Overview

  • Author Craig Brown's book alleges Queen Elizabeth II privately criticized Trump after his visits.
  • Trump disputes the claims, asserting he had a great relationship with the queen and was her 'favorite president.'
  • A former Buckingham Palace official contradicts the book, stating the queen found the Trumps wonderful guests.
  • The queen's discreet nature and non-partisan stance make it difficult to verify either account.
  • Trump's interactions with the queen included breaches of protocol, adding complexity to the narrative.
