I don’t think Meghan and Harry are above reproach especially when it comes to the political views they air...but I also am tired of things falling along partisan lines with everything. Even if one is not the couple’s biggest fan, it’s easy to see that the Royal Family has issues — most glaringly right now being its cover up of Prince Andrew — and they need to be held to account.

Guilt by association? That's not how it should work. The one issue has nothing to do with the other. A family member with intellectual curiosity could have speculated about the genetics of an expected child in a way that could have been a positive or joyful anticipation, but which Harry and Meghan are turning into a weapon for their own perpetually self-victimizing reasons, having been coached by the Obamas and Oprah.

What is not easy to see is the role of the Royal Family in British governance and culture, and how significantly it differs from American assumptions. There's nothing to be gained by re-fighting the American Revolution against the nation that has been our firmest global ally since the mid-1800s.
