But if that miscue about Charles III’s title can let DeSantis, using a DeSantis-appointed Attorney General get a DeSantis-appointed judge to invalidate the terms of Disney’s maneuver and thereby wrest control of Disney’s land back into the DeSantis-created and DeSantis-controlled fake Board of Directors, well …
You can see how well that plays into the rest of DeSantis’ plans for law and Order personal power.
As he just announced via tweet in the currently breaking Trump indictment situation; abiding by the actual law is for losers, not for me and my pals.
Indeed. This isn’t a court circular or a manual on etiquette. Use of the correct formal title is neither here nor there; all that matters is whether the person referred to is clearly identified. Are we in any doubt at all about who “King Charles III, king of England” refers to? No. Then we’re good.
But I can sure see some CT wackos running with this. e.g.
Disney has been suborned by the UK royalist badguys. All that wrapping themselves in the flag stuff Disney is so famous for? It’s all a hoax. All true-blooded RW 'Merikans must boycott all things Disney.
And with that DeSantis gets his wish. A depression settles on Orlando, he gets to close all the schools and colleges for lack of tax revenue, while increasing the police budget, then he gets to rule over yet another ignorant hellhole like the rest of rural FL.
I know that Nimuë is a bit bonkers, but is she really any worse than an “electoral college” or choosing the leader according to their relative charisma?
Focus, people, we have a month and a week for HisMaj the Chuckster to get smeared and the Big Bling laid upon him on Kentucky Derby Day. Let’s not get distracted (and I can imagine which event will get better ratings).
But aye, alas, unlikely to have aquatic ceremonies since though the Thames is pretty much right around the corner, it’s the Lady of the Lake, not of the River.
…aides had been told that Biden reportedly has other commitments, which is why he cannot go to the coronation.
However, one source claims that there “may still be some efforts under way to see if Biden can be persuaded to come to the Coronation”, while another said that his plan to decline the invitation was “not locked and loaded”.
The late Queen’s funeral was, AFAIK, the very first major state event in the UK that was attended by the US president. The norm is not attending.
(Until recently, I would have assumed that Joe Biden would not attend because it was once considered a violation of etiquette for another head of state to attend. But there have been quite a few reports that various heads of state have been invited, which probably means that old rule has gone down the tubes. I guess that was inevitable for the first coronation of the jet age.)
