Harry & Meghan are meddling in US election with hollow statements while cosying up to Bidens… we Americans are disgusted
PRINCE Harry and Meghan Markle’s foundation recently issued what has been called a ‘publicly neutral’ statement encouraging American citizens to register to vote ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
This announcement, made on National Voter Registration Day through their Archewell Foundation, positions the couple as champions of civic engagement.
How hollow its professed impartiality sounds considering the track record of the failed royal social justice warriors inserting themselves into divisive issues — on the left — from race relations to America’s constitutionally guaranteed right to free speech.
To add insult to injury, today the Duke of Sussex travels to New York to participate with American First Lady Jill Biden in the Clinton Global Initiative — in the bosom of Democrat darlings.
Without further context, Archewell’s released statement emphasising voting as a fundamental tool for community influence and calls for informed civic participation seems noble enough.
Yet, the timing and history of the Sussexes’ engagement raise serious questions about their motives.
While they assert a commitment to remaining politically neutral, their intentions become murkier considered alongside next week’s love fest with Democrat standard bearers, Dr. Jill Biden and the Clintons.
It’s not as though to prove their political neutrality, the Prince of Montecito and his wife Meghan are balancing their time at the odd NRA gun rally or even a Mar-a-Lago gala.
Harry and Meghan’s latest foray into political advocacy comes amid ongoing scrutiny of their divisive actions and statements.
Historically, their involvement in US politics has not been without controversy.
In the lead-up to the 2020 election, their comments sparked significant backlash, leading many to question the appropriateness of their role as former royals in American political discourse.
Despite their desire to appear neutral, Meghan’s openly expressed disdain for former President Trump is widely recognised, having been remarked upon by the Don himself.
Why on earth would anyone pay heed to the opinions of this pair who have exploited Harry’s birthright to line their pockets and establish a privileged persona in California?
Not to mention their penchant for weighing in on any matter, despite their total lack of credentials or authoritative voices in political matters.
Their lack of real engagement in the political process is evident: Harry, a foreign-born prince, has never voted in his birth nation and cannot vote in the United States, profoundly diminishing his voice as authoritative on voter participation.
“Grifters”
The perception of Harry and Meghan as “grifters,” a term used by Hollywood insiders who have worked with them, reflects a broader public sentiment regarding their authenticity.
Critics view their public statements and appearances as a means to enhance their personal brand rather than a sincere effort to contribute to democratic processes.
This perception is compounded by their history of being labeled as divisive figures, further alienating potential supporters.
Their engagement with the political sphere is viewed not as an altruistic effort but as an opportunistic maneuver to bolster their relevance.
Moreover, the timing of their voter registration push coincides with Kamala Harris’s stalling campaign, which looks increasingly to celebrity endorsements to extend its vibrancy.
The Sussexes’ election intrusions raise suspicions about whether their motivations are genuinely about voter engagement or simply about aligning with the progressive political elite to enhance their own visibility.
While Harry and Meghan call for civic engagement, their presence in American politics is inherently problematic.

Their royal associations and Harry’s foreign origins render them outsiders in a political landscape that is deeply rooted in national identity.
The notion that failed British royal public servants seek to influence American civic participation is eye-rolling.
This intrusion is not merely a matter of opinion; it raises essential questions about who gets to influence American politics.
Should a British prince and his actress wife, who are often mocked for their perceived hypocrisy and lack of substance, really be weighing in on substantive issues?
Harry and Meghan’s intrusions are not only hypocritical and unwelcome but also inappropriate given that the Prince is not even a US citizen.
His position undermines the democratic process, especially when he and his wife utilise their royal titles or affiliations.
While figures like the King, the Prince of Wales, the Edinburghs and the Princess Royal engage in meaningful work representing the UK on a global scale, the Sussexes pursue a self-serving agenda of promotion and financial enrichment.
Their political ideologies, and allies have long been known, and any efforts to purport neutrality are risible.
Flirtations with the Clintons, Bidens, and Harris defy any pathetic statements of impartiality.
Ultimately, the American public isn’t swayed by Sussexes’ antics; they have their own pressing concerns and won’t be distracted by grifters’ commentary.
Last summer, Harry was criticised as a figure too divisive, privileged and controversial to receive an award in the name of fallen Army hero Pat Tillman.
His latest actions, and his and his wife’s history wading into political debates in his host country should disqualify him decisively from the possibility of ever again resuming anything that even remotely smacks of royal duties.
