50 years ago Charles was 21 years old. Older than Greta is now but not much.

Only 3 months left until the virus kills us all.

Chuck could give the planet another couple of months if he quit flying his private jet to all those climate conferences and got rid of all his flatulent polo ponies.

I totally agree! We were raised with respect- for institutions, the environment, our flag, our communities. It’s in the very nature of a conservative. I always used common sense in regards to so-called climate change. My assumption is that weather patterns are changing like they have in the past. We’ve had ice ages before. Life & nature are cyclical. They’re just inventing an excuse to impose their socialism as always. I am totally in favor of making the environment better & moving toward cleaner everything & less waste. But, why do we need to redistribute wealth & create a huge government to do it. We dont!

Well, for crying out loud, Charles. You do know that 50 years has gone by since your dire predictions and the world is still in one piece, don’t you? I think if I warned anyone something drastic would happen when I was 50 years younger than today, I wouldn’t bring it up to remind them how lame it was!

Agreed! I just adore her! She’s been a steady hand & really dignified! I’m not hopeful about Charlie. He, randy Andy & Meghan/Harry are just a nightmare. Best thing she could do is hand things to William & Kate. Long live the Queen!

Nobody in the world has as much of an elitist entitlement attitude as Prince Charles ...and the ‘weakest’ royal of all.

Whew! For a second there, I thought March Madness would be cancelled.
