He's fucking trolling, goddamn you people believe anything
Don't even bother reporting this drivel.
Does he sit on the floor of the oval office getting high and sending out memos? "Man, wouldn't it be cool if we were like, you know, part of this kingdom man..."
" "I Love King Charles. Sounds good to me!" Trump wrote in response to the report." He sounds like he's been invited on a date.
He's giving positive replies to whatever dumb shit his followers post to him on mastadon. And the media is still trying to milk him for all the clicks possible. Covfefe shit all over again.
There's real shit to be worried about. Like the extra-judicial deportations, ie Mahmoud Kahlil.
The USA can join the Commonwealth by becoming a Territory of Canada. Just give us a sec while we change the rules on representation in the house of Commons.
Hold on, let's ask George Washington and see what he says, oh right, fuck you traitor.
Benedict Arnold at least had an understandable (if stupid) reason to flip sides. Trump's just an idiot.
He's high, stupid, AND suffering from dementia.
Good lord, this is a strange timeline.
If Russian speaking parts of Ukraine should be ceded to Russia by Trump's opinion, English speaking parts of the USA may just as well join England again.
I understand the plan now. America was great when it didn't exist
Welcome to reverse 1776. We are living in the twilight zone.
Technically, I don't think that being in the Commonwealth as it exists in 2025 would actually change much. It's a pretty loose organization these days. More than a third of the world's population is in it.
Being in the Commonwealth realms, which are the Commonwealth members that have King Charles as head of state, would, I suspect, be unconstitutional.
EDIT: All that being said, I think that it's reasonably safe to put this in the "distraction" category of Trump statements, rather than the "serious proposal" category.
Man I think it's been 20 years since anyone gave a shit about the Commonwealth Games. I wonder if real young people are even aware they were once a thing...might even still be.
Benedict Orange.
Benedict Donald
Can we dump Trump into the Boston harbor?
And hold him there.
I'll get working on the lead boots.

No taxation without representation, but in reverse.
No representation without taxation? Close but not quite
No representation but taxation? Yeah, that sounds better.
Also to note its kinda funny after all this time the us has been degrading in political choice (don't blame me I voted for Kodos) and voice (representation) while the common wealth nations have mostly been doing fine with more then two parties.
Trump swearing loyalty to King Charles wasn't in my predictions for this year
Take a picture of Trump kneeling in front of King Charles and share them to Maga world
there are 56 members of the commonwealth of nations. of those, only 15 are commonwealth realms. the rest are republics or a different monarchy.
india was the first republic member when they transitioned from dominion (with british monarch as head of state) to a republic in 1950.
commonwealth members need only recognize king charles as the 'head of the commonwealth', which is a purely ceremonial position.

Awww fuck this.
Benjamin go get the musket!
Tally ho, lads!
He's just shitting in the punchbowl, ignore him and hell play himself out.
I don't think USians should fight this.
As pear shaped as the UK may be at the moment, it must be better off than all the nonsense in the US. Though there really is nothing in it for the Commonwealth, in any event.
I'll be expecting my meme royalties, cheeky bastards!
This is just another stupid Friday distraction to keep people from talking about other crimes being committed

The French are already asking for the statue of liberty back, so it’s only right if he does that
We thought the Cold War never ended, but it was actually the Revolutionary War all along
Britain rips off a Russian mask and gallops away laughing while sipping tea
What is even happening
Am I the only one who things this is way more insane than 2016-2020? He did tell people to drink bleach but that is borderline stable.
