"My relationship is very good with the U.K., and Charles, as you know, who’s now king, is my friend," Trump told reporters, quoted by the outlet. "It’s the first time this has ever happened where somebody was honored twice. So, it’s a great honor."
"And this one’s at Windsor," Trump added. "And I don’t want to say one’s better than the other, but they say Windsor Castle is the ultimate, right? So, it’s going to be nice."
"Primarily it’s to be with Charles and Camilla," he continued. "They’ve been friends of mine for a long time, long before he was king, and it’s an honor to have this king."
