She knew all about Trump's birth or attack on Obama, pushing that false narrative he wasn't born in the U.S. But the Queen shut that down quick, showing mad respect for the first black president from day one. Her bond with the Obama's was tight, and folks like Ben Rhodes said a gay Obama big validation back home. Trump's moves didn't sit right with her either.
