Queen Elizabeth II’s strong reaction to Trump’s behavior when he visited UK revealed in new book
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a bombshell new revelation, it has emerged that Queen Elizabeth II found Donald Trump to be "very rude" during his UK visit.
The late monarch, who hosted the former US president twice, reportedly took issue with his habit of glancing over her shoulder in search of more engaging company. Additionally, she speculated about his relationship with Melania, suggesting that it might involve "some sort of arrangement".
Queen Elizabeth put off by Donald Trump’s behavior during their meetings
According to Craig Brown's new book, 'A Voyage Around the Queen', Queen Elizabeth II found Donald Trump's behavior during their meetings to be quite off-putting.
According to the biography, the Queen confided to a lunch guest weeks after one of Trump’s visits that she found him "very rude".
"A few weeks after President Trump's visit, for instance, she confided in one lunch guest that she found him 'very rude': she particularly disliked the way he couldn't stop looking over her shoulder, as though in search of others more interesting," Brown states in the book, as per DailyMail.
Brown also noted that the Queen speculated about Trump’s relationship with his wife, Melania.
"She also believed President Trump 'must have some sort of arrangement' with his wife Melania, or else why would she have remained married to him?" the book claimed.
In contrast, Donald Trump was reportedly confident that he had been one of her favorite guests, claiming, “There are those that say they have never seen the Queen have a better time, a more animated time,” according to an interview with Fox News.
Buckingham Palace has declined to comment on the biography, adhering to their usual practice of not commenting on books or personal accounts.
Internet says Queen Elizabeth was always a 'good judge of character'
After discovering Queen Elizabeth's comments about Donald Trump, many social media users have shared their reactions.
One user penned, “The Queen always was a good judge of character."
The other wrote, "Of course she did as she was famously known for making comments about people she met."
The third shared, "I am surprised he reached RUDE standard."
One user slammed, "Hes worse than rude."
Another said, "No she didn’t. She might have thought it but she was a woman with morals and dignity and would never had said such things."
One stated, "This is not astonishing. Everyone can see Trump is a very rude and weird person. Our Queen called it right. No one can be surprised."
The last user wrote, "Well, he is very rude. Surely even he can't deny that? All he does is insult people."
How many times did Queen Elizabeth II met Donald Trump?
Queen Elizabeth II first met Donald Trump in 2018, a year after he became the 45th US president. The visit was controversial, with protests in London and a giant 'baby blimp' balloon depicting Trump. Because of the political controversy, it was not a 'state visit' but a 'working visit,' which involved less formalities and no state banquet.
Trump’s meeting with the queen took place over tea at Windsor Castle, with no other senior royals present, although there was an inspection of a guard of honor. During this visit, Trump was reported to have kept the 92-year-old monarch waiting for ten minutes in the heat and walked in front of her during the guard inspection, forcing her to sidestep to stay beside him.
Trump was granted a formal State Visit the following year, where he behaved much better. He was polite and charming to staff, and the queen invited his four children and their spouses to a State Banquet. However, during the visit, Trump made a blunder by giving a toast that broke protocol as he placed his hand on the queen’s back. He also joined the queen in Portsmouth to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day.
Trump later boasted to Fox News about his “great relationship” with the queen, claiming they had a lot of fun together. He expressed sadness at her death, calling her a “grand and beautiful lady” and praising her exceptional service.
Former White House adviser Fiona Hill noted that Trump was “awestruck” by the queen and saw meeting her as a major achievement. Trump often spoke of his mother’s admiration for the queen. Before their first meeting, he said he looked forward to it and admired her representation of her country.
