The king comes to the United States
Description
A popular protest slogan against President Trump is “no kings.” Last week, King Charles visited the U.S. and was feted at a lavish state dinner. Later, the White House social accounts shared a picture of Trump and Charles with the caption, “Two kings.” So how should we put this visit in context? Does the monarchy still matter? In studio:
- Colin Coffey, dual U.S./U.K. citizen and local business owner
- Peter Linebaugh, author and scholar
