Trump further stated that his mother had a crush on King Charles. "But I also remember her saying very clearly, 'Charles, look, young Charles. He's so cute,'" he said. "My mother had a crush on Charles. Can you believe it? I wonder what she’s thinking right now," the US president added.

King Charles, known for his witty speeches, reminded Trump that the British liberated the Americans from the French influence. "You recently commented, Mr President, that if it were not for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Dare I say that if it wasn't for us, you'd be speaking French," King Charles said.

Apart from this, the US president also claimed that King Charles also thinks that Iran should not possess nuclear weapons. "We have militarily defeated that particular opponent, and we're never going to let that opponent ever- Charles agrees with me even more than I do-we're never going to let that opponent have a nuclear weapon," Trump said.
