“Trump was very abrupt and had to have an agreement with Melania”

A new biography about Elizabeth II delves into the figure of one of the most relevant figures of recent times. A Voyage Around The Queenby Craig Brown, is published on August 29th but In the United Kingdom the storm is already movingSo much so that this Tuesday, August 20, a first excerpt from the book was published. The opinion of the British sovereign, who died two years ago, on Donald Trump is revealed.

He Daily Mail publishes this fragment and carries the news on its front page this Tuesday: “Throughout her reign, Elizabeth II entertained many controversial foreign leaders, including Bashar al-Assad, Robert Mugabe, Idi Amin, Donald Trump, Emperor Hirohito and Vladimir Putin.”the author recalls in the book.

It should be remembered that the sovereign received Donald Trump on two occasions during her reign, in 2018 and 2019. Elizabeth II, according to the author, did not have a good impression of the Republican: “A few weeks after the president’s visit, for example, [la reina] He confided to a lunch guest that he found Trump very rude..

Charles III’s mother had the feeling that the politician was looking down on her, as if she were not interesting enough. Something that “he particularly disliked”according to the writer.

But Elizabeth II not only found Trump particularly “rude”, she also had her own theories about the former president’s marriage to Melania Trump: “She also believed that President Trump must have some sort of agreement with his wife Melania, otherwise why would she still be married to him?”.

On the other side of the coin are the statements Donald Trump has made in public about the monarch: “I think this shouldn’t be happening to her”lamented in 2020 after the decision made by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to leave the British Royal House. After the death of the queen, he also said: “She was an extraordinary woman… She did so well for so long… She never made a mistake”.

On their meeting in 2019, Trump recalled: “Well, we were just going to spend a brief moment and just We got along really well and spent a lot more time together than people thought and it was a really nice thing. We had good chemistry.And then, as you remember, that night there was a big celebration and I sat next to the Queen, and we just talked all night. It was amazing. She was amazing to talk to and so intelligent. Her mind was so agile and just being with her was something very special.“.

The trip by the former president and his wife in 2019 lasted three days. In addition to the various events, there was also a state dinner at Buckingham Palace.
