I like monarchs who do not visit wannabe dictators.

@randahl I'm not really bothered by it. It is part of our monarch's job to be nice to unpleasant foreign dignitaries. Charles seemed to do a decent job of boosting Ukraine's cause to Trump the last time they met. https://edition.cnn.com/2019/06/01/uk/uk-controversial-visits-trump-intl/index.html

From Assad to Xi, the Queen has met her fair share of controversial leaders

The Queen has entertained a variety of heads of state with grace and diplomacy during her 67-year reign. Ahead of Trump’s state visit, here are some of the most contentious world leaders to have met Britain’s monarch.

@jgrg I understand your point, and I agree that is the thinking behind it.

However, while they all try to please Trump for favors, they are also delivering the narcissistic supply, which keeps him confident that he is right. They feed his ego and keep him going.

I think it is time to stop feeding the monster and instead break him down.

@randahl @jgrg , couldn’t agree with you more. I wish our monarch would cancel his visit to the WH this month
