King Charles III is on his first state visit to the United States as monarch, and addressed congress today.
The Washington Post: As the king spoke, the White House posted an image of Trump and Charles on X, calling it “TWO KINGS,” with a crown emoji.
My comment: The United States of America has no king.
Meanwhile, my latest purchase from an Ebay seller in London arrived yesterday, with a stamp on the envelope that features the king.
