Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been torn apart by Republicans over their « woke' » statement ahead of the 2024 presidential race.
Earlier this week, Meghan and Harry shared a statement via their Archewell website to encourage Americans to register their vote.
Speaking of the statement, Greg Swenso – a London-based financier and Chairman of Republicans Overseas UK – told the MailOnline: « They can’t help themselves. By encouraging people to vote they are essentially ballot harvesting for Kamala.
« You don’t have to say it. Like the man sitting in his car, alone, with a Covid mask on: you don’t need a bumper sticker, we know who you voted for ».
He claims that by releasing the statement, Meghan and Harry – who reside in California – will not influence Americans and instead, potentially ingratiate themselves with the « Hollywood woke elites » they wish to impress.
The couple – who live with their two children in California – wrote: « In honor of National Voter Registration Day, The Archewell Foundation team came together for a meaningful volunteer activity to support and empower our communities.
« Using Vote Forward’s impactful letter-writing tool, our team wrote personalised letters encouraging unregistered voters to take a crucial step: registering to vote. »
They added: « Voting is not just a right; it’s a fundamental way to influence the fate of our communities. At The Archewell Foundation, we recognize that civic engagement, no matter one’s political party, is at the heart of a more just and equitable world. »
In their carefully worded statement, Meghan and Harry also wrote: « By participating in initiatives like this, we aim to amplify the message that every voice matters. »
Criticising the couple further, Mr Swenso added: « Every move Harry and Meghan make is carefully orchestrated to keep them popular among their circle of elites. Most woke Hollywood elites are voting for Kamala – but I’m surprised they haven’t outright endorsed her. The only thing left for her to do now is to run for office.
« I don’t think they would move the needle – they are known as woke celebrities. I don’t think there is any mystery regarding their views that are consistent with the progressive left (Kamala). The voters who like Harry and Meghan would probably vote Kamala anyway. I don’t think they would change anyone’s vote. »
It has been reported that Meghan and Harry will remain politically neutral – just as they were expected to as senior royals.
