Trump has been ridiculing the UK, jeopardizing Ukraine, bombing a school in Iran, offending The Pope, destroying the world economy and trying to undermine Europe by getting Orban reelected.

@randahl The key is that while individuals feel resentment and may wish for revenge, nations don't. That's why countries can be close allies despite being mortal enemies a few decades earlier.

@randahl What on earth is all this about royal families visiting Trump? Is it some sort of pathological obsession?

@randahl if you ask trump, they are probably celebrating Charles kissing his ass

@randahl
If we could get one of the big name French cartoonists to print a drawing of them holding hands - Charles on one side, Trump on the other, with Andrew in the middle.

Maybe the ghost of Epstein faint in the background.

@randahl "Friendship" with a pedophile felon ... disgusting.

@Saupreiss @randahl Yeah, brothers in soul

@randahl “It’s opening doors, and we should maintain communication”. Those were the words used by the Dutch PM around the royal visit of the Dutch King. Who even got to sleep in the White House… (not the PM, who also left his boyfriend at home…)

@randahl King Charles would have been sent by Starmer, these aren't things he can do on his own initiative.

I propose that Australia takes advantage of King Charles' role as our monarch to have him call Trump "champ". The American's wouldn't notice the insult.

@randahl Charles is there to celebrate 250 years of American independence. A person’s position on the merits of this particular trip probably rest on whether you view the last few years as an aberration or as a continuation. Honestly, I’m torn
