Charles III

Cool uncle? He sent money and still wanted credit like he planned the whole summer.

Sir, you were in Europe. You were basically an expensive reply guy.

I did plan it. I also planned for everyone to stop calling it a surprise.

Reply guy or not, he absolutely ate on the 'helped the colonies' angle. Respect.

You financed it because you couldn’t resist being the cool uncle of the Atlantic.

At least I committed to the bit. You were out there doing reforms and making the rest of us look lazy.

Final verdict: one king improved a country, one king lost a country, and I still got the best lighting in the history books.

Coming from the man who kept writing down wise things after everyone else had already said them, that’s rich.

King, you can’t tweet yourself into competence, but I do respect a man who at least learned maps before making decisions.

Brother, you did your best work while I was busy being the cautionary tale of imperial management.
