Trump attacks the one woman of color in British Royal Family

[RandySF]

Days ahead of his first state visit to the United Kingdom, debate is raging in both the U.S. and Britain over President Donald Trump’s use of the word “nasty" in relation to America’s most famous royal, Meghan Markle.

The president, who is prone to creating controversies overseas, employed the descriptor during a pre-trip Oval Office interview Friday with the British tabloid The Sun, after a reporter invoked comments Markle made three years ago that were critical of then-candidate Trump’s White House run.

Markle, whose royal title is the Duchess of Sussex, is on maternity leave with her three-week-old son, Archie, and will not join other members of the royal family in meeting with the president.

“She can’t make it because she’s got maternity leave. Are you sorry not to see her? Because she wasn’t so nice about you during the campaign. I don’t know if you saw that,” the Sun asked Trump.

6. Once again, this whole trip by the Orange Blunder is based on a commemorative observance...

of the 75th anniversary of the D-Day invasion.

Whomever was President of the US at this time would've been invited to participate, along with representatives of many of the other nations who were involved in the invasion. Sadly, the person installed in the office of POTUS currently is an under ripe cheddar cheese wheel.

This is NOT AT ALL about Trump although there are those in the Republican Propaganda Machine (Read: Faux News) who are trying to make it seem to be a state visit centered on Trump.

They should be ashamed (if they knew what the word meant) for hijacking this event and anyone who believes their hogwash should be ashamed as well.

7. Irony: a modern American fascist attending commemorative ceremonies for the people....

who helped stomp fascism out of Europe the last time it raised its ugly head.

Trump's presence there spits on their sacrifice and memory.

9. Ironic that he used the word "nasty"

When he's the one that watched Russian hookers pee on each other in a hotel room

10. What would you expect from a dyed-in-the-wool racist?

I am glad she will refuse to meet him and keep her child away from him. I hope Prince Harry gives him a piece of his mind at the very least.
