Prince Harry says Trump is not welcome at his wedding: Trump is a serious threat to human rights

[4now]

England’s Prince Harry is getting married, to the disappointment of aspiring princesses everywhere, and it’s looking like president Trump will not be on the guest list.

Meghan Markle is an American citizen and Donald Trump might expect an invitation to the wedding, expected to take place next spring.

However, Prince Harry is reportedly privately highly critical of Trump, with US Weekly reporting earlier this year that he “is not a fan” of Trump.

“Harry thinks the president is a serious threat to human rights,” a “close source” told the magazine.

I don't know the source but I liked the title.
It also mentions that the Obamas will be invited.

1. Fake wedding!

[treestar]

39. lol!

[lunatica]

61. Now watch him tweet disparagement at the bride to be or maybe Queen Elizabeth herself.

[Brainstormy]

65. Or England generally. Or

Europe. Or people who speak English. Or . . .

[smirkymonkey]

2. Good. I would be very disappointed at them if they invited the tacky Trumps

Please Harry, don't invite them. They will only make a sordid affair of it.

[defacto7]

27. Tisk, tisk. I dont see the Trumps in the registry.

Sorry old chap. Next time round, expect. Cheers old boy.

[GusBob]

3. Some things are better left unsaid

Now the wedding becomes all about Trump whether he is invited or not

And either way he steals the attention that he craves

It would be best to ignore him

[Chemisse]

33. That's what I am concerned about.

Trump would love to engage in a public tit-for-tat about it, which would likely taint the event. He destroys everything he touches.

[Matilda]

63. Given that Trump publicly said Diana was crazy,

and boasted that he "could have screwed her if I'd wanted to", his chances are zero.

Both princes adored their mother, and they won't forget his insults.

Pity he never learned to keep his mouth shut.

[Scarsdale]

64. Diana

found him "creepy". He sent lots of flowers to her, and she was disgusted by him.

[Grassy Knoll]

4. Don The Con Sez:...

..." Sadly The Best President Ever (me) Will Have To Turn Down The
Invitation, I Like Ginger's That Don't Marry 1/2 Black Woman"

[wryter2000]

60. Wish we still had DUzy's

[onenote]

5. Actually, nowhere in the article does it quote Harry as saying Trump isn't welcome

He probably isn't, but the article takes some liberties.

[3catwoman3]

6. Harry thinks the president is a serious threat to human rights."

Harry is right.

[lunasun]

7. Trump may consider him a race traitor . Bad ops for his base to participate anyway

[0rganism]

46. "the Brithish royal elites are throwing another of their tacky parties - can't attend 2 busy #MAGA"

the sour grapes cometh

[Angry Dragon]

8. I'm going

[KT2000]

10. Me too

guess I'll see you there!

[Angry Dragon]

11. I guess we will

Good Guinness there

[KT2000]

12. be sure to wear a DU

bumper sticker so I can say hi!

[Angry Dragon]

13. okay

[doc03]

9. I read a few comments on Yahoo News today about the wedding. There was

one racist comment after another from the assholes that always weigh in on anything political.

[adigal]

14. William and Kate didnt invite the Obamas when he was POTUS

There is nothing that says Trump has to be invited.

I wonder if Harry will wear that Nazi uniform for his wedding? (Ducking now from flames defending Harry’s honor!) 😏

[cwydro]

17. Wow, you just cannot let this go.

[Hortensis]

19. Obsession, $19.06 a bottle at Walmart.

$10 at Walgreens.

[cwydro]

24. Lol!

I read the other thread in disbelief.

[adigal]

38. Arent you cool, jumping on mocking me?

I notice how absolutely bullying people who I assume are decent in real life are online. What is the point of your comment, except to mock me publicly and make you feel like you are smart znd cool. Like, to defend Harry’s honor, people are complete assholes to another person here.
I teach junior High and see your bullying behavior every day.
Enjoy your mockery. Hope you feel better about yourself. Sad!

[Hekate]

74. Oh please, after the really obsessive-compulsive all-caps repetition of "nazi" uniform...

...you expect everybody to just forget? Having an intact memory is not the same as bullying.

[steve2470]

28. totally off topic but my favorite haha nt

[LanternWaste]

44. Refutations of a wedding seem rather like grade school petulance as well.

Refutations of a wedding seem rather like grade school petulance as well.

But I'm certain you'll rationalize your own behavior as just, righteous and pure in the face of adversity (the dramatic adversity you face in this case though, is merely a lack of ill will towards the royal family-- so I realize the desire for melodrama to lend it credibility beyond what it warrants)).

Grade school children do indeed, hold others to a higher standard then they hold themselves to.

[ATL Ebony]

50. LOL, Priceless Hortensis.

[JI7]

18. William and Kate married in 2011. The Obama's and Harry have spent time together

[malaise]

30. Perfect

[secondwind]

32. The Obamas didnt go because the security would have been a nightmare and

they also didn’t want to be a distraction. Your obsession with Harry is quite disturbing.

[adigal]

37. Thanks for the unasked for observation

Bully

[dflprincess]

68. And they were scheduled for a State visit a month or so after the wedding.

Ooohhh that's something else that can eat at Trump, Obama got a state visit!

[treestar]

41. the British sense of humor is different

from ours, so that may not have been seen as literally as we see it. At any rate, it should not condemn him for all of his lifetime.

