When UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer visited US President Donald Trump last quarter, he made an official state visit to the leader. Trump declared that a return to the UK would be an honor, and he referred to King Charles III as a “beautiful man, a beautiful man.”

There are now rumors that Trump might make a gesture that could make the” special relationship” even more special during his upcoming second state visit. According to The Daily Mail, Charles is reportedly going to offer Trump the chance to join the Commonwealth of Nations as an associate representative.
According to Richard Eden,” Programs are being made for the USA to become the next” equate member” of the Commonwealth.” The King feels particularly significant in a time of global conflict and uncertainty because of his late mother’s strong affection and respect for the global “family of nations.”
The Royal Commonwealth Society (RCS) with the gift of Queen Elizabeth made the first tips for the US joining the Commonwealth during Trump’s first year in office, according to The Sun. Members of the society are holding out for the King to invite Trump to his next appointment as he enters his second term of office.
The president’s response to the studies was intriguing. He shared a message on Truth Social:
One of the arguments in favor of extending the offer is apparently that it might help to lower tensions between the United States and Canada. The prince is the ruler of our northern neighbors, and he is apparently looking to quell the tensions between the two countries.
What would the United States ‘ participation in the Commonwealth think? It doesn’t place us under the purview of the UK, which is what it appears to be. Participation in a Commonwealth would resemble a G7-style empire or perhaps resemble a club.

The Sun explains:
The Commonwealth of Nations is a global organization with 56 member states, many of whom were former British Empire provinces.
The team works with one another economically and socially to spike growth, ties to one another and their use of the English vocabulary and historical-cultural ties.
The Commonwealth times to the first half of the 20th century, when the British Empire experienced widespread decolonization.
King Charles serves as the head of the Commonwealth in addition to his position as king over 15 of the participant state, also known as the Commonwealth realms.

Citizen in one of the member states can frequently be advantageous, especially in the UK.
A list of shared beliefs between its people for democracy, human rights, and the rule of law is defined in the Commonwealth Charter.
A source told the Daily Mail,” This is being discussed at the highest levels.” Donald Trump loves Britain and has a lot of respect for the Royal Family, but we think he would enjoy the benefits of this.” It would be a fantastic move that would symbolize Britain’s close relationship with the United States.
Donald Trump is really an internationalist. His passion for Great Britain was undoubtedly influenced by his mother’s British heritage. It is a stark contrast to Joe Biden’s approach toward the British. The previous president used his European history as an excuse to address one of our biggest allies with harsh, nasty pettiness.

I wrote a letter to Biden nearly two years ago saying that he needs to let his petty, silly Irish resentments go and start negotiations in favor of the” special relationship” because he can still be Irish and respect the British as an American ally. The president has weakened our reputation internationally, so why doesn’t he needed to undermine this alliance as well.
Whether or not a member of the Commonwealth has any significance for Americans could affect the” special marriage.” Eden points out that” When the RCS wrote to Trump in 2017 its then director, Michael Lake, said opening a Commonwealth branch in the U.S. would help the two countries “find imaginative ways” to collaborate.
If King Charles does extend an invitation, it’ll be exciting to see if that happens. If Trump accepts, it will be just as intriguing to watch.
