Prince Harry can relax in Montecito because former President Donald Trump has decided not to deport him. This might come as a surprise since there were discussions about possible consequences if Harry misrepresented his past drug use on his U.S. visa application. So, why did Trump change his tune?
The Visa Controversy
The issue stems from Harry’s own memoir, Spare, where he admitted to using cocaine, cannabis, and psychedelics. Under U.S. immigration law, past drug use can be a reason for visa denial or even deportation. The conservative Heritage Foundation has pushed for transparency, questioning whether Harry disclosed this information when applying for his visa.
Despite this, Trump has now made it clear that he has no intention of deporting Prince Harry. Many expected him to take a tough stance—so what’s really behind his decision?
Trump’s Personal Opinion on Harry and Meghan
Trump’s decision seems to be driven by his personal feelings rather than strict immigration policy. He has long been critical of Meghan Markle, calling her “terrible” and suggesting that Harry is “whipped.”
“I’ll leave him alone. He’s got enough problems with his wife,” Trump told The New York Post.
This suggests that Trump sees Harry as more of a victim rather than someone who deserves punishment. He has often expressed sympathy for men he believes are being dominated by their partners, and this might be another example.
Trump’s Admiration for Prince William
Another possible reason is Trump’s admiration for Prince William. Unlike Harry, William has stayed out of political drama and maintained a polished royal image. Trump recently met William in Paris and spoke highly of him, calling him “a great young man.”
By letting Harry stay, Trump might be making a subtle dig at Meghan while also showing favor to William. He may view this as reinforcing traditional values within the royal family.
Political Strategy
Trump is known for making strategic political moves, and this situation is no exception. Immigration is a key issue for him, but deporting a high-profile figure like Prince Harry could create unnecessary controversy. It might even turn some of his own supporters against him, as Harry still has a significant fan base.
Moreover, Trump’s immigration policies have focused on people he perceives as threats to security or economic stability. Harry doesn’t fit that category. By letting him stay, Trump avoids a politically messy situation while still appearing strong on immigration overall.
A Smart Move, Not a Policy Shift
Trump’s decision isn’t about changing his stance on immigration—it’s about personal views and political advantage. He dislikes Meghan, admires William, and likely sees Harry as someone who’s already facing enough struggles.
By keeping Harry in the U.S., Trump gets to make a point without creating unnecessary drama. It’s a calculated move, proving once again that in politics, personal opinions often play a bigger role than official policies.
