That’s a good one

I’m sure a lot of people would rather the president **** off when this **** happens

That’s why they vet people first

I figure that’s been the M.O. since around Lincoln (should mo be capitalized?)
The point about that was that people basically knew she didn't approve of Diana, whom she saw as not quite a commoner but at least not royal, and was probably pissed that her daughter-in-law was getting more press than her and people loved her more. She was silent on the princess's death, for a long time, which was a deliberate snub, and people saw it as such. She was the "people's princess" (who the **** coined that phrase I wonder?) and they saw the Queen as the evil stepmother or whatever. She miscalculated badly and it took some manoeuvring to get back in the people's good books.
