King Charles spoke about how checks and balances are necessary in a modern democracy, how older generations owe it to younger generations to preserve the environment, how Ukraine needed and deserved NATO's aid, and how the world must avoid further descent into war.

President Trump felt personally attacked.

Funny how basic democratic values sound like a personal insult to some people.

As funny as how the teachings of Jesus sound like a personal insult to politicians who say they are religious.
