Over the weekend King Charles called President Trump to make sure the events of this week were still secure following the attempted assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents Dinner.
Today, President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump welcomed King Charles and Queen Camilla to the White House. Video Below:
Today: President Trump and the first lady greet the king and queen “informally,” per Buckingham Palace. Then it’s off to a garden party at the British ambassador’s residence, just up the street from the vice president’s home.
Tonight: a formal White House welcome, complete with a ceremonial military review.
Tomorrow: President Trump and King Charles hold a bilateral meeting, while the first lady hosts Queen Camilla. Then the king will address a joint meeting of Congress — a rare honor. Queen Elizabeth II was the first monarch to do so, in 1991.
The day tomorrow wraps with a White House state dinner.
Before heading to New York, the royals will lay a wreath at Arlington National Cemetery, marking the military partnership between the U.K. and U.S. Then Thursday shifts south to Virginia (location to be announced), where the itinerary leans Americana: Appalachian cultural performances, a 250th anniversary “block party.” A national park visit focused on conservation and Indigenous communities. Then, separately, a horse farm stop for the queen. {Per Axios}
Not often but once in awhile the comment section to a Sundance post is not worthy of our great Treehouse. This is one! Sorry folks! For a group that professes tolerance, curtesy and respect this section reads more like a progressive site. I am embarrassed!
I’m not professing tolerance, courtesy or an iota of respect for a British monarch by birth. Any I might have had he destroyed with his sanctimonious idiocy.
?? How so?
God bless dear President Trump and our First Lady, the lovely Melania!
A man who chose Camilla over Diana lacks the judgement and decision making skill necessary for leadership.
The king claims rightful leadership of the Church of England.
I measure the success of his leadership by the health of that Church. As far as I can tell the patient is suffering from advanced apostasy.
