Summary

Donald Trump is upset after King Charles warmly welcomed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at Sandringham, making Trump’s own state visit invitation seem “less special.”

Trump’s allies allegedly asked the British government to intervene, but officials stated the king makes his own decisions.

Relations may also be strained by Trump’s criticism of Canada, where Charles remains head of state.

The U.K. government denied tensions, reaffirming strong U.S.-U.K. ties.

    Goddamn, Trump is literally my entitled cat.

    If I give my normal cat a treat, it’s bad, because I didn’t give one to the entitled cat.

    If I give both cats a treat, it’s bad, because I didn’t give the entitled cat more.

    If I give the entitled cat two treats, it’s bad, because I also gave something to the normal cat.

    King Charles should welcome him to a dungeon under the Tower of London.

    That’s so hilariously pathetic.

      It’s not for the bullshit reason he said, he’s probably realizing his meeting with Zelenaky was a trap to make him look like a child who takes orders from Putin.

      If he’s not that self aware, he’s just mad that other countries are supporting Ukraine and wants them to stop.

      But just because trump says ______ is the reason he did something, doesn’t mean its more than an excuse.

    Trump should be glad: he’s uniquely special because his special is the short bus kind.
