DOES MEGHAN WANT TO BE PRESIDENT? TRUMP NAMES HER AS HIS DESIRED RIVAL IN THE 2024 ELECTIONS
A former member of Tony Blair's government assures that Meghan plans to take advantage of the pull of her interview to launch her political career in the United States.
ADonald Trump would like to fight Meghan Markle in a presidential election. Asked yesterday about the rumor that the Duchess of Sussex is targeting the White House, the former president of the United States declared that he hopes "for that to happen", because "if that happens, I think I would be even more willing to introduce myself," he replied. on the Fox News channel in reference to the possibility of being a candidate again in the 2024 elections.
The former president also spoke out about the controversial interview that Meghan Markle gave two weeks ago, whom he criticized for the way she spoke of the British royal family. “I have met the queen and I think she is a magnificent person. And I'm not a fan of Meghan, ”declared Donald Trump.
The rumor that the Duchess of Sussex aspires to the presidency of the United States originated a few days ago as a result of statements to The Daily Mail by a former member of Tony Blair's government with "a strong connection to Washington." According to this anonymous Labor member, Meghan wants to take advantage of the pull that her interview has had to launch her political career and has begun to establish contacts with prominent figures of the Democratic Party. Her goal would be to "build the campaign and fundraising teams" necessary to have a chance in the next presidential election.
Something with which, on the other hand, was already speculated in February, when the meeting that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had with the governor of California, Gavin Newsom, came to light at the time when he was looking for a replacement for then Senator for California and today Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris.
In September of last year, both Prince Harry and Meghan also participated in a Time magazine video in which they asked to participate "in the most important election of our lives" and "reject hate speech, misinformation and negativity in Internet". A few words with which, although they did not expressly mention any candidate, it was clear his support for Joe Biden and, above all, his rejection of Donald Trump, who already then attacked Meghan Markle saying that he was not a "fan" of her and that he wished "good luck to Harry, because he's going to need it."
The environment of the Duchess of Sussex took it as a sign that she would end up becoming the first female president of the United States. "One of the reasons why Meghan did not want to renounce her American nationality was because she wanted to have the option of entering politics," a friend of Meghan's told the US edition of Vanity Fair. “She has her eyes set on the presidency of the United States. Meghan embodies the American dream and she could one day become president ”, had previously declared journalist Omid Scobie, co-author of the unofficial biography of the Dukes of Sussex.
The truth is that Meghan Markle has important support within the Democratic Party. This is the case of Michelle Obama and Hillary Clinton, who in recent days have supported her friend - that is how Michele Obama has referred to her in the past - for the statements she made about her during her interview with Oprah Winfrey.
“It is disheartening that an incredibly capable woman like Meghan Markle, who fell in love with Prince Harry, was not welcomed not only by 'The Company', which is what they call the bureaucracy surrounding the royal family, but also by the British media ”, lamented this Monday the former first lady and former candidate Hillary Clinton during a virtual interview with the Washington Post newspaper.
