Andrew and Charles and Trump

I have a thought about what Charles could do here, and I hope he does.

There's not an animal low enough to compare Andrew to, so that's a given. The same applies to Trump. Remember Trump's constant talk about Charles' wife? He swore he could have her any time he wanted. Didn't just say 'dated', used the F word. After the divorce, she complained he wouldn't stop calling her. He simultaneously thought of her as his best hope of finally breaking into classy society, and as a piece of meat for his bedpost notching. This was pretty public.

There were other slights against Chuck's mother, the Queen; public demonstrations of disrespect. Both Elizabeth and Charles had to put up with this revolting cretin and Charles still has to. That's got to really frustrate the hell out of him, that he can't treat Trump as Trump deserves.

Now we have Andrew and the consequences that he's going to be facing for the rest of his life. Assuming he's convicted, and I have every confidence that he wouldn't have bothered to cover his tracks because of his position, he's going to be in prison. Charles is cooperating because he doesn't want the royals to be slimed any more than they already are.

I think if Charles gives the go-ahead, a lot of pressure can be put on Andrew. Andrew was there. Andrew knows everything. And a British prison is going to be tough to arrange a 'suicide'. Since he's a child rapist, he doesn't have the guts to stand up to anything that the authorities, or any adult, could legally do to him. They wouldn't even need to promise him a puppy.

Bringing down Trump, while saving the reputation of the royals, would be the ultimate revenge for a literal lifetime of insults to his mother, and Diana, during and after the marriage.

C'mon, Chuck!

I think you got it a little mixed up. Charles and Diana had 2 sons - Crown Prince William and "spare" Prince Harry.

2. Charles' *mother* was Queen Elizabeth. I don't think Trump was ever interested in her,

since she was 25 years older than Trump. Are you thinking of Princess Diana, Charles' ex-wife?

mentioned Charles' divorce. It refers to Diana and to Charles' mother, the late queen, to whom Trump showed little respect.

I corrected it. The protocol disrespect was to Elizabeth, the sexual insults to Diana.

4. If Charles won't or can't bring chump down, there's still William with whom to contend,

should chump - God forbid - live so long. No doubt Will is up to the task and eager to avenge the insult to his precious mother.

Trump wants to do King shit, maybe he should get his wish against a real royal who can kick his ass.
