The Washington stay concluded with a White House State Dinner that featured its fair share of lighthearted moments.<\/p>\n<p>King Charles and Donald Trump both spoke at the dinner toast, and the monarch made sure to make a few jokes, several of which were aimed at Trump.<\/p>\n<p>At the Davos Summit in January, Donald Trump criticized their European allies, saying they have been freeloading on defense since World War II.