[sarge43]

57. Weddings, unlike funerals and coronations, aren't state sponsored

State affairs require invites to recognized heads of state who usually send a representative, if at all. Weddings are entirely the call of the families; they can be as elaborate or simple as they choose.

[dflprincess]

69. Give it up

I imagine his grandmother raked him over the coals for that stunt and it's been a long time now.

[Skittles]

15. aw you KNOW the Obamas will be there!

[DAMANgoldberg]

16. This may not be a problem come wedding day.

According to published reports, it's looking like the Spring of 2018.
IMO: There will be a different president than the human occupying the office now.

[syringis]

21. It is very kind of you to call...

...that weird piece of sh** squatting the OO a human

[DAMANgoldberg]

23. Sorry, brought up with some manners...

He is as you described, but as my momma always said: "he/you will have to answer".

[Denzil_DC]

20. Big if true.

But "close source"? Huh.

I suspect to save embarrassment all round, Trump will be too busy golfing elsewhere/gnawing his leg off to get out of his manacles to attend, and nobody, but nobody will even notice his absence.

If he did attend, he'd be driven to be that guy who shouts out when the officiant asks whether anybody knows of any just cause or impediment why they shouldn't be joined in holy matrimony, just to get his fair share of the limelight.

There'll be enough hoopla on the day anyway without the grand distraction of an even more humungous security detail.

[Chemisse]

34. Expect an announcement soon that Trump refused an invitation.

I wonder if he can even fathom how stupid he looks on an everyday basis.

[Denzil_DC]

42. The soon-to-be bride propositioned him, he says.

But he was, like "Sorry, Meghan, I just couldn't do that to Harry on his wedding eve. Once you're hitched, though - call me."

[Chemisse]

45. Hahahaha!!

[Princess Turandot]

22. It won't be an official 'state' wedding...

even if they go for the full Abbey treatment. William's wedding wasn't either, because he was not the immediate heir to the queen. So they won't need to worry about inviting world leaders, following stricter protocol.

[Puzzler]

25. What did I say ...

Hah

Dolt 45 will go through the roof. And I will relish every f***ing nanosecond

[jberryhill]

26. You dont know the source? How did you come across it?

[PunkinPi]

43. It appeard to be satire....

Link to tweet

Here's a more reliable source - http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-prince-harry-meghan-markle-royal-wedding-invite-2017-11 (Doesn't say in BI article that Trump "isn't welcome." )

[jberryhill]

54. I was simply driving a the hit-n-run OP with the "I don't know the source" routine

These people think we are really stupid.

[PunkinPi]

56. Gotcha, some don't know we "see" them...lol nt

[mahatmakanejeeves]

48. It's fake. See reply #47. NT

[jberryhill]

52. That was the essence of my question

I am sometimes amused by these "I found this news article" posts, which don't mention where they found it, and it is some cookie-cutter template thing.

Now, we do have a couple of posters here at DU who essentially use DU to clickbait their own re-hashed "news" sites, or "write stuff and get traffic" sites.

But what was amusing about this particular one is coming in with a claim that they weren't familiar with the source. Well, gollly, howdja find it?

[area51]

29. I hope Prince Harry will invite Obama.

[JHB]

31. Prima Donnie would probably just shove the brides parents out of the way...

...for getting between him and a camera.

Hell, he’d do that to the groom’s granny.

[Chemisse]

35. Right after he gropes the bride.

We've seen that disgusting display before.

[Achilleaze]

40. Thank you, Prince Harry

[mahatmakanejeeves]

This is a fake news article. Spend ten seconds reading it and it’s clear. Please stop tweeting it, it makes you look dumb and makes your followers dumber.

[sarcasmo]

49. I turned down the wedding invite.

[jmowreader]

53. Oh man, why did you do that?

This will be a nice wedding. The couple is cute and charming, the venue is nice and I hear the food will be excellent.

[jmowreader]

51. How Harry and Meghan could REALLY piss off GST

Name the Obamas Best Man and Maid of Honor.

[dflprincess]

71. Or, at least, seat them with Harry's side of the family nt

[bathroommonkey76]

55. I doubt Trump will ever be a part of any Royal functions.

Donnie told Howard Stern a few years ago that could have slept with Princess Diana. There's no way in hell Harry, or any other member of the royal family would want to be in the same room with that sleazeball.

[wryter2000]

58. Oooh...

That'll really p*ss the Orange Abomination off. The Obamas invited but not him.

But then, Harry's Grandmum really liked the Obamas.

[IronLionZion]

59. Trump better be thrown out of office before the wedding date

he can tweet about it from prison.

[bucolic_frolic]

62. Who would want Trump at their wedding?

You never know what he's going to say or do. He's got a whole barrel full of quips like "Pocahontas". He might question someone's birth certificate or citizenship. Or comment on someone's curves or color of their hair.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

66. Trump tweet any minute now:

Attending Prince Harry's wedding probably is no good. I'll have to take a pass. Thanks anyway!

[bdamomma]

67. Harry telling truth

plus we know the Obamas will be there, HA in your face don the con!

[AllyCat]

70. Dont invite him Prince Harry!

He’ll ruin everything!

[dembotoz]

72. Good God they haven't even announced a date

Wouldn't I've great if they eloped

[NastyRiffraff]

73. Good move, Harry

Trump would pee on the carpet, stuff himself with the hors d'oeuvres, demand McDonald's delivery and ice cream (2 scoops!), and criticize everybody there who ignored him in favor of the bride and groom.

Honestly, who would want him as a guest to anything?
