Meghan Markle 'right' to use her royal title in business venture
Donald Trump appeared to be "no fan" of Prince Harry as he touched on the subject of the royal's visa application.
On Tuesday, Nigel Farage asked the former president whether he would deport Harry if it was found he lied about his drug use.
"We'll have to see if they know something about the drugs, and if he lied they'll have to take appropriate action."
Body language expert Judi James tells Daily Express US that Trump remained a "classic, immovable alpha" throughout the 30-minute interview.
But "his head-wobble evaluation gesture when Harry's name was mentioned suggested he is not a fan, and when he said 'if he lied...' his shoulder shrug and a micro smile of pleasure with a clamped mouth hinted at possible recriminations," she says.

In his memoir Spare, Harry admitted to taking cocaine, cannabis, and psychedelic mushrooms before entering the US, which is typically grounds to reject a visa application.
Harry has lived in the US with Meghan Markle since their exit from the Royal Family in 2020, and now he is reportedly considering becoming a citizen.
Asked if any "appropriate action" would include deportation, Trump demurred: "Oh I don't know. You'll have to tell me. You just have to tell me. You would have thought they would have known this a long time ago."

James adds that Trump "put little effort" into most of the interview as he recycled "well-worn moments from his campaign speeches."
But there is one person that got him to light up for a second: the late Queen Elizabeth II.
"He was emphatic about steering onto the subject of the late Queen so he could roll into his frequently-repeated story about how 'I got to know her really well,'" James said.
Trump also blasted Harry and Meghan's treatment of the former monarch.
"The things that they were saying were so bad and so horrible, and she was in her nineties hearing this stuff. I think they broke her heart," he said
