Donald Trump makes dig at Harry by praising William as King Charles' 'remarkable son' during state banquet speech

forgot this:

“Mr Trump also claimed the King had helped wounded veterans ‘like nobody else’ during the glittering dinner at Windsor Castle for his second historic state visit.”

[theyreallthesame]

He didn’t mention Pricess Diane either... so what?

[pfflier]

Media created tempest in a teapot.

[Segovia]

Polite discourse is not the Donald’s strong suit.

[iamgalt]

Leave to the Trump hating children at the mail to twist a compliment into an attack on someone not mentioned.

[DesertRhino]

“And kind old King George sent Mother a note when he heard that Father was gone
It was, I recall, in the form of a scroll with gold leaf and all
And I found it one day in a drawer of old photographs hidden away
And my eyes still grow damp to remember his Majesty signed with his own rubber stamp”

[Political Junkie Too]

Maybe President Trump only praised William because he's heir to the throne and Harry is not? and also because William was there in the room at dinner

[Skwor]

The lack of a mention being interpreted as an oversite is utterly ridiculous.

Charles literally revoked Harry’s royalty back in May 2025, the media could have just as easily said Trump was kind not to mention Harry, showing great restraint given the current Royal family problems. Suppose a liberal said exactly what Trump said that is how they would have reported it.

We can never hate the media enough and never distrust them enough!

--- "We can never hate the media enough and never distrust them enough!"

Second the motion, and validate the thought.

[Segovia]

and the Tigers went free.

[MikelTackNailer]

I’m thinking the President would rather be back riding that garbage truck about now. Cleaner and a lot less icky.

[bray]

Of course he is going to complent the future king.

[Texas Eagle]

Uhhhhhh...Harry is not Charles’s son.

[nikos1121]

These dumbasses said Trump was “cringy” for telling Kate she was beautiful to her face.

[silent majority rising]

No, it was not a dig. Scumbag son was not there.

[quilterdebbie]

OMG, he was just complimenting William, who was there!

[Jamestown1630]

Nonsense.

[RummyChick]

I believe the protocol is not to mention harry at all. He is basically persona non grata at this point.

Typically, in a normal situation you would mention harry because he is living the US. bring up bonds of allies blah blah blah.

But Harry is basically like Wallis simpson and her cuck.

So basically you dont bring it up

this is for everyone. unless the King mentions

This may also be true for Prince Andrew.

Prince William was not having anything to do with Andrew as andrew tried to engage him at the funeral. It was the equivalent of the William Scarfing Markle incident without the scarf.

[Texas Eagle]

Omygosh. Have you ever seen the photo of Harry and Diana’s bodyguard side by side? They look like twins.
