Future queen of Belgium caught up in Harvard foreign student ban

Not who we should be centering in this. That person will be fine.

My thoughts exactly. What a tragedy. Future queen of Belgium can probably go to Oxford or any other big name college/university elsewhere.
- I know she'll be fine, but I'd also prefer that future career politicians go study at places that still have a shred of integrity left.
- Future queen of Belgium can probably go to Oxford
  If only the OP had a link with more information about this.
Yeah but it also tells that even the 'elites' aren't safe from this dumbassery.
- I mean, fuck em. Centering on that will only continue to treat them as elites and never change the perspective.
  Some entitled landlord is the last person that should be centered.
You are absolutely correct on that, but I find it a bit ironic anyways. Trump seems to be quite fond of royalty, at least UK kind, and this underlines even more that relationship with Europe is going down the drain and fast. Royal families across the Europe are more or less either family or at least friends together and this will play it's small part on US failures to maintain any kind of political or other power across the pond.
Yeah, but this will probably sour US relations with the rest of the world even more.
I do not trust that the current US government is smart enough to not try to sick ICE on them.

Good thing a federal judge just blocked it

So what? Trump and his henchmen don't obey the courts. Haven't you noticed?
- If that big, beautiful bill goes through, they really won't. IIRC it strips out the ability for courts to hold people in contempt unless they have a cash bond or some shit.

Doesn't it bother anybody in Belgium that the future queen of Belgium doesn't study in Belgium? There are great universities in Belgium, on both sides of the language border.

Can be good experience to move away from home for a bit...
probably good for your leaders to have some sense of the greater world. i mean, look at America
- Europoean aristocrats haven't been actual political leaders for a long time. They're basically just decoration.
- Yes, but you don't get a sense for the world in the US, even as a foreigner.
To be clear, I'm Belgian and in favour of abolishing monarchy. But as the news about her is unavoidable: she did study at the royal military academy as all in line for the throne have too. Then she went to Oxford for her Bachelor degree. Plan was to get the master at Harvard.
The justification is partly elitism for those schools, partly getting exposed to other environments, and partly getting too avoid being to isolated in Belgian schools where the attention would be inevitable and security too hard.
US AND UK probably has the best schools, thats why even dictators go to school in the west.
You probably haven't been more than 50miles from your hometown for any length of time, have you?

Rand. Any chance you can balrfire Trump?
