Former President Donald Trump went on the record to share his disapproval of President Joe Biden for not attending the coronation of King Charles III.
“Certainly, he should be here as our representative of our country,” Trump told Nigel Farage in an interview with GB News Wednesday. “I was very surprised, I think it’s very disrespectful for him not to be here.”

Instead, the president spoke with Britain’s soon-to-be king over the phone Tuesday, congratulating him on his pending coronation. The call was not mentioned on Biden’s daily schedule, with the White House releasing a summary in the late afternoon. Trump seemed to imply Biden was not attending due to his aging physical condition.

“I don’t think he can do it physically, actually, I think that it’s hard for him to do it physically,” Trump said. “He’s got a lot of things going, a lot of strange things happened.”

Charles’s coronation will take place on Saturday, May 6, at Westminster Abbey in London.
The coronation ceremony is a tradition that dates back 900 years in England. Charles will be the oldest British king to be crowned and will be the oldest person to become the U.K.’s monarch. Similarly, Biden, who Farage pointed out has English relatives, was also the oldest to be elected following the 2020 election at the age of 77.
