As an American patriot I could care less about royalty. We already have a political version going on here.

I have never cared about royalty, either. But I have even less interest in those royals who could not do the minimum of work required to live their lives of luxury.

The reason why we Yanks should care, is because the 18-25 yr old Brits LOVE the Grifters. This Oct 2020 poll shows Harry polling higher than William and Meeghan polling only three notches below Catherine in the 18-24 year old lot. Further, Charles and Camilla both poll about 20 notches below the kids and wives with this youth group.

The Grifters' poll numbers go down as age goes up, but those folks will be dead in 20 years.

We should care, because if that younger group remains enamored with the loser couple, don't be surprised if a movement sweeps the U.K. to kick William off the throne after Charles dies in favor of the more "wokey" brother...and if THAT kind of French Revolution mindset grips the U.K. Youths, it'll prolly grip America's youth.

When I was in the Air Force stationed over in England at the very end of the cold war, I did a small amount of traveling on the weekends and I got the impression that probably about a 1/3 of Great Britain people could care less about the Royalty too. That was like probably 30 years ago or more. I'm sure by now it is more like half of the county could care less about royalty and are probably infuriated about all the money that goes to the royal family.

Right. We kicked the royals out in 1781 at Yorktowne, and we have no business having any concern for the lot of them.

Same here. I'm not fond of the Brits. Their monarchy is one of the reasons I don't like them.
