Netflix’s teaser trailer for its upcoming docuseries about Meghan Markle and Prince Harry is getting trashed on YouTube, garnering more than 100,000 “thumbs down” reactions compared to just 15,000 “thumbs up” just one day after being uploaded. Commenters are also mercilessly roasting the trailer, with one user saying it “makes me respect Kate and William so much.” The streamer dropped the trailer for Harry & Meghan on Thursday but has yet to announce a release date for the long-in-the-works series. The teaser, which has already been viewed 2.5 million times on YouTube, begins with a series of black-and-white still shots of the Sussexes set to dramatic music

How odd. I thought that they wanted their privacy. Instead, they are trying to make money by giving the public what is basically an emotion-filled trip through their underwear drawer!! Frankly, there are some things that I will gladly live my life without seeing!! This ridiculous whine-fest is one of them!!

I am interested in the royals, I'll admit it. I admired Queen Elizabeth and her commitment to duty and country and I do respect William and Kate. But Harry and Meghan??? I did have a lot of respect for Harry and his service in the military and his work with wounded warriors. But when he met Meghan, he seemed to go off the deep end. I had never heard of her, but at first glance she seemed nice enough then when she turned on her father I lost any and all respect for her. Subsequent events have only proved that I was right in my assessment.

Just like the Obamas ...they want their privacy until they go all public when they try to sell their books or series..

Yea, I watched it. It did not disappoint. Meghan and Harry don't even like each other, it's clear by all the cloying and ridiculous shots of them spooning and ogling and girating. In Harry's case, he has exchanged a real life, with all of life's difficulties, to a fake one with a fake woman. In Meghan's case, she has cemented her long-standing reputation as a shallow, vain and untrustworthy schemer. Congrats, KIDS!

It’s interesting to watch this play out. Meghan and Harry are the epitome of the woke liberal crowd while William and Kate are following the traditional route of duty. This little drama is the same type playing out all over the world in various forms. We are in a battle for the soul and it is consuming the world. The wokesters in government are actually shutting down farmers in some countries which will necessarily mean food shortages and starvation. It is unimaginable the lengths these leftists will go to appease their climate god. They are willing to sacrifice human beings to this insanity. Many elites like these two twits want to destroy tradition which is something that has worked for centuries to embrace the insanity of a woke agenda. Meghan and Harry are doing their part to destroy the monarchy. While I am no fan, it works for Great Britain. Markle has made it her obsession to destroy what she cannot have and her dolt of a husband is her vehicle. He has turned his back on his family and his country to appease a woman who will never be appeased. Nothing will ever satisfy her. She has what she has always craved, the spotlight and she has a plan to cause as much chaos and division as possible. She is a fraud, liar, and contemptuous bully and Harry is a fool for falling this piece of trash. Only the like-minded woke are keeping them in the news and propping them up. Anyone who has a heart for destruction is a hero to these unhinged leftists.

I want PRIVACY!! NOT! All they want is money and fame. She leads him around like a dog and he goes along with it. Next she will start taking her clothes off in public like all the other female celebrities do in order to get attention. When Netflix hired the Obama's and the Sussexes, I dropped it. BooHoo!!

Those two are spoiled brats. She, although quite beautiful, is stupid and vain. He was born on the wrong side of the blanket but Prince Charles raised him like he was his son. He needs to shut up and be grateful for what he has. After William married and had four children he didn't stand a chance of ever being king. He needs to find something useful to do and quit running around like he is relevant.

While William and Catherine should keep performing their traditional duty to their Country and the Commonwealth, culminating in the years ahead with them being coronated as the King and Queen of their realms, for which they will be remembered throughout history. Harry and Meghan unable to return to the UK after their NETFLIX production said to trash the British Royal Family as being institutional racists becomes public, so chances are they will most most likely continue hanging out with the phony leftist Hollywood royalty, who will certainly abandon them once the money making opportunities run out. The current King could well speed up that abandonment process if he were to remove all of Harry and Meghan’s Royal titles that really don’t mean a hill of beans in today’s socialist California. Anyway for Americans, whatever happens it will be amusing to watch!

This production and its timing were obviously Meghan's attempt to take as much focus away from Kate as she could because she's a scheming selfish hollywood witch. Harry would have been soooo much better off if he had never met the Harpy.

Hahaha, reading some of the comments below the YT video are a hoot, with the, "One Tear, Left Eye," being the underlying sarcasm theme on the thread. The American sense of humor is our single greatest weapon against the self-entitled leftists and "wokies"! Sample Comments Follow: ------------ I love the part where Megain told one show she studied French for 8 years, and another she studied for 4 years, only to lose all her memory of it and now she can’t speak it or understand it. --- Reply: Oh Meghan studied French. French kissing --- --------- What are the stakes??? Someone help me understand why she said “when the stakes are this high…” for who? Why does she make it seems like they are guarding nuclear secrets or something. God, make it stop. --------- I liked her on 'Deal Or No Deal' before she learned to cry on command. -------- I can't stop laughing at Meghan - "when the stakes are this high...." Like she's talking about the Cuban Missile Crisis or something LMAO! ------ I loved the bit where Meghan walked on water, healed the sick and raised the dead. It brought a tear to my left eye. ------ I love the part where Migraine disowned her father and sister for talking to the media, married a Prince and has made a fortune talking to the media about his family knowing full well they won’t respond. So fair and righteous. ------ I like the part where MEghan and Harry walk away from royal life and royal duties citing privacy only to hire their own film crew and photographers to follow them around and sign multimillion dollar deals with Netflix and Book publishers to do TELL ALL's into their private life. Oh yeah, but wait, there's more! Now a couple that wasn't interested in titles or royal duties, NOW wants the titles, without the duties, for future financial gains. ---------------------

My favorite comment was: "There were three of us in this marriage, me, Harry and our photographer." As for the trailer itself, my favorite part was where My favorite part is where Meghan’s doing naked backflips in Times Square with a sparkler clamped in her teeth, demanding privacy.

