it was hardly the welcome you would expect for a former king. there was no fanfare, noppon, no ceremony. in fact, the only family member greet one carlos when he arrived with his daughter, princess zelina. but there is a reason for that. one carlos fled to the united arab emirates a couple of years ago after spanish and swiss prosecutors launched an investigation into his alleged financial irregularities. since then, one carlos has paid nearly 700,000 euros in back taxes. investigation was eventually shelved due to lack of evidence and the former king exonerated ——juan of evidence and the former king exonerated —— juan carlos. the public are not too quick to forgive. at the very least, they want an official apology and, some say, he should be treated just like anyone else and brought to justice. treated just like anyone else and brought tojustice. in treated just like anyone else and brought to justice. in a bid to distance himself from the scandal and foster transparency, king felipe vi
making up a story from scratch and then trying to fund raise on it, for me, i think it's just one of the lowest moments because it tells you what the gop has sunk to. they're using hate to try to raise money. they're perpetuating lies after lies, even when they're speaking behind closed doors in these fundraisers to their constituents and they're doing it by dividing the country, not by bringing the country together. >> you talk about intentional islamaphobia. to make up a situation that never happened and then throw your islamaphobia. >> she's so mean that she imagines this but she doesn't even have the courage to throw the insult and the racism in real life so it's just pitiful. what a wimp. >> zelina, what you got? >> well, i think that my worst political moment on the republican side has to be any republican who with a straight face still says they care about life. in a year where abortion rghts
