A British guest on MSNBC Live has sparked outrage after saying 'many people' consider Meghan Markle to be 'five clicks up from trailer trash'. The show's anchor, Lindsey Reiser, ended the interview about Prince Harry and Meghan stepping back from royal duties immediately following the remark from British reporter Victoria Mather.
The comment from the journalist - who has worked for The Telegraph and Vanity Fair - came as she was discussing how the Duchess of Sussex has been 'disrespectful' to the royal family and its protocol.

Five clicks is too generous.

The truth hurts. It makes me cringe that a fellow citizen is such a poor representative of this great nation.

I am quite sure the people said the same thing about the Duchess of Windsor who caused the king's abdication.

She doesn't even rate as trailer trash. She's far below that. Anyone who thinks getting someone to leave their entire family and home, give up their title, keeps their child hidden from everyone, even his great-grandmother - she's beneath trailer trash. She is an abuser incapable of love. Poor Harry.

The Markles are two of the most annoying persons in the "news" today--- not the only ones, but they are at the crowded top of the list.

Predictably, the journalist is being called "racist." Listen, you nits. The trailer trash comment is based on Megan's
behavior, not her race. Your position seems to be that all persons o' (however slight) color are immune from even valid criticism.

I think she is attractive, but she always looks like she is acting in some movie star role. There is a lack of genuineness about her. Harry does not look like he is acting. He looks a little miserable. I wondered about her when she seemed to distance herself from her family (except her Mother) and when she worked at getting Harry to leave his family. The one really good thing about her is she said she didn't want to live in the US while PDJT is President. Now if she will only keep that promise.

People who live in trailers respect family. I think anyone who is being compared to Markle should feel insulted.

Somebody should have reminded Harry what the Latin saying Caveat Emptor meant! Sold AS IS, Harry. Your fault for not inspecting the condition of the merchandise.

It's pretty funny because "trailer trash" refers to poor WHITE people. It's not inherently a racist comment. It also demonstrates the stupidity and knee jerk reactions of media that does call it racist.

You would have to expect MSNBC to take such action against that British reporter as they are extremely politically correct and are not in business to disseminate the truth, but are in the business of creating controversy.

How can Meghan be trailer trash when the Clooneys, Obamas, and Oprah love her?

If she had said that about PDJT the anchor would have purred, "Please go on. I love the way you're talking."

She was not raised in a trailer. She was raised in Hollywood.

That was actually a good thing #4. Turns out that Edward was a nazi sympathizer. Who knows how western civilization would have fared if he had been king in 1940. There may not have a been a prime minister Churchill.

She's pretty, but that just gets her through the door. She must have much more to stay there. It looks like she doesn't. Pretty I can find at any mall or Wal-Mart.

So they cut off the one person who says what most people are thinking. I agree that five clicks is way too generous a description.

#7, those people probably think that only black people live in trailers.

I was inside a gas station in south western Wyoming about 20-25 years ago, and in come a couple of 6 or 7 year old kids, amazingly grubby, dirty faces, runny noses, dirty hands, dirty shirts, snarled unkempt hair, running around and playing loudly. I was taking this all in, thinking "amazingly grubby kids" when Momma walked in. Late 20s, fat, nearly as grubby as the kids, and went over to pay for her gas. It was all I could do to stifle a loud laugh when I saw what was printed on the back of her T-shirt.
"Oil field trash" at the shoulder level, then a cartoon of grubby people, and below that
"...and proud of it."
Well, clearly no delusions about their chosen station in life.

Trailer trash sounds about right. Neither Sussex’s Black mother or father like this piece of work much. She spreads unhappiness wherever she tries to make a buck. School on Saturday - no Class.
