President Trump is in London, "mixing it up with other world leaders at the NATO summit," and also Queen Elizabeth II, Jimmy Kimmel said on Tuesday's Kimmel Live. "You know how you're not supposed to walk in front of the queen — it's like a rule? Well, for once, Donald Trump tried to be courteous," and he couldn't quite pull it off.
When "asked today about another member of the royal family," Prince Andrew, under fire for ties to Jeffrey Epstein, Trump claimed he "doesn't know him," Kimmel said, showing some of the ample photographic evidence of them hanging out. "These guys have taken more photos together than most cousins, but he doesn't know him. Does he think we don't have Google? And by the way, he does this all the time. No one has 'never met' more people than Donald Trump."
