The Trump Effect—First U.S. President to Receive This High Honor from UK Royal Family

Donald Trump is about to return to the Oval Office, and the world is holding its breath—The Trump Effect is upon us.

After four years of what many have described as lackluster leadership—many more see it as deliberate treasonous destruction—in Washington, the triumphant return of a man many consider to be America’s greatest showman is nothing short of historic—perhaps even a God thing.

This from thepatriotjurnal.com.

This time, Trump is poised to achieve more than ever. The world—bruised and battered by indecision and global uncertainty—will now have to grapple with the force of a leader who makes no apologies for putting America first.

Global leaders are already adjusting their postures, ensuring they are on Trump’s good side. After all, history has shown that being a friend to Trump pays dividends—sometimes literally.

As the world aligns its chess pieces, even the British Royal Family appears ready to roll out the red carpet—yet again. Rumor has it their next move will be nothing short of historic, sparking speculation about how closely the Windsors plan to align with Washington’s new-old regime.

From Breitbart:

Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump is reportedly set to become the first elected head of state to be hosted for a second state visit with the British Royal Family.

After having had the red carpet rolled out for him in Paris for the reopening of the Cathedral of Notre Dame, President-Elect Trump will make history again by being invited back to London for an official state visit with the Royal Family for a second time, The Telegraph reports.

Not even Winston Churchill was given a second state visit by the British Royal Family, and he was practically British royalty himself.

According to The Telegraph:

[N]o elected politician has received such an honor since 1954, making Trump’s encore visit another headline-grabber in his already colorful political career.

What’s behind this unprecedented invitation? Officially, it is the convenient overlap of new monarchs and new governments.

But let’s be honest—this is less about calendars and more about diplomacy.

Britain, battered by a shaky economy and weighed down by high taxes, cannot afford a trade war with Trump’s America. Prime Minister Keir Starmer may have campaigned as a leftist firebrand, but even he knows that a friendly Trump is better than a tariff-happy Trump. Starmer’s decision to offer a second state visit screams of realpolitik: use the Royals, spare the economy.

Trump’s influence isn’t just felt in London. His recent visit to Paris for the reopening of Notre Dame underscored his global celebrity status.

As the bells of the cathedral rang out, world leaders could not help but take notice. Meanwhile, in Britain, Starmer’s government is sweating bullets over U.S. tariffs.

During Trump’s first term, he was a vocal advocate for a post-Brexit trade deal. But Britain fumbled the ball—badly. The coronavirus pandemic, political dithering, and Labour Party antics left the deal dead on arrival.

Starmer is now betting on Trump’s famously soft spot for the Royal Family to reset relations. It’s a gamble, especially given the insults hurled at Trump by senior Labour officials.

Foreign Secretary David Lammy’s past tirades, calling Trump a “tyrant in a toupee” and worse, are unlikely to be forgotten, even with a palace banquet thrown in for good measure.

As Trump threatens to impose tariffs across Europe, Britain is hoping to dodge the bullet. Starmer’s playbook seems simple: flatter Trump, leverage his Anglophilia, and pray he is willing to forgive and forget Labour’s previous slights.

The stakes could not be higher. Britain’s economy is still reeling from pandemic lockdowns, and the last thing it needs is a trade war with its biggest ally.

The Royal Family’s involvement is not just ceremonial. They are a vital part of Britain’s soft power, and Trump has shown he loves a good royal spectacle.

He is also likely to enjoy the irony of a left-wing government groveling for his approval.

As for the Royals themselves, it seems they are game for round two, likely toasting Trump with more pomp and circumstance than ever before.

Final thought: What a pleasure it is to be witness to The Trump Effect returning prestige, power, and glory to our beloved country.
