Often revered as an astute judge of character, Queen Elizabeth II told friends that she found Donald Trump “very rude,” and mused that he must have “some sort of arrangement” with his wife, Melania.
The stunning claims are made in a new biography of the late queen which is being serialized in the Daily Mail. It also says that the late monarch “particularly disliked” Trump’s habit of looking over her shoulder, as if “in search of others more interesting.”
Elizabeth hosted Trump twice during her reign, in 2018 and 2019.
Still, for a queen to spill the beans on someone like this, not what I’d expected.
Except she didn’t, she kept it private.
Somebody else now wrote in a book she said that, which may or may not be true (I believe it). But she made those statements in private.
Maybe she said that, or maybe this is like the time The Sun’s psychic contacted Princess Diana and learned that she was (of course) a Brexit supporter.
Imagine being dead for decades and somebody contacts you to ask about politics. Like fuck off, I don’t care, I’m dead. Why would anybody who’s dead care about politics? Leave them alone.
I imagine most historical figures will be profoundly disappointed when they learn of modern politics… No god-emperors, no global communism, just a capitalist hellhole full of near-fascist governments. Mussolini might have a field day, but imagine summoning the ghost of Ramesses II or Vladimir Lenin into today’s political landscape
Is this the JD Vance school of caring?
Not that epitome of truth that is The Sun, surely?
This is coming from the mail, which has only ever been slightly more reputable than the sun. At this point, they could be tied
Oh, right! Biography, not autobiography. I see
