      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.

      I really wish removing a president wasn’t so difficult. We’re all staring at the train wreck being told it’s completely normal for a train to be running off the tracks.

      Might be easiest to join a ready made monarchy in that case. All you have to do then is claw your way through the ranks til you reach the throne. No need to change the constitution. :)

          I just started watching Black Adder, so I’m glad I was able to get the joke. Great show for those who haven’t seen it btw.

            I got the black adder spoonerism but not the rest of the joke. Is it worth asking? I haven’t seen the show.

              I don’t think it’s a specific reference, but Black Adder follows a series of fictional incompetent royal family members throughout history all played by Rowan Atkinson. Some of my new favorite work from him.

    What the fuck? I know it’s Donald Dump, but despite all the insanity happening since his inauguration this is the first headline that manages to surprise even me. Dude’s talking about annexing Canada and Greenland on one hand, but then bows to the former UK colonial project? What?

    GG Trump, I honestly did not see this one coming.

    Actually, you know what, that’s a great idea orangeboi. Let’s go for it.

    To the Brits: considering this is basically us coming back to you hat in hand, I think it’d be quite reasonable to exact some sort of penance from us. Perhaps we could surrender our President to the King’s tender mercies? Hell, you can just take the whole Republican Party if you want to make some old-school object-examples of what the appropriate treatment of fascists is.

    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.

      Sounds more like a Musk idea.
      I can see his gigantic ego and narcissism telling him he needs to wear a crown and scepter.
      Then surely the plebs will finally respect and validate him.

    As non-functional as it is, we don’t need to make it ten times worse. If this happens Elon and Trump will likely behave like they own the rights to every resource on the eastern members of CW.

    Also trying to side with an openly fascist, sexist, racist president? King Edward III much?
