Donald Trump has one-sided obsessions with many prominent women, from Hillary Clinton to Megan Rapinoe to the Duchess of Sussex. Sidenote: I’ve always thought it’s notable that he’s never really attacked Michelle Obama, but I strongly suspect that even he knows that a huge part of the population will turn on him if he ever breathed a word about MObama. In any case, his obsession with Meghan has been a years-long catastrophe, the worst of which was when Meghan was being held hostage for several years in the UK during the Trump “presidency.” During that time, Trump would often gleefully take part in the smear campaign against her, calling Meghan “nasty” and saying that Harry would regret marrying her. One of the king’s sons has buyer’s remorse about his wife and it’s not Harry, I’m just saying. Anyway, Trump is still something of a royalist and he’s still talking about Meghan. Apparently, he wants to “debate” Meghan. The man skipped out on the Republican debate last month, but now he wants to debate a private citizen who is minding her business.
In an interview that aired Wednesday, conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt asked Trump if he would debate Meghan and Prince Harry, who “don’t like you much,” for the ratings. Naturally, the ex-president’s first instinct was to scoff at the idea that the pair doesn’t like him—even though they clearly don’t—and then suggest that the late Queen of England was a huge fan of his, which he’s done before.
“I don’t know that they don’t like me,” Trump told Hewitt. “I said that I don’t think they are very appropriate, what they’re saying, what they’re doing, and I didn’t like the way she dealt with the queen. I became very friendly with the queen. She was an incredible woman. At 95, she was so sharp. She was 100%. When you watch Biden, you say, this is a different planet. But they treated her with great disrespect, and I didn’t like it. And I didn’t like the idea that they were getting US security when they came over here. No, 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.”
Reminded of the actual question, i.e. would he debate the couple, Trump responded, “Oh, if you want to set it up, let’s set it up. Let’s go do something. I’ll, I’d love to debate her. I would love it. I disagree so much with what they’re doing.”
This reminds me so much of the Republican obsession/desire/hatred of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – she’s an attractive, well-spoken, desirable young woman and instead of just saying “wow, she’s pretty and smart,” Republican men scream and cry about how AOC should “debate” them. Basically, what I’m saying is that Trump sounds like he’s fascinated by and obsessed with Meghan and he’s desperately clout-chasing. “Debate me,” he wept, flop-sweating in between federal and state indictments.
(I’m actually shocked that Hugh Hewitt referred to Meghan by her title at first.)
Donald Trump tells Hugh Hewitt he would “love to debate” Meghan Markle:

The haters are more obsessed with Meghan than her stans
I am just simply appalled that of all women in the US, public politician women, the only person Hewitt would think of to debate Trump was Meghan Duchess of Sussex? Why? Out of 300+ million people in the US, why would even this Republican man think it was a wise suggestion for Trump to debate Meghan? Even if the Sussexes don’t like Trump, there are tons of prominent politician women that don’t like Trump, why not suggest he debates anyone of them? My goodness, these fools have freakinghardons for just anything Sussex related. I think they all have Harry for marrying their obsession. And of course stupid Trump fell for the stupidness and vomited all his stupidness out with “I would debate her”!! Like c’mon are they’all for real?
Right. I don’t get why people are still pretending this guy has a shot at winning. Even if 60% of republicans are voting for him no matter what, he can’t win without 100% of them plus independents. He is not a serious man or candidate and is just giving interviews for his ego before he tweets his way into a gag order/pretrial confinement.
I’m not american, so I really shouldn’t have a say about your election, but PLEASE don’t treat this as a safe win! Encourage every sane person to wote! It was horrible sitting on the sideline watching what happened in the US at that time. It’s even more horrible today with Roe vs Wade overturned. What’s going on in the red states with abortion bans, the religious war against science and women and rewriting the history of slavery is scaring people around the globe.
Lucy He does have a chance at winning. Republicans cheat all the time and they have passed hundreds of voter suppression laws since the last election.
Creepy, ugly a’holes and bottom-feeders, Hewitt & Trump, are just clout-chasing and gobble-gobbling for attention. They both need to GTFOH, back to their lowly existence in the pits of hell! 🤮 💩💀 🕳 💣
It was more than enough already for that narcissistic orange bloviating blimp to have ever been on a stage attempting and failing to debate Wellesley & Yale graduate, attorney, women’s and children’s advocate, former FLOTUS, past U.S. Senator, Madam Secretary, and my ‘first female President of the U.S. forever in my heart,’ the one and the only, Hillary Rodham Clinton! 💙
That totally disgusting orange F-off, has-been, never was, needs to get his skunk-a’hole out of our faces, and get Duchess Meghan out of his mind. He can’t touch her; he’s not on her level in any way, shape or form; forget debating her!!! The crazy fool! 🙄😖💤
Let’s refrain from giving this pissant jerk any more attention. He craves attention like a slimy, parasitic slug. 🦠 Yuk!
