Personally I’m in favor of keeping Harry Windsor “hostage” here in the United States as long as possible for the express purpose of using the prospect of further embarrassment to keep our Commonwealth allies in line.
Oh, you don’t want to agree to such-and-such trade or defense deal? It would be *deeply unfortunate* if someone were to pick up the red telephone on their desk labeled “Oprah Winfrey” and have her do another tell-all interview with certain pair of Californians…
Considering how well this sort of hostage situation has worked for the royal courts of England and France over the centuries, it’s only fair we should get to use it, too. Though for starters we should make the Ragland-Spencers pay for their own court attire and accommodations, much like the Louises did with the aristocrats they kept hostage at Versailles.
Wasn’t it Andrew Sullivan who was busted for having pot on him while on federal grounds, only for the Justice Department to say, whoopsie, we don’t want to screw up his visa renewal?
If any more of the Royals die, I think my mum is going to have kittens. She bawled for a really long time when the Queen died. "I grew up with them," she tells people, which sounds like she knows them personally,, and says it matter of factly, like everyone should know this. It actually means she "grew up with watching them on the TV and hearing them on the radio."
Dude, Harry is as much a monarch as his uncle Andy was. Once his brother had children he is no no longer in the line. It goes to his nephew after the deaths of his father and brother
I have no affection for Harry Windsor but he is not a monarch, and is in fact in conflict with the British monarchy. Thus I have no choice but to critically support him and his wife in that context.
I say send him back to his homeland as well. Which is Germany cuz they’re fucking German and the fact everyone goes along with the “Windsor” facade is insane. Although given Trump’s family’s history with name changes he doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on there I suppose.
I don't see anyone objecting to Crown Prince Pavlos and Princess Marie-Chantal of Greece living in the US (OK, the Greek Royals were deposed in 1973, but there could be a coup, you never know!)
Harry will never be King, I presume he pays his taxes, Meghan is still a US citizen, which means their children are as well. As long as the US Gov't isn't paying for his security, why do you care?
wait - now Trump is in favor of consequences for lying on your paperwork? This motherfucker truly contains multitudes.
There is, actually, one sure-fire way Harry could remove himself from the line of succession: he could convert to Catholicism.

If you’re talking about an I130 application, there are no drug questions on it to obtain spousal benefits.

Could Trump’s threat be an extortion attempt? He’s really crunched for cash.
