event has not happened. -It's very unlikely the president to come here. This is almost correct. It should be: "It's very unlikely for the president to come here." We need a "for" before the unlikely event we're referring to. -My suspecs were completely deceiving. I think you mean "suspects"? If that's the case, other than the spelling error, this sentence is grammatically correct.
