RUSH: A lot of people are asking me — ’cause people ask me what I think of everything — “So, Rush, what’s the real reason for this Megxit, this Prince Harry and Meghan Markle leaving the royal family?” Come on! Every husband… Uh, four out of every five husbands can tell you what this is all about. This one’s not hard to figure out in any way, shape, manner, or form.
But there’s no advantage to me in explaining it to you. So I shall leave you to your own imaginations and conclusions. I did explain it in great detail to Snerdley, and I had him rolling on the floor in laughter as I’m… (interruption) I can’t. There’s no way I can. (interruption) I can’t! I can’t. I cannot explain it. There’s no way. I wouldn’t survive if I did. I wouldn’t…
(laughing) Anyway, let’s see. (interruption) Okay. (sigh) I’ll guarantee you this. After the vows were repeated, she said to him, “If you think that I’m gonna get stuck over here in some little cottage that your grandmother gave us and we’re gonna run around sipping cocktails and go to horse races wearing top hats, you’ve got another thing coming.”
And he said, “You could have told me that before we got married!”
BREAK TRANSCRIPT
RUSH: Now look. When I say I am stunned by how much time the Drive-Bys are giving this story of Prince Harry and Meghan what’s-her-face leaving the royal family, I know why people are fascinated. It still stuns me the amount of hard news coverage it gets.
JOHNNY DONOVAN: And now, from sunny South Florida, it’s Open Line Friday!
RUSH. Are people really as fascinated with the royal family today as they were? When Princess Di was alive and running around, that was probably the peak. But do people really care as much about it now? Well, I actually think in the U.K. they’re getting close — I mean, it’s not imminent, big word — but I think the talk is bubbling up of getting rid of the whole thing. You know once it stops serving its purpose as a tourist attraction, do you have any idea how much money that they’re literally giving that bunch every year?
It isn’t long, the Millennials or maybe the generation coming up behind, some of them are gonna start saying, “What the hell are we doing here? Do you realize how many health care policies we could buy with the houses alone we’re paying for for these people?” And what do they do but provide escapism in the form of media coverage?
In fact, even The Oprah got ensnared in this. The Oprah was reported to have been one of the instigators in convincing Harry and Meghan to split the royal family. And so The Oprah had to go out and write a newspaper article, give an interview and say, “It wasn’t me. I had nothing to do –” This is no mystery what’s going on here. Anybody that’s ever been married knows exactly what happened here. This is not hard to figure out.
Maybe Camilla isn’t a great step mother in law. Come on Markle, eat the apple darling.
The neighbors in Canada were forced to sign Non disclosure agreements..which is why you saw no pictures or details.
I don’t think you can force them to do it. Perhaps they were offered compensation.
“she doesn’t want you to solve her issues, she just wants to talk about them.”
This...is the most baffling truism of marriage.
Her: “I neeeeeed you to understaaaaand what I’m feeeeeling about this problem.”
Him: “If we _solved_ the problem, there wouldn’t BE a problem.”
Lasting, but happy for only the wife?
For us, the secret is compromise. Not halfway, but more. If both husband and wife agree to each compromise 60 percent or more, then it'll last. And be happy for both. Too many people meet the other side halfway at best, and end up breaking up. Both should go out of their way to keep the peace and ensure happiness. Half a century for us so far, until we die.
When you have a monarchy you have subjects. It’s not gone. And one of the princes is always prince of Canada. so...
“When you’re in love with someone who sacrifices for the other person?”
Both of you. Being together, like every other thing people do, has costs. Like “opportunity costs” in economics. You spend more time with your spouse or significant other than you do with your friends. You may have to pick up your own socks. If one of you gets sick, the other takes care of them. That may be anything from getting them a cup of chicken soup once in a while to working (possibly at a job you hate) to keep insurance so they have medical care. You give up on hobbies, get up in the middle of the night with kids or pets or whatever so at least one of you gets some rest, do dishes, cook food, whatever it takes. If you’re smart, you won’t bitch about it to anyone, either. ;)
I’m not the brightest crayon in the box, but I’ve been married, this time, for 37+ years. I think I’ve learned at least a couple of things.
If they don’t do ANY of that for you, even once in a while, it may be time to look for the exit. OTH, neither of you will be perfect at it. If you can, cut them a little slack, and see how things go.
MEGXIT........The Pu$$Y whipping of the Century.
I do believe the Queen may remove their titles.
The grifting skank knew this going in. She went cat fishing and landed a Royal whale.
Hapless Harry never saw it coming. He let Mr Happy do his thinking for him.
< 5 years.

The big problem is that the British Royals gave up many of their privacy rights, they thought in order to use the press in their favor. But that backfired, and now they are interminably harrassed.
Other monarchies like Japan have strict privacy rules, basically no coverage of the Imperial Family unless specifically permitted.
“He has dual citizenship. He’s American, because his mother is American. He’s British because his father is British.”
And under US law, at age 18 he needs to chose one of them. Got a bit of time to make up his mind on that, yet, I think.
Who cares? Harry is sixth in line to the throne. I am holding out for Mrs. Michael Tindall who is 18th in line.
It was either this or release a porn video.
“The better answer is no wife to begin with.”
No, the better answer is to grow up some before you chose the wrong wife. Did that, once, myself. Did better on the second and final.
In a box. Just sayin’.
Elsewhere, I heard her called “Princess Harambe”.
Now that’s funny right there...
They’ve been predicting that for centuries. If Charles is side-stepped and Britons get their balls back, William and Kate will be very popular.
