In an abrupt about-face, King Charles III of the United Kingdom announced on Monday that he was downgrading Donald J. Trump’s upcoming state visit to lunch with Prince Andrew.
Instead of Windsor Castle, where the state visit was to be held, the lunch between Andrew and Trump will now occur at a Pizza Express restaurant in Woking.
According to royal sources, Andrew was “incandescent with rage” when his older brother informed him of the engagement, but the King told him, “Sorry, chap, you’ve got to take one for the team.”
After Andrew asked what he and Trump could possibly talk about over their pizza, Charles suggested, “Maybe you two can reminisce about your good times with Jeffrey Epstein.”
Since this wasn’t on NotTheOnion, I almost bit until I saw the meeting would happen at a Pizza Express. As funny as it would be, I think the British monarchy has way too much pride to take Donnie to the British equivalent of Dominos.
idk why though, since Trump would probably be much happier at a dinner in McDonalds than any fancy British restaurant.
The Pizza Express thing is a reference to when Prince Andrew tried to deny having sex with underage Virginia Roberts by claiming he was at a birthday party at a Pizza Express in Woking on the evening it is alleged to happen.
Oh lmao, I’d heard the two mentioned together before but never had that additional context.
And we discovered that he does not sweat.
Did the birthday party alibi in Woking turn out to be false?
No, he just paid her £12 million to keep quiet.
Ah, so no reason to suspect foul play then, it’s all settled with carrots and sticks?
