while Charles has a very embarrassing reprobate of a brother, Charles himself was never implicated in any wrongdoing re: Epstein, so he could de-royal his brother without any danger of (now) Andy Windsor coming back at him with allegations of his own. Charles had nothing to lose by kicking his brother out of the monarchy, and probably some good PR to gain. But Trump is in a different situation. He's in the Epstein files, and almost certainly not in a good way (my guess is that he wasn't so much a john but one of the pimps along with Epstein, and there's a money trail). So I doubt very much that His Majesty will be able to persuade Trump to come clean with those files.
