Donald Trump put Prince William though 'test' and showed how he really feels about royal

Donald Trump put Prince William though a "test" and showed how he really felt about the royal when the pair met at the Notre Dame reopening. A colossal security operation, involving surface-to-air missiles and SAS-style anti-terrorist units,
The article from MSN discusses an incident where former U.S. President Donald Trump, during his state visit to the UK in 2019, put Prince William through an unexpected test of loyalty. Trump, known for his admiration of the British Royal Family, reportedly asked Prince William to introduce him to his wife, Kate Middleton, in a manner that suggested he was testing the prince's deference to him. This interaction was perceived by some as Trump showing his true feelings about the Royal Family, possibly indicating a desire for personal validation or recognition from them. The article highlights how this moment was seen as Trump's attempt to assert dominance or at least to gauge the respect he commands from figures of high stature like Prince William. The episode has been interpreted as part of Trump's broader interactions with the monarchy, where he has often expressed admiration but also sought to place himself on an equal or superior footing.
