banquet filled with 160 guests, Donald Trump raved about visiting with the royal family.
"This is truly one of the highest honors of my life. I have such respect for you and such respect for your country for many decades," the Republican gushed in his
speech at the event.
Before landing in the U.K., Donald told the press how excited he was to see the highest-ranking members of The Firm. "It's going to be nice. Primarily, it's to be with Prince Charles and Queen Camilla," he said while messing up Charles' new title. "They're friends of mine for a long time, long before he was king, and it's an honor to have this king."
