Donald Trump sure to be jealous!

The perfect snub for Trump! Well played Your Highness!

I actually think that was a request from Charles.
I'm no apologist for him, but I bet Charles is mightily pissed off at being used to placate the Orange Dick tator.

Why is an unelected Royal sticking his beak in?

stevepeers.bsky.social•2 days ago

The point is to show support for Zelensky. The monarch doesn't do such things without government approval.

sophiemac.bsky.social•2 days ago

I understand all that. But thanks, all, for explaining the incredibly obvious. I just don't want an unelected person who gets money in suitcases from the Saudis involved in anything. But you've all sucked it right up, so it must be okay

stevepeers.bsky.social•2 days ago

There's no need to be unpleasant. You asked a question and I answered. It's about Trump, not me

sophiemac.bsky.social•2 days ago

I received a lot of basic responses re workings of politics. It wasn't supposed to be unpleasant. It was full of frustration. I shouldn't have posted it in the first place because I wasn't hoping for an answer. Just incredibly angry with the way it's all being reported and handled...

If you understand how Constitutional Monarchy works you must already know the answer, so was your question just to wind people up?

martymcd.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's often missed how frequently the Monarch and PM actually speak, because it's far more often than once a week

mayfaircynic.bsky.social•2 days ago

And even if not directly they... well they have staff...

martymcd.bsky.social•2 days ago

That too

eekyrich.bsky.social•2 days ago

Don’t we all

mayfaircynic.bsky.social•2 days ago

I only hire mutes

biscuitfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

I dislike the idea of the monarchy too but on this, if it annoys Trump then I'm all for it.

crossjack.bsky.social•2 days ago

This will be at the request of the Government.

glennfryatt.bsky.social•2 days ago

Because it will piss Trump off that Zelensky meets him first 👍🏼

davidw954.bsky.social•2 days ago

It’s a subtle Fuck You to Trump and it consolidates Zelenskyy’s legitimacy.

callymeg.bsky.social•2 days ago

He's doing it at the government's request (same with most such actions). *Fun* that it's going to be at Sandringham!

The President of Free Ukraine to meet the King of Canada.

That sound you can hear in the distance is the most epic man-baby tantrum in the history of humanity…

passionpants.bsky.social•2 days ago

The big question is, will he wear a suit? I hope not. I doubt Charlie would be bothered.

stunathan.bsky.social•2 days ago

He wouldn't give a toss.

freddy1138.bsky.social•2 days ago

Hope Trump sees that.

nicboothby.bsky.social•2 days ago

A king can move one square horizontally, vertically, and diagonally unless the square is already occupied by a friendly piece, or the move would place the king in check. If the square is occupied by an undefended enemy piece, the king may capture it, removing it from play... ♟️

Will Charles mention his subject nation, Canada?

djaymanic.bsky.social•2 days ago

That will piss off trump, good, i hope be bursts an aneurism
