*Donald Trump wants to debate Meghan Markel to address “the way she dealt with the Queen,” the former president told radio host Hugh Hewitt.

“Let’s set it up. Let’s go do something. I’d love to debate her. I would love it,” Trump told Hewitt on Wednesday,” The Daily Mail reports. 

“I didn’t like the way she dealt with the Queen. I became very friendly with the Queen. She was an incredible woman,” Trump said. “I think it’s not a good situation going on with the two of them, but I didn’t know that they don’t like me. Somebody mentioned it might be possible. They wouldn’t be the only ones.”

Trump paid tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II, who was 96 when she died, in an op-ed for DailyMail.com

“At 95, she was so sharp. She was 100%. When you watch Biden, you say this is a different planet,” Trump said during the interview.

Back in 2019, during a conversation with Nigel Farage’s radio program, Trump weighed in on Meghan’s public battle with the British press, and had the nerve to say she’s taking the critical media coverage “very personally.”

“I’ve been watching her interviews and I’ve seen it, and she’s taking it very personally. I guess you have to be a little bit different from that,” Trump told Farage, TIME reported. 

“She takes it very, very personally and I can understand it. I don’t know her—I will say, I’ve met Harry, he’s great,” he added.

Meanwhile, last month, Trump became the only sitting or former U.S. president to have a booking photo taken.

As EUR reported previously, citing CNN, Trump surrendered at the Fulton County Jail in August on more than a dozen charges stemming from his efforts to reverse Georgia’s 2020 election results, the fourth time this year the former president has faced criminal charges. Trump agreed to a $200,000 bond and other release conditions, including not using social media to target the co-defendants and witnesses in the case.

Trump covered the cost of his $200,000, bond by putting 10% toward it and working with a local Atlanta bonding company called Foster Bail Bonds LLC, sources told CNN.

Following his release on bond, Trump told reporters, “It’s a very sad day for America. This should never happen. If you challenge an election, you should be able to challenge an election.”

Per Mediaite, he continued, “I thought the election was a rigged election, a stolen election, and I should have every right to do that. As you know, you have many people that you’ve been watching over the years doing the same thing, whether it’s Hillary Clinton or Stacey Abrams or many others,” Trump said. 

“When you have that great freedom to challenge, you have to be able to otherwise you can have very dishonest elections. What has taken place here is a travesty of justice. We did nothing wrong, I did nothing wrong, and everybody knows it,” he explained.