@loretta: Nailed it.
It’s what Republicans do. They are currently running against Hunter Biden. So Trump debating a private citizen is on par with that group.
It is so appropriate that Trump’s lips are shaped like a butthole because everything that passes through them is utter crap.
Nothing surprises me with this orange felonious idiot. He wants to debate Meg. This is the flotsam that the maga insane want as president again. He just spouts nonsense into the wind. Get out there and vote blue.
This beast comment was purely designed to stoke his base anger towards Meghan nothing more. Incredibly dangerous rhetoric from a delusional old man. Pretty sure it was whispered in his ear to make this comment. Attention for him and rage from the fringe element towards Meghan.
I shouldn’t be surprised that this orange monster skipped the R debate, but wants to stand behind Meghan, demean her on public, and probably attack her with his handshake. NO!
Trump couldn’t demean anyone, in fact, he’s too scared of being humiliated himself, which is why he avoided the Republican debates like the plague. The last time was required to participate in a debate, he expressed reluctance, then he made sure that his people negotiated to appear in the least number possible and then he bailed out even on those. He’s a coward. The most he could do to any smart woman he was debating was what he did with Hillary Clinton, which was to pout when she explained her position on the issues, then he paced behind her while she was speaking before approaching her from behind. Just a big, lumpy, orange coward. Oh, and as fixated as Piss Morgan.
Wut? Dumb Ass.
They totally have the hots for her. 😆
The last time I saw Michael Fanone (former Capitol police officer) on CNN, he said he wished T would have a stroke. It was a remark that seemed to shock the host, but honestly, I think most of us have thought worse. I wish something would make him disappear!
I’ve definitely thought worse. I have a friend who used to be a Republican, and who usually reserves any strong language for her horrible ex, who has said we would all be better off if one of his SS guys just quietly choked him to death.
I agree and I don’t feel the least bit badly about saying it. Or thinking it. All the time.
I must admit in the 2020 election I would tell my H some stupid thing that trump said or did and my H would just chant “stroke, stroke, stroke”
I wake up everyday and hope he dies. He’s a sex offender, a grifter, a con artist and an all around scum bag. He only wants to be president so he can grab more power and money. And the racist, ignorant, awful GOP that supports him deserve all that hell has to offer. And as someone said above, we need to take this election VERY seriously because having that disgusting criminal in office again with the GOP in power will be the end of democracy and this country as we know it.
Hummm. Stroke…doesn’t kill ’em but shuts him up!
I could go for that.
He has a chance of winning because a LOT of the dems I’ve spoken to are just going to stay home.
Meghan is the Queen of the World in some people’s heads so they forget that in the real world she is private citizen just living her life. So when royals and former presidents attack her THEY look crazy not Meghan.
Reminder: The BRF actually bickered amongst themselves to decide whom Trump would be inflicted upon during his visit. “Very friendly”, indeed. And after what he said about Diana, before she was even in the ground, I can’t help wishing that William had used his violent temper against someone who deserved it. He has no genuine respect for any of them, he’s just a pathetic clout chaser.
And needless to say, he can keep Meghan’s name out of his lying, racist, misogynistic, anus-like mouth.
And the BRF were all raging (rightfully, for once, IMO) when he tweeted it was Kate’s own fault she got papped sunbathing topless – the Windsors hate his guts! The comments on the DM were glorious the day that came up again, as Trump supporters and Derangers (often the same people) had to pick a side. Which they did, after the usual approach for dealing with such dissonance – Sunshine Sachs travelled back in time to create the fake Trump tweet while Meghan paid her good friends at the Mail to run the story – didn’t take … To my amazement, the MAGA sensibility won out so that was an interesting tidbit and confirmation that Kate’s support is very shallow.
The family are by instinct a bunch of supercilious xenophobic snobs, of course they don’t like Trump. He represents everything they despise (and I would argue that they do not like Americans at all) down to being an unabashed environmental vandal (who can forget the Queen moaning about the lack of environmental action from world leaders on a hot mike at COP 26?). That he would ever profess to cape for them is cynicism of the highest rank. The narrative that Meghan is an outlier for disliking him is bonkers, she is completely in step with most of the British establishment and people on that and he never even called the rest of us ‘nasty’! Even Boris ‘Britain Trump’ Johnson doesn’t like Trump! Even Trump’s wife doesn’t like him! FFS.
