Sky News<\/a> was brought to a halt for a breaking bulletin, as correspondent Mark Stone shared US president Donald Trump<\/a>\u2019s true feelings about King Charles<\/a> after the UK-US state visit. A banner flashed up at the bottom of the screen reading: \u201cBreaking news \u2013 US president speaks to Sky News about royal visit\u201d, as Stone spoke live from Washington DC.<\/p>\n

He explained: \u201cLook, it\u2019s worth pointing out that [Trump] picks up the phone and he does it quite regularly with reporters in the United States, and increasingly beyond as well \u2013 that is his nature. So we thought it would be a good idea to get his sense of how this state visit has gone. Just after he bid farewell to the King and Queen at the South Portico, I spoke to him.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cAs he has said publicly and as his face demonstrates, he loves the Royal Family, and he loved this trip. He clearly thinks that every part of it went very, very well indeed. These are the images of the farewell that took place on the South Lawn an hour or two ago. I asked him about the trip itself, he said, \u2018The King\u2019s just left, he\u2019s a fantastic guy\u2019, and he heaped praise on the Queen as well.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stone confronted Trump on the King\u2019s \u201cpointed\u201d speech to Congress<\/a>, explaining: \u201cI asked him about the speech to Congress, he said, \u2018I thought it was fantastic, it was a brilliant speech, it was delivered beautifully with that beautiful accent that he\u2019s got.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom everyone there was a standing ovation, I thought it was fantastic in all respects\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cI pushed the president on the slightly pointed nature of this speech \u2013 it was a very carefully crafted speech, it was a masterclass in diplomacy, because within it the subtext was pretty critical of Trump. I\u2019m not sure whether he chose to ignore that, because he likes the King so much, or whether he didn\u2019t recognise it.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn response to my question, that there was an emphasis on this speech on alliances, partnerships, the importance of America remaining at the heart of NATO, the president simply said, \u2018He [the King] is a much different person than your prime minister. Your prime minister has to learn how to deal the way he deals, and he\u2019ll do a lot better.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Stone pushed Trump on Starmer, adding: \u201cI said, \u2018Do you think this visit will improve your relationship with Keir Starmer<\/a>?\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cHe said, \u2018I can tell you one thing \u2013 our relationship is very good, but you know, that\u2019s another individual, we will find out. But I like Keir Starmer very much, I think he\u2019s made a tragic mistake on immigration and a tragic mistake on energy\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sky News was brought to a halt for a breaking bulletin, as correspondent Mark Stone shared US president…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":617189,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4,450,12,451,2153,8832,267761,3,5416,116908,258319,183832,452,453,3479,267760,267759,258318],"class_list":["post-617188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news","tag-breakingnews","tag-donald-trump","tag-headlines","tag-king-charles","tag-king-charles-iii","tag-king-charles-trump","tag-news","tag-royal-family","tag-sky-news","tag-sky-news-breaking","tag-sky-news-latest","tag-top-stories","tag-topstories","tag-trump","tag-trump-age","tag-trump-breaking","tag-trump-latest"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617188","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=617188"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/617188\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/617189"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=617188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=617188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=617188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
