Snubbing King Charles' coronation shows he hates Britain
Nothing personal, guys — he just can’t stay up that late anymore.
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] It was the fateful moment in 2020 when Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. We hold these truths to be self-evident. All men and women created ... by the — you know — you know, the thing...
made abundantly clear to the world that the Anglophilia of his predecessor was about to be brutally kicked to the curb.

Already plotting to have the bust of Britannia’s greatest ever leader Winston Churchill banished from the Oval Office, a viral video emerged of the then president elect being asked for comment during the campaign by the Donald Trump
...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
-hating BBC.

’Mr. Biden, a quick word for the BBC,’ the British Bashing Corporation’s New York correspondent Nick Bryant hollered.

’The BBC? I’m Irish,’ Biden replied with a threatening glare, before breaking out into a demented grin.

That obvious disdain, which I am prepared to call out as both monarchy and Britannia-hating, has continued throughout his presidency.

Be it consistently backing Ireland and the EU during highly sensitive Brexit negotiations, slamming ex-PM Liz Truss publicly for trying to cut taxes, or siding with the ghastly Prince Harry
and Princess Meghan Markle
...unlikable American former starlet married to the formerly likable Prince Harry. Chock full of lefty political opinions, Markle's most important characteristic is that she is Black, even though she doesn't look it. Her mother, y'see, is half black and her father is white, which would make her a quarter Black. Her half brother described her (to her husband, before their marriage) as a jaded, shallow, conceited woman that will make a joke of you and the royal family heritage. Once married, she was too good for the Royals and she and Harry decamped to Beverly Hills, kind of like the Clampetts did, thus making a joke of Harry and the royal family heritage...
over their fake Royal Family racism claims to Oprah Winfrey.

Never has it been made clearer that the special relationship is spluttering on in spite of the occupant of the White House not because of him.

The historic coronation of King Charles III this May — one of the most important days in modern British history ­— should have been a moment to change all that.

Travel and protocol have transformed in the 70 years since the last coronation, when Dwight D. Eisenhower was in power.

If Biden were prepared to show respect for the UK, there could be no better way than turning up at Westminster Abbey on Saturday, May 6, alongside dozens of other heads of state the world over, including all three presidents of our political enemies over at the EU.

#1 I think Camilla is the one that despises Joe Biden partly because he farted loudly while being introduced to her and Biden didn't apologize.

If he hates the BBC, then there's some hope for him!

#9 More like his handlers can't control the situation like other places and don't want to show his cognitive decline.

#11 According to recent WH press releases, FJB makes well honed foreign policy moves. 'Well honed' like a butter knife.

#13 I would recommend checking to see if Joe ever donated money to the IRA but he would just start babbling about his retirement plan in an episode like the Spinal Tap sexy versus sexist confusion.

#14 At least this way they won't have to worry about reupholstering his seat.

#15 ^^^^^ My thoughts exactly.
1. Jojo has incontinence issues that would cause major embarrassment during the hours long coronation ceremony.
2. Jojo thinks at times that he is the actual President, not a stage prop, amd hates being un-important in any event. His stage managers know that he cannot speak/converse extemporaneously and would be capable of un-hinged behaviors or remarks.
3. The Magic Kenyan hates the Brits, so letting Jojo play the Irish Fool card just covers that up nicely, but insiders in the international community see the fingerprints of who remains in charge, as intended.

#16 The Brits would like to feel insulted, but they're actually glad he's not coming. If they can keep Kamala from saying anything in public, shapes up to be a nice ceremony. Maybe Extiction Revolution can glue themselves to the dome of St Paul's. A grand time for all.
