Donald Trump Claims to Be Queen Elizabeth II's Favorite President Amid Controversy

Featured Replies

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has recently refuted claims made in an upcoming biography of Queen Elizabeth II, which alleges that he was "very rude" to the late monarch during their meetings. Trump insists that the opposite is true, declaring that he was, in fact, her favorite president.

The controversy arose from excerpts of the biography *Voyage Around the Queen* by Craig Brown, currently being serialized in the *Daily Mail*. The book recounts a series of events and interactions between Trump and Queen Elizabeth II, including a particularly striking incident in which the Queen reportedly confided to a guest that she found Trump’s behavior during their meeting to be quite rude. According to the book, she was especially displeased with how Trump seemed distracted, looking over her shoulder as if searching for someone more interesting to engage with.

In response to these claims, Trump vehemently denied the characterization of his behavior, telling the *Daily Mail* that he and the Queen actually got along very well during their encounters. "It was totally false. I have no idea who the writer is, but it was really just the opposite," Trump stated in defense of his conduct. He went on to add, "I heard I was her favorite president."

The book also suggests that the Queen harbored suspicions about Trump’s personal life, particularly his marriage to Melania Trump. It alleges that the Queen speculated to a guest about the nature of their relationship, wondering aloud if Trump and his wife had some sort of arrangement, given the challenges that their marriage might face. Despite these supposed private doubts, Trump remains confident that he left a positive impression on the Queen and was one of her favored guests.

 

Trump’s interactions with the British Royal Family have often been a subject of media attention and public scrutiny. His admiration for the Royal Family is something he frequently mentions, attributing it to his Scottish mother’s fondness for the monarchy. This affection, however, did not shield him from controversy during his visits to the United Kingdom as president.

 

In 2018, Trump met Queen Elizabeth II during an informal trip to the UK, a visit that sparked widespread protests across London. A year later, during an official state visit, Trump found himself at the center of a minor diplomatic faux pas when he placed his hand on the Queen's back, a gesture that broke royal protocol. Despite this breach of etiquette, Trump praised the Queen, referring to her as a “great, great woman.”

 

As Trump campaigns for a return to the White House in the upcoming November election, his past interactions with international figures, including Queen Elizabeth II, are likely to continue to be a topic of discussion and analysis. While Trump remains confident in the positive nature of his relationship with the late monarch, the differing recollections presented in the biography suggest that the true nature of their interactions may remain a matter of debate.

    She was honest and told it like it is in her book. Very few world leaders liked or respected this goon. Of course he would refute that. He cares not one iota for truth and would not know reality if it

  • Donald Trump Claims................that's enough for me. The late Queen was smart enough to know this grifter is no good! Even her Corgi's avoided him so it's rumored!

He cares not one iota for truth and would not know reality if it but him on the ankles. He loves to be ugly, but he refuses to acknowledge that everything about himself is ugly. 

 

He is unappealing, and unattractive, and is idiotic, incompetent, hateful, hurtful, abrasive, rude, blowhard, liar, cheater, thief, infantile, failure, loser, fraud, sexual abuser, incestuous, tax cheat, insurrectionist, un-American, dictator-loving dictator wannabe, out of control, sociopathic, convicted felon, toxic narcissist & brutish A-hole.

 

Everything about the con-man referred to as Trump is unlikeable. He's everything wrong with the human animal, all stuffed into one specimen.

Hummm,

 

We can always ask the current president.  He's known for talking to dead politicians, maybe he can do "royals" too.

From the images in the OP. he is the very definition of buffoon, yet that cannot be entirely true.

It is, believe me it is. And it is way beyond anything you can imagine. Ask any world leader he met. Ask anyone who worked under him in his administration. Anyone. Ask any of his cousins and many of his family members. Ask any contractor who has done work for his companies.

my personal experience and opinion on his winning the presidency was because even more Dems hated Hillary so crossed over to vote against her and for Trump!

 

  • Popular Post

One of the reasons why Harris/Walz will win resounding is because they are doing a great job of representing our better angels and our higher selves. Trump on the other hand represents only our lower nature and our worst tendencies. Few want a man with such a profound lack of grace, dignity, intelligence, depth, compassion, regard, and elegance as a world leader or president of the US.

It seems Queen Elizabeth was very close to President Trump and enjoyed his company. I think they both had the same ideology.

I’m sure she will in her own time and her own choosing not that of trump or his enablers.

Yes, but an opinion is not a fact, so repeatedly saying nobody likes someone that got 74 million legal votes is quite ridiculous.

 where are these claims? Is there an in context unedited link to him saying these words. The Queen never officially said anything, now she is dead there is no wby to verify anything,  speaking ill of the Queen just to get a cheap shot at Trump basically. Typical gutter press

That is true. Locking people up for Facebook posts, that's what people claim Putin and Kim do.

Her Majesty was personally frugal, had a strong personal religious faith, and was driven throughout her long lifetime of service to the country by a strong sense of duty. She rarely, no, practically never, made known her personal views on people, or politics.

 

So much in common with Trump!

A great number of people are concerned with his 'normal' behaviour.....enough to ensure he becomes a two time loser.

 

His behaviour might be 'normal' for a white, uneducated, no college, US male.....but that is not appropriate behaviour for the leader of the free world.