Horrible display of triangulation, it’s depressing that any American politician might feel it worth their time throwing the Duchess under the bus – whose benefit is this for? British people and tabloid newspapers can’t vote in US elections.
It wasn’t long after the Oprah interview when a meme was established on UK comment boards that Meghan (only Meghan of course… she disrespected the Queen on her own.. trying to remember how exactly… did she marry someone…? Name is on the tip of my tongue… Harvey? Nope, gone now… so this thing she did, she was on her own…) should be interviewed by Andrew Neill who nowadays cuts a sad figure as a toupee wearing failed GB News anchor willing to ply his trade to the highest bidder but was then the nation’s foremost political interviewer and feared for his forensic questioning to the extent that Johnson ducked out of their expected encounter.
They don’t say it, and I am loathe to put it into writing, but it was the same underlying impulse that led to Clarkson’s column. They didn’t like Meghan and so they want her to be made to undergo a public ritual perceived as being humiliating regardless of whether she has done anything to deserve it or as if she requires the same scrutiny as someone running for the highest office in the land. This Trump idea is part of a same vile mob mentality, regardless of how it would turn out in reality what they are enjoying doing is imagining the short fingered vulgarian haranguing and harassing her on stage. Next up: Meghan should be made to go on American Idol circa 2001 so Simon Cowell can eviscerate her singing abilities.
Trump would also get great ratings fighting the zombie Elvis in the ring but it’s never going to happen, what serious person would ever bring it up? And why keep insisting that the fact that it would get great ratings is what justifies repeatedly contemplating it? Pathetic.
She would WIPE THE FLOOR with him LOL
Do people realize how insignificant this is. It’s not even worth commenting on. Trump just lost his bid in the E Carrol rape and defamation case YESTERDAY! That’s all the papers are talking about. Ignore this crap!
Trump’s reaction is insignificant but the fact that Hugh Hewitt asked the question is astounding and bizarre
Well, the Queen didn’t have a problem with Harry and Meghan, so Trump can take several seats on that one.
Have they ever said anything publicly about Trump? I mean I’m going to assume Meghan can’t stand him, lol, but have they ever said anything about him specifically?
I KNOW one of the things that RANKLES KATE’S SOUL ..is the FACT that in a SHORT TIME…Meghan IMPRESSED QEII so much that SHE was afforded OPPORTUNITIES with the Queen that Kate will NEVA HAVE! i.e. that day trip with Meghan in the Queen’s private train…
💯💯💯 that day trip was just one of many things that triggered Kate, but I think it was a big one. That’s why she and William had to do that stupid train tour in 2021, she needed to be able to say that she had been on the royal train as well (or was that 2020? The one in December where the Queen publicly snubbed Kate on her return?)
Meghan did call him misogynist, when she was supporting Hilary Clinton 🤣.
Well, she wasn’t wrong 😂
Dump needs to focus on his legal issues rather than a woman who doesn’t want anything to do with him. Meghan’s haters are obsessed stans. Right wingers always seek attention from people who ignore their existence.
He can’t go a single day without a racist or misogynist comment. He should focus on his 91 indictments.
Anyone else notice legal expert Melissa Murray commenting on his cases with a “team Harry & Meghan” sign behind her?
Trump is the epitome of a clout chaser. He might even be the original, he’s the best, you’ve never seen a better clout chaser, people are saying. He is so irrelevant he has to hitch his wagon to anyone or anything that is getting attention. Always.
Whatever, Trump should be more concerned about his several court cases.
Trump wants to debate Meghan because she doesn’t like him? If he were to debate everyone who doesn’t like him, he would have no time to attend all his upcoming legal proceedings and trials.
What? Why? Why was this question asked? It doesn’t even seem like she was on his radar. I’m not going to listen to that, but what was the context of this interview? ‘All the random people that may have negative thoughts about you that you would debate’?
It’s total lunacy
Conservative white men can’t handle women like AOC and MM bc their racism and sexism have to battle with their attraction. They are young women who are also very smart and no amount of racism can deny their attractiveness. It’s a TNT combo for the cranky old white guy brain.
Very True.
Meghan on his mind. Ew. He wants more attention, I guess.
Of course he talking about things that don’t matter and make no sense and lying about everything else. Big loser energy per usual.
