9. Yes, exactly what I was thinking

as I read Charles speech. He poured on the flattery and the honey, interspersed with the idea that Europe and America are all connected like family to protect each other (mentioning Ukraine)… etc, etc.
Then, when Charles and Camilla retire to their bedroom, she can pat him on the back for his diplomacy and both have a good laugh at rump’s expense. I could almost bet that is exactly what happened.
