Trump swings from gushing praise for King to scathing criticism of Starmer in five-minute call with Sky News
Sky News ^ | April 15 | Mark Stone, US correspondent

Posted on 04/15/2026 1:19:41 AM PDT by RandFan

The president and I spoke an hour after Buckingham Palace announced details of King Charles and Queen Camilla's state visit to the United States.

His tone and his language revealed to me how distinctly he differentiates Britain's royals from its politicians.

He also revealed that he did not know that the King's visit is taking place at the request of the government.

Trump has a blind spot for “royal” charlatans.

As far as I can determine, it goes back from Trump’s early memory of his mother gushing over Queen Lizzie.

Utter Nonsense. However predictable.

British Influence on the United States.... The British influence on the United States is profound and multifaceted. From the foundational principles of the Mayflower Compact to the structure of the U.S. government, British political practices have left an indelible mark on American governance. The Magna Carta and the English Bill of Rights have been instrumental in shaping the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution, guaranteeing individual liberties and protections against arbitrary rule. The U.S. Congress, like the British Parliament, is a bicameral system that balances popular representation with a more deliberative body. The separation of powers between the executive, legislative, and judicial branches is a direct carryover from British political debates about limiting royal authority and empowering Parliament and courts. Additionally, the U.S. legal system is based on the English common law tradition, which relies on judicial decisions and precedents rather than solely on written codes. These influences continue to shape American political philosophy, law, and governance today. Also, the great British thinkers of the Enlightenment.

Maybe change your posts to another language other than ENGLISH. LOL!

The axis of Western Power has now shifted, from Western Europe to the Persian Gulf.

* * *

That's quite a prediction.  Over the long term, it may turn that direction.

Wikipedia has a has a list of countries by GDP.

The the first Middle East player is Saudi Arabia (19th) above Switzerland, then Israel (25th) above Argentina, then UAE (29) above Norway.

So it will take a lot more decline in Europe before we see the sun-soaked nations of the world surpass the temperate climate ones.  Though one key exception is Singapore (27th) where is shaded only by the Equator's ring :-)

This is interesting...

Donald Trump stalls release of Prince Harry's visa records until after King Charles III's state tour, as tensions between the US and UK escalate Prince Harry's long-awaited US visa documents have been quietly delayed- with the timing raising eyebrows ahead of King Charles III's high-profile American visit.

What did Starmer not know, and when did he not know it??

Sky News Video

The government has responded to reports that the Foreign Office overruled the decision on Lord Mandelson’s failed security vetting clearance prior to his appointment as UK ambassador to the US.

A government spokesperson has confirmed this is correct - but said neither Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer or any minister was aware until this week.

Mandelson was sacked in September 2025 after further details emerged about his links to Jeffrey Epstein. He has previously denied any wrongdoing in regard to his relationship with Epstein.

Look at the gtrend of ever diminishing economic return for Europe.

Nato has freduced itselfto a NWO reset socialist boys club who all have had their noses pinched by the rectum pf Klaus Schwab. Not only is Europe stuck with this idiocy, so is Canada under NWO idjot Carney, who has prevented oil development and now faces the exit of 4 Western provinces to the United States.

Europe’s support of Hamas, its refusal to even allow US use of bases or overflight has now cemented the decline of Europe. They will have to purchase oil from America or Russia.Many will chose Russia.Ukraine’s only hope is to participate vigorously in the shifting axis of power from Europe to the Middle Eastern Levant including Israel, The Gulf States, Pakistan, Egypt and a soon to be newly created Iran.The world is buying oil and gas from the USA.The USA supervises and guarantees the distribution of Gulf State /Iranian oil AND controls the Panama Canal, The Straights of HOrmuz and the Straights of Malaca. The US doller is once again deeplyh secured as the Worlds reserve currency.

Europe and CANADA ARE now finished, they are on the road t9o becoming versions of Zimbabwe, and complete economic decline.THeir only savation lies in the election of populist governments , and returning to the traditional values of freedom so desperately fought for and established during WW II.Do not hold yuor breath.They refuse to change even in the face of great opportunity offered the by US leadership, but now that door is closing. They will have a socilisst utopia with their streets full of Muslim rioters and garbage before long.

It's ironic. Several centuries ago, the Christian nations rose up to support the Crusaders to stop the Moslem invasion.  Now the big Crusading countries like France, Germany, and variou

Gustave Dore created 10,000 highly detailed wood engravings and his Crusade pieces are extraordinary.  I'm also a fan of his Rime of the Ancient Mariner series.

I must admit: in many cases, the impact of these "old technology" artworks are often more compellingly than works from our digital age.  Though image libraries such as Google Images have made "ancient" art far more accessible -- and kept art history alive.

Finishing my thought from the post I just sent:

Now the big Crusading countries like France, Germany, and various other place are being steadily "conquered" by the unregulated migration of Third World People.

And the Catholic Pope is actually encouraging this upheaval.  Poop Leo is no friend to Italy or any other State in the EU, alias Europe Unraveling.

The madren daty battle is between the Civilized State (America and allies) and the ancient composite “god” Allah movement.

The NWO , open-borders crowd, who are surrender monkies in this battle, operate a socialist boys club organized by Klaus Schwab.They are uncivilized. They rest behind elitis wealth and pretend concern for the peop;le of theor res[pective dopmains who they regard as serfs in a dying middle class, devolving the basic democratic freedoms achieved by theoir predecessors in WWI and WWII, into a form of Muslim parallel submission.

TRump heads up the woreld wide effort to combat the NWO by establishing a world wide endeavour of submission-less prosperity, even including the prosperity of enemies in this effort, while establishing the lights of civilized freedom and peace.As his plan unfods we begin to see its vastness, as do the NWO socilaist boys club of Europe, and it infuriates them, and Trumps obvious success further infuriates them.

The Peoples who elected their socialsir boys club will soon turn on them, as they see their respective economies become very much like that of Zimbabwe.CAnada is a prime example, with British Columbia, ALberta, Saskaychewan, and Manitoba all vying for an exit from the confederation of Canadian provinces now under the draconian socialist whacko Libera; Party who hold them back. It may be a brief civil war between these provinces and Camada’s DEI deranged military until Presidet Trump assists these provinces by sending in the US MArines.

Peaceful co prosperity is represented now by PDJT, America, Israel , The Gulf States, Japan,Taiwan, Indonesia ) Malacca Straights), South Korea, Poland, Latvia , Estonia ,Denmark, as well as Venezuela..

The world is barely waking to this genuine New Order,as the legacy media is doing everything it can to prevent the peoples of the new Western Civilized allies from understanding what is happening.But the word is getting out, and soon the Socialist boys clubs will soon begin to descend into the dust bin of history.

Well done, Candor7... a fine picture you paint of the holy war between Trump and the New World Order.

♝ ♞ ♜

Trump combats the NWO with his world wide effort to deliver a new era of submission-less prosperity — even including the prosperity of enemies — while shining the beacon of civilized freedom and peace.

As Trump's plan unfolds we begin to see its vastness.  And members of the NWO socialist boys club of Europe become infuriated at Trump's obvious success.

The world is barely waking to this vision as the legacy media does everything it can to prevent the peoples of the new Western Civilized allies from understanding what's going on.

But the word is getting out, and soon the Socialist boys clubs will begin descending into the dust bin of history.

Wonderful comment, MotorCityBuck. The influence of Great Britain on our legal system and the shape of our Republic is profound and should not be forgotten by Americans.