Listen you oversized, orange blimp. The Queen thought you were one of the rudest men she had ever met. You stalked ahead of your wife when you got out of the car “NOT DONE”, in polite society, you made the Queen of England walk BEHIND you, when you inspected HER troops, again NOT DONE “. THE QUEEN and Megan had a lovey relationship, or have you forgotten that Megan herself said the Queen was warm and wonderful to her! And she did NOTHING to the Queen and neither did harry. The ones that hurt the Queen still live in the UK. One thing though, in a way I would love to see the orange man TRY and debate with Megan,, he would sit there drooling and leering at her beautiful face, but he would have met his match if he tried to demean or talk over her. Can you imagine it, trump sat there needing a bib, and Megan saying “Mr trump, get your finger out of my face, oh and here’s a book on self help for you, get someone to read and explain all the long words for your benefit”. 📖😂😂😂
Lol 💯💯 Mary Pester I couldn’t have said it better 🤣
The question to Trump about H&M during his prior presidential run, the debate Meghan comment Trump just made and the false claims that MM has presidential aspirations are all designed imho opinion to make her a target of local “derangers”.
Hmmmm, it this the guy…. that walked infront of the Queen during a troop inspection? I mean he did that on camera. He just strode off infront of her. Now that is rude!
That means he wants to f*ck her. Let’s not pretend Trump sees women in any other way.
Say her name and get clicks. That’s all this is. His base doesn’t care which woman he’s hating, but they especially enjoy him hating a smart Black woman. So, it’s like adding jalapeno to a recipe – you don’t have to add much to make the ingredient scream. In the case of just about anyone on the planet right now, add a dash of the Duchess of Sussex and you get a click.
Meghan or AOC or Michelle Obama would wipe the floor with him. But he’s such an incoherent fool, pretty much anyone with a good head on their shoulders would won in a logical debate. Problem is, his cult followers don’t understand logic or respond to it.
I didn’t even read this tripe. Debate her about what?! She’s not running for office. He can’t be bothered to debate his actual competition because he’s a sad, delusional, mediocre white man (and so are most of the people running on the GOP ticket).
Meghan is the most important person on the planet. I’m exaggerating but…am I? Not sure anymore. Not relevant? Lol what a joke. Everyone is fucking obsessed with her.
Just like a racist misogynist, Trump is likely attracted to Meghan and loathes himself for feeling this way about a “nasty” woman with Black blood. Donald Trump has ALWAYS had deep-seated hatred for non-white people, particularly Black people. These comments are nothing new for him, just red meat for his deplorable followers.
What a stupid question for that radio host to even ask. Why the hell should trump ‘debate’ Meghan or Harry? Why should anybody?
Gotta say, I laughed at the ‘reminded of the original question’ part. Trump just rattles on.
Notice that he didn’t even consider debating Harry, because Harry — a combat veteran — likely scares the shit out of him.
And he needs to keep Meghan’s name out of his disgusting mouth. (Like DeltaJuliet says above, Meghan would wipe the floor with him …)
He needs to worry about his court cases, not to mention the one here in Georgia. Fani is not playing with him or the Republicans. She just told Jim Jordan it’s time for him to deal with REALITY. Trump needs to do the same!
Sir, shouldn’t you be spending time preparing for the MANY court appearances that you have coming up? We won’t be distracted Mango Mussolini.
These old raysist white men would f$ck these ladies in a heartbeat. But they know they don’t have a chance so they insult the ladies instead.
☝🏾This☝🏾
Is this really because he’s still sour about her comments about him on the Nightly Show with Larry Wilmore back in the day?
Ridiculous. Meghan isn’t a politician. She wouldn’t be caught dead in the same room as this infernal serial rapist and treasonous gasbag of evil.
He’s worthless.
Also – he’s not fit to drink her dirty water.
The Cheeto Satan did not show up for his own party presidential debate last month. Now, this thing wants to debate Prince Harry and Megan. Hewitt’s question further proves the media clout chase for clicks. Conservative radio host found a way for the masses to talk about his non-interview with the future felon. Americans, some of you voted for this blurb in 2016, and are still rallying around him.
Trump is ridiculous he is always trying to low grade other people, when in actuality he is the villain, he is the most disgusting man I have ever heard of, he is A rapist, A con artist, A pathetic lier, A thief, A tax invader, A racist, A mobster, he is Treasonous, A sexist, he is felonious, A misogynist, A cult leader, he is snobbish, A bully, A narcissistic and etc. He is the worst of all the politicians that I have heard of. Why Hewitt put the question to Trump about Meghan and Harry is bizarre. It shows how pathetic these right wing followers are, they think it is funny when they intrude on other peoples lives. No doubt they have something strange in mind to humiliate Harry and Meghan. Trump needs to take care of all the 91charges he have against him. These charges is no ones fault but his, he create the problems and his lackies try to fix it for him and get in trouble themselves. Democracy will be destroyed if he gets back in office he is a dictator in waiting, he only like the countries that have dictator’s as rulers, once he get in office he will stay for life, and someone worse is waiting in the back to take over.
