Donald Trump said he «would like discuss Meghan, Duchess of Sussex as he criticized her relationship with the late Queen.
When asked if he would date the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, the 77-year-old former president urged radio host Hugh Hewitt to 'set it up' , adding, «Let's do something. I would like to argue with her. I would really like it.
The Duchess of Sussex previously called Trump «divisive» and «misogynist» ahead of his 2016 election victory before marrying Prince Harry. She said she would move to Canada if he defeated Hillary Clinton and became the 45th President of the United States.
Speaking on Wednesday, Trump accused Meghan of «disrespecting» Elizabeth II and said he «didn't like the idea that they got US security when they came here.»

He said: “I didn’t like the way she treated the queen. I became very friendly with the queen. She was an incredible woman.
“I don't think there's a good situation going on between the two of them, but I didn't know they didn't like me. Someone mentioned that it's possible. They won't be the only ones.»
In the interview, Trump also compared the Queen's cognitive abilities to President Joe Biden.
«At 95, she was so sharp,» he said. “She was 100 percent. When you look at Biden, you say that this is another planet.”

Commenting on the ongoing legal drama, Mr. Trump also told Mr. Hewitt he was «looking forward» to testifying in the Mar-a- Lago.
But those remarks became the front-runner for the Republican nomination. in 2024, another blow was struck when a federal judge ruled that the former president was liable for defamatory statements against E. Jean Carroll.
The judge ruled that the jury in the former magazine columnist's second libel suit must decide only how much money he has to pay her in damages.
Judge Lewis Kaplan said a federal jury's verdict earlier this year against Trump — that he was responsible for the sexual assault — would be carried over into a libel case that goes to trial in January. The upcoming trial will focus on Trump's 2019 statements about Ms. Carroll's sexual assault allegations, as well as comments he made on CNN following his May verdict.
Ms. Carroll alleged that Trump raped her at the Bergdorf Goodman department store in the mid-1990s and then slandered her when he refuted her claim. Ms. Carroll was awarded $5 million in damages in May.

The District Attorney's Office confirmed that «all defendants should be tried together.»
All defendants pleaded not guilty to all charges of widespread racketeering and alleged attempts to cancel the results of the 2020 vote in Georgia. The former president claims that his actions were not illegal, and the investigation is politically motivated.
