And there is no way he would step on parliment's toes to offer someone who is literally destroying another democracy a membership in the Commonwealth. Trump has zero clue what the Commonwealth is, how as the Empire slowed and countries left it, Queen Elizabeth II pulled together a Commonwealth of nations. He wouldn't understand why any countries would band together for the good of each other. He's a moron.

Catch is, King Charles doesn't get involved (usually unless it involves green initiatives or preserving history) in politics. And Trump has such a poor reputation in the UK and the Commonwealth - there's no way he'd risk it. It's bad enough that his brother is also an Epstein pedo, leaping on his legacy.

Anyway, I'm sorry for the little rant. But, it makes me so extra furious when that orange POS acts like the Queen knighted him "in secret" and like he's besties with Charles. Charles has a lot of flaws but he's an intellectual and academic. I'm sure he hates the bloviator.
