When King Charles recently visited the US, it was intended as a diplomatic mission to repair the US-Britain relationship that Trump had damaged.
Charles addressed Congress and showed more support for democracy in the United States and around the world than Trump ever haswhich is surprising because King Charles is a monarch and Trump is a democratically elected president, yet a king is more pro-democracy than an American president.
Trump doesn’t understand anything other than the most superficial elements, but he really wants to be king.
He wants to be what he thinks a king is, and that’s why he’s turned the Oval Office into what someone with no concept of taste or regality thinks a palace should look like.
This is what Trump did to the Oval Office:
Now imagine you’re someone on a diplomatic mission who gets paid too much for his ceremonial duties, but his only job is to be as polite and diplomatic as possible, and he walks into the image above with Donald Trump beaming with pride.
At a White House event, Trump showed his ignorance by volunteering to reporters what he thought was a compliment from King Charles, but it definitely wasn’t.
