At a press conference, Donald Trump launched a personal attack on Duchess Meghan. She had previously called for voting – in the video you can see the attack by the US President.
US President Donald Trump (74) is apparently mad at Duchess Meghan (39) and Prince Harry (36). In a press conference Trump made it clear that he was "not a fan" of Meghan, who had previously called for votes. "I wish Harry the best of luck, he'll need it," said the US President when a reporter noted that the couple had "essentially encouraged people" to vote for Trump rival Joe Biden, 77.
Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan, who have been living in the US since the spring, appeared on "ABC" on Tuesday evening to celebrate the announcement of the annual ranking of the 100 most influential people in the world by "Time" magazine. The couple used the TV appearance to promote voter registration for the US election (November 3, 2020).
"The most important choice of our life"
Meghan said: "Every four years we are told, 'This is the most important choice of our life. But it really is. When we vote, our values are put into action and our voices heard." Her British husband, who is not allowed to vote in the US, took the opportunity to appeal against online hatred: "As November approaches, it is crucial that we reject hate speech, misinformation and online negativity. What we consume (…) has a real impact on us all. "
The British royal family named Harry's comments on the US election – the royals usually do not comment on political events – his "personal" views, as the Daily Mail reported. According to this, Buckingham Palace wanted to make "no comment": "The Duke is not a working member of the royal family and any comments he makes are made in a personal capacity. "
Prince Harry and his wife moved their one-year-old son Archie from England to Los Angeles in March after stepping down from senior royals. They now live in Santa Barbara near Los Angeles.
