Donald Trump’s eerie warning to King Charles during US trip revealed by lip reader
A lip reader has claimed to reveal the chilling statement Donald Trump said to King Charles III and Queen Camilla when they arrived in the US.
The British monarch, 77, and his wife, 78, arrived in Washington DC on Monday (27 April) for their much-anticipated four-day state visit across the pond.
Charles and Camilla received posies from children of British military families based in the US, before being greeted by the diplomatic, federal, and state representatives, and walking through an honour cordon formed by US military personnel.
However, their visit has already been slightly overshadowed by the events of the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner at the Washington Hilton on Saturday night (25 April). Trump was surrounded by Secret Service and quickly whisked out of the room after gunshots were heard.

The suspect, who has since been identified as Cole Tomas Allen, has been charged with the attempted assassination of US President Donald Trump. He was also charged with transport of a firearm and ammunition in interstate commerce and with discharging a firearm during a crime of violence.
Questions were raised over whether the state visit would go ahead, and it was eventually decided it would proceed as planned - and it looks like it's still on Trump's mind.
Lip reader Nicola Hickling told the Daily Mail that Trump appeared to say: "This shooting ..."
The King then apparently appeared to respond with: "I'd rather not stand about here too long. I feel I shouldn't be here."
It's reported that the Republican leader asked King if he was okay, adding: "It's not a good thing. I wasn't prepared, but now I am prepared."
Then, he reportedly switched up the conversation to tell the monarch he'd been in touch with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
"So right now, I am talking to Putin," Trump apparently then said. "He wants war."
According to the lip reader, Charles affirmed that they would discuss that topic later, but Trump continued: "I've got a feeling… if he did what he said, he will wipe out the population."
King Charles reportedly tried to change the subject again, apparently saying: "Another time."
The president then took on a more lighthearted approach as he supposedly pointed out his new ballroom to the King and offered to show it to them.
"You can see right through there. Right the way through to the ballroom. Would you like to see?" he is said to have asked, pointing it out.
The King then chuckled before responding: "I'm sure you shall show us."
Tyla has contacted Buckingham Palace and the White House for comment.