#1 Please do more research into the background of Prince Hazno and his "service" in Afghanistan. The fact that he CHOSE...deliberately CHOSE...to abandon a Military Function in order to pimp his Yacht Girl wife to Bob Iger, boasting that she did voice acting in order to get her a job as a narrator for a series on endangered elephants (which never made the light of day because it was so bad). He went AWOL on all the military people who propped him up as a Prince. Check out Trevor Coult's videos on U toob. He was one of them who worked with him whilst in Afghanistan. PRINCE HAZNO CHOSE HIS YACHT GIRL WIFE OVER THE MILITARY and the RF has taken away all his connections to it since then...deservedly so. He does not deserve ANY admiration.

Harry was NEVER a helicopter pilot. William was, and so was Uncle Andrew (who flew many missions during the Falklands conflict with honor). Harry couldn’t pass the tests to be a pilot and was relegated, allegedly, to a gunner position but spent most of his “active” time in Afghanistan denigrating locals, abusing hookers and playing video games in his bunker, protected 24/7 by Special Forces. His nickname there was “bunker Harry”. He was eventually quickly removed from the arena when his location was leaked because he then became a security risk to the other REAL soldiers. This has all been documented by soldiers who were there—if u want to hear what some of them think about Harry, look up Trevor Coult on YouTube. Harry is and was a fraud…and a despicable, spoiled brat. I left a few barbs on the Netflix YouTube page regarding this trashy mockumentary. Shame on them and Harry (and his wife, the spawn of Satan).

Add yet another government overreach to the “Things You Didn’t Think Could Happen in America” file: Democrats on the lame-duck House and Ways and Means Committee voted Tuesday to release six years of former President Donald Trump’s tax returns. Why? Because they um, uh—because they want to? But wait, you say to yourself, that’s not possible; your tax returns are private by federal law, and therefore protected from release. The Dems of course found a sleazy way around that. The tax code allows the committee to look at people’s tax returns to provide “oversight” of the Internal Revenue Service, and by writing an official report on their findings,

This clown car of a congressional body is going bye-bye in the next Congress as Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) will not permit its continued existence. Rep.

This week in trendy, innovative cosmetic mutilations for LGBTQ+++™ community members that will further enrich the butchers surgeons at gender-affirming clinics across the country, we have “shoulder width reduction surgery.” Since the advent of medicine itself, a doctor’s first commitment – the Prime Directive of medicine – has been “to first do no harm.” Surgical interventions requiring anesthesia, which inherently involve substantial risk to the patient, were once last-ditch treatments for actual medical conditions where other, less invasive interventions had failed. Now they’re trivialized as a cosmetic thing, on par with an ear piercing or a manicure. Basically, shoulder width reduction works by sawing a section of the clavicle off

In response to the so-called “tridemic” of Covid, flu, and RSV, the Biden administration is again giving out free Covid tests, to the tune of four for each of the ~130 million US households. If you’re counting, that’s 520 million ‘free’ Covid tests. It may sound like a lot, and it is, especially when you consider the massive budget deficit and the environmental costs of continuing to needlessly produce seemingly endless tons of plastic for our landfills and oceans. However, when you consider how much the powers-that-be really want you to test for Covid, it’s a drop in the bucket. Never mind that the virus has attenuated significantly

The question in the title needs, I believe, critical examination. Why DOES the Left hate Trump so much? The answer, as usual, can largely be found by analyzing history. But first. Do they hate him because the average price of a gallon of gas in his administration was far lower than under Biden? Is it because inflation was low (around 2%) and trending downward? Is it that the USA was energy independent and didn’t need to beg our enemies for oil, deplete our strategic oil reserve or sell it to China? Is it because black and Hispanic unemployment was lower than at any time in history?

The sad reality is that the President of the United States, Joe Biden, is a pathological liar. This is not a new personality trait for our Commander-in-Chief, but a characteristic that has been apparent throughout his 52-year political career. Biden has been telling lies, including massive untruths, for decades. It is a major reason he had to exit the 1988 presidential campaign. He lied about his law school grades and plagiarized speeches from United Kingdom Labor Party leader Neil Kinnock. Regularly, Biden lies about his childhood, his family, his academic career, and his record as a politician. Does anyone really believe that, as a young lifeguard,

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said Monday he supports bringing Republican House business to a halt until as late as March next year if it means electing someone besides House GOP Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) to be speaker. Gaetz, one of five outspoken opponents of McCarthy, told Charlie Kirk in an interview he would rather wait weeks and have “sort of a turbulent takeoff” than have McCarthy be speaker. “I’m saying we could see the cherry blossoms bloom and not have a speaker. I hope it doesn’t come to that,” Gaetz said, in reference to the popular flower in D.C. that blooms annually around the end of March.

Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) on Tuesday joined 13 Republicans who vowed to tank any priorities of GOP senators who vote for the 4,155 page omnibus bill that was negotiated with Democrats before a new Republican majority could take control of the House. Reps. Chip Roy (R-TX), Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Scott Perry (R-PA), and Andy Biggs (R-AZ), along with nine other conservatives House members, signed a letter Tuesday promising to block any priorities of the Republican senators who rushed to support the omnibus deal with Democrats just days before Congress leaves town for Christmas.
