Trump Suggests Deporting Prince Harry

Former President Donald Trump has made headlines by suggesting that Prince Harry could face deportation from the United States if Trump were to be re-elected. The comments came during a world-exclusive interview with GB News’ Nigel Farage, where Trump discussed the Duke of Sussex’s future in America, saying that there should be “no preferential treatment” for him.

During a preview of the interview, Trump did not hold back his views on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s impact on the late Queen Elizabeth II. “Although she wouldn’t show it because she was strong and smart, but I would imagine they broke her heart,” Trump said.

“The things that they were saying were so bad and so horrible, and she was in her 90s and hearing this stuff. I think they broke her heart.”

“If they know something about the drugs and if he lied, I’ll have to take appropriate action,” Trump said about Harry. Prince Harry’s use of drugs has been a topic of public discussion over the years. He has been open about his past experiences with substance use, including marijuana and cocaine, in his younger years.

The acknowledgment from Harry came amidst a past conversation about his struggles with mental health, the pressures of royal life, and the intense scrutiny he faced from the media.

His candid disclosure about drug use was a part of a larger narrative shared in his memoir, “Spare,” released in early 2023, where he discusses various aspects of his life, including the challenges he faced growing up in the royal family, his military service, and his decision to step back from senior royal duties along with his wife, Meghan Markle.

The former president floated the idea of “appropriate action” which could imply not allowing Prince Harry to stay in America. Whether Prince Harry could be kicked out of the United States for past drug use touches on U.S. immigration laws and their handling of individuals who admit to using controlled substances.

U.S. immigration law is complex and can be strict regarding the admissibility of individuals with a history of drug use or related offenses. However, the former president has hinted at kicking out the prince before.

Under U.S. immigration law, past drug use can affect an individual’s admissibility. The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) specifies various grounds on which a foreign national can be deemed inadmissible, including certain criminal acts and violations related to controlled substances.

“You would have thought they would have known this a long time ago. You would,” Trump said.”But I thought they were very disrespectful to the family, to the royal family. I’m a big fan of the concept of the royal family and the royal family.”

Trump concluded his thoughts by paying homage to Queen Elizabeth II, praising her reign over 75 years. “Now, I’m a little prejudiced because I thought the queen was incredible. I mean, think of it, all those years, 75 years, she’s almost never made a mistake. It’s almost unbelievable.”
