Often revered as an astute judge of character,Ā Queen Elizabeth II told friends that she foundĀ Donald Trump ā€œvery rude,ā€ and mused that he must have ā€œsome sort of arrangementā€ with his wife,Ā Melania.

The stunning claims are made in a new biography of the late queen which is being serialized in theĀ Daily Mail. It also says that the late monarch ā€œparticularly dislikedā€ Trumpā€™s habit of looking over her shoulder, as if ā€œin search of others more interesting.ā€

Elizabeth hosted Trump twice during her reign, in 2018 and 2019.

    Imagine being dead for decades and somebody contacts you to ask about politics. Like fuck off, I donā€™t care, Iā€™m dead. Why would anybody whoā€™s dead care about politics? Leave them alone.

      I imagine most historical figures will be profoundly disappointed when they learn of modern politicsā€¦ No god-emperors, no global communism, just a capitalist hellhole full of near-fascist governments. Mussolini might have a field day, but imagine summoning the ghost of Ramesses II or Vladimir Lenin into todayā€™s political landscape
