IIRC, it was a Halloween party about 15 years ago. Whatever the case, bad form from the third in line to the made up Royal throne.

It was from a costume party about a decade or so ago.

Still, really poor choice in costume.

No.

Her name was Wallis Simpson and she was hideous. I haven’t been here long enough to figure out how to post pics.

You're right.

But what does that say about Britain and their Royal family?

Their scared to draw the ire of Trump's Twitter?

Surely you see the irony in that case.

Wait...so context matters now?


I mean, during the election they’d take pictures of trump mid-wave and they’d say he was literally hitler. Context and false narrative be damned.




But you have Harry dressed up in a literal Nazi outfit and their all concerned with “context” now...


For the record, I don’t care. I think all costumes are fair game, no matter how “offensive”

I just hate disingenuous people who conveniently forget their “principles” when it affects their side.

Considering he is the President of the U.S I would say it is relevant. It speaks of his character and I do not agree with how he uses his position to fight personal battles.

Well the Daily Mail is reporting it as well......somewhat more integrity than The Sun.

1. I don’t see how that’s “ironic”.

2. This is almost assuredly fake. The only reason it’s believable at all is because everyone knows that inviting Obama and not trump would likely infuriate trump.

It will put Obama on a world stage again. The entire planet is going to watch the wedding and you have Barry and Michelle strutting around looking presidential before Trump has even been to England as President and had his audience with the Queen. So I can understand why the Foreign Office wants to put the kibosh on Obama's invite.

I agree it's fake, but not without merits.

Ironic in Britain government taking Trump head on, yet kow towing in fear of his Twitter reprisal.

Ever more so ironic, when you understand that British Royals have zero influence other than pop culture.

As a point of formal practicalities, Trump will more than likely be invited. Up to him if he wants to go. As you stated earlier, if you have ever followed Trump, I wouldn't be surprised to tell the Royals to eat a horse turd and not show up, as they are unimportant puppets.

Sorry Trump tried to frick your mother, William and Harry.

Harry and Meghan have been hush hush on who first set them up; all they will confirm is that it was a mutual friend who set them up on a "blind date" and they won't reveal who it is to protect their privacy.

Royal watchers seem to think this means that the person that set them up is famous in their own right.

There has been much speculation that the matchmaker was Michelle Obama.

Harry is particularly close to both Obamas on a personal level and it makes perfect sense - especially if Michelle introduced them - that they would be invited regardless as to who the current president is.

I think the dilemma comes into play because Trump has shown to be especially petty in regards to ANYTHING having to do with the Obamas and despite their close relationship with Harry, Trump will take offense to not being invited just because the Obamas are invited.

If the Obamas aren't invited, Trump won't give a frick if he and Meliana aren't invited but if the Obamas are invited and the Trumps are not? Then watch the frick out because The Great Orange One will throw a bitch baby shite fit. NOT because he wasn't invited but because the Obamas ARE.

I’ve seen plenty photos of her, even a color one. She’s not pretty even with her hair down.
