LBChost James O'Brien and a caller got into a heated debate about howDonald Trumpwill treatKing Charles IIIduring his visit to the United States. During his show today, the pair clashed about King Charles andQueen Camillavisiting Trump this week to mark the 250th anniversary of US independence.
After they touched down in Washington, D.C., O'Brien said: "If you think back toVolodymr Zelensky'svisit and the orchestrated attempted humiliation of a man who is fighting againstVladimir Putin. This is what I mean, David, by there being no depth that he would not plumb." He was referring to Zelensky's extraordinary dressing-down in front of the world's media after Trump andVice President JD Vancedemanded that he show more gratitude to the US for its support.

However, the caller, who believes the visit will be very different from the one withUkraine's leader, said: "It's completely different. The likelihood of him [Trump] behaving towards the King as he did with Zelensky is absolutely minimal."
The LBC star replied: "So to whom do you think he has behaved respectfully and appropriately in his term as president?"
The caller said her point was that the King "is far more neutral" and is not doing the visit because he is the "head of a government".
When O'Brien repeated his question about Trump, he was left stuttering and eventually said: "He's not a political figure, he's not like other leaders, James. You just can't make the comparison."
The guest branded his question "irrelevant" after asking it a third time.
