This week, we analyze Charles’s three-day power play in Washington D.C. - his first as monarch - and how it uses the 250th anniversary of American independence to reinforce the \"Special Relationship\" through high-level political engagement.</p><p><br></p><p>We compare this to the Sussexes’ Australian itinerary and other monetising habits which arguably separate them from Royal Life and Duty more than they seem to be aware of. Will the King see Harry on his trip across the pond? Probably not. Will Trump invite Harry in a surprise reunion for Charles?
