Fox News personality Raymond Arroyo was called out after he offered a chilling threat of a "bunker buster" to Queen Máxima of The Netherlands after she was caught on video mocking the way President Donald Trump speaks.
The Queen went viral last week after she turned toward news reporters' cameras and twisted her mouth to resemble Trump's speaking style while Trump was in conversation with her and her husband King Willem-Alexander at the Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague, where world leaders were gathered for the NATO summit.
Trump has a habit of keeping his jaw open and his mouth tense; Máxima saw a perfect opportunity to mimic him, making headlines around the world.
You can see the moment in the video below.
But the moment angered Arroyo, who said Máxima was “clearly mocking” Trump—whom he referred to as "Daddy Trump"—and should “be careful” lest she and her nation face consequences.
After guest host Charlie Hurt admitted that the clip of Máxima "kind of looks" like she was making fun of Trump, Arroyo replied:
"She’s clearly making fun of his mouth. She went, you know, doing the Trump lip thing. And by the way, the White House nor the the Netherland Royals will comment on this. But she better be careful."
"You know, she could get a personalized bunker buster from Daddy Trump if she’s not really careful. I mean, she’s gonna go from Queen Máxima to Queen Minima if she is not standing on protocol in the future. This is a bad look for a royal or anybody really."
Arroyo was sharpy criticized for his remarks.
The Queen has not responded to the controversy or addressed Arroyo's remarks.
Arroyo has made headlines for defensive statements regarding Trump before, including early last year when he claimed that Black people were turning away from then-President Joe Biden and toward Trump in the November election because “they love sneakers.”
Arroyo issued his remarks after Trump introduced new "Never Surrender" sneakers—which retail at $399 a pair—at "Sneaker Con," receiving both boos and cheers from the audience. He suggested any criticism of Trump is meritless because he "somehow survives, which must drive his opponents crazy."
