Former President Donald Trump has suggested he would consider an offer from King Charles III for the United States to become an 'associate member' of the British Commonwealth.
The revelation comes after reports that the King intends to extend the invitation, with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer reportedly delivering a letter from the monarch to Trump. Trump, who has expressed admiration for King Charles, responded positively to the idea, saying it 'sounds good' to him. The proposal has sparked debate, given the historical significance of the U.S. declaring independence from Britain nearly 250 years ago.
It remains unclear whether such a move would have any formal implications or if it is merely symbolic.

Absolutely not—America fought a whole war to get out from under British rule, and we’re not about to start cozying back up to the monarchy now. This sounds like just another unnecessary entanglement that would chip away at U.S. sovereignty.
